Bianca Jemi Wariyava, a 12-year female student of seventh grade fulfilled her dream of buying an iPhone14. Bianca, who lives in Dubai along with her parents, wanted buy her dreamed smartphone.
Unfortunately, her parents were not financially strong enough to buy her a smartphone of her choice.
Ultimately, after school-hours, Bianca starting selling home-made breads. Within six months, she was able to buy iPhone14.
Her Filipina mother Gemini Wariyava once baked her some bread for school for lunch which she shared with her friends.
“They loved the taste and fluffiness of the bread. They loved it so much they asked me to bring some again the next day,” Bianca told Khaleej Times.
One day, One of her classmates gave her the idea of selling the bread instead of giving them for free. This idea clicked the mind of Bianca and it turned out to be a turning point for her to materialize her dream.
Luckily, the parents are Bianca are expert bakers and have worked in five-star hotels in Dubai. Bianca’s parents supported their daughter. Father gave her 100 Dirhams while mother gave her baking training.
Finally, the seventh grade schoolgirl was able to earn money and buy iPhone14 which was a dream for her six months ago.
“She had been helping us bake at our pizza parlour when she was five years old. She has been interested in baking since then,” said Gemini.
Bianca’s success story is very interesting. On the first day, she could sell only four pieces but after a few days, Bianca started selling over 60 pieces a day. She not only bakes plain flavors, but also others like plain soft rolls, oreo, ube, cheese, turkey salami with cheese, and chicken franks.
And just like that, Bianca had collected nearly Dh3,000, enough to buy an iPhone 14.
The little girl shared that she was at times made fun of in school.
“A few students looked down on me. They spoke among themselves, saying ‘why can’t she ask her parents directly for a phone rather than selling bread?’ They even questioned our financial status,” Bianca said.
