Beamlak A. TeenzTalk Peer Leader
1. What are you passionate about?
​2. What have you learned from challenges or disappointments?
3. How do you relieve stress?
4. What is happiness?

1.) PASSION: Beamlak's passion is volunteering in community services, especially involving the youth. He feels a deep fulfillment in teaching underprivileged children. Through a summer program this year, he taught science, engaged in social activities, & provided educational material to the underprivileged students of Addis Ababa. By the end of the program, he experienced a strong family connection with the group. A video clip of the enthusiastic class is included at the end. 
2.) GROWTH: Beamlak performed very poorly on an exam, which brought down his school ranking significantly. This setback fueled him to study more diligently & prepare through a variety of learning activities. Since then, he has worked hard to hold the top rank every semester. "The idea of this story is making change to our disappointment & being the best we can be. [Then] we can overcome any obstacle in our life."
3.) STRESS RELIEVERS:
  • paint or draw
  • depict various elements of your society
  • read interesting books - get lost in the life of the characters
  • observe nature
  • walk outside
4.) HAPPINESS: Beamlak describes happiness as self-fulfillment & the idea that, "you can achieve success through hard work & motivation". He also emphasizes that happiness in Ethiopia is a gathering of the whole village, "enjoying each other's company".
