My life began in a small village called Pint Sin Tae in Ban Mauk township in northern region of Myanmar and it is populated with Kadu ethnic people. My family, like most families in the region, worked hard as gold miners but struggled to make ends meet. Our village lacked basic amenities such as electricity, functional primary schools, medical facilities, and road access to cities. Despite these hardships, I have many found memories of the simple joys of life.

When I was eight, my parents decided to send me to live with my aunt in Wuntho to pursue a good education. They knew the importance of education and did not want me to follow the same path as others in the region, who seldom finished primary school and went to work in gold mines. Although the decision was difficult for my parents, they were willing to make the financial sacrifice to ensure I had a better future.

Moving to Wuntho was a big adjustment for me, and I struggled initially. However, I preserved, made new friends, and started studying in a big school. Despite not being the brightest student, I always tried my best and took my studies seriously. I learned valuable life skills such as managing my allowances, doing house chores, and taking care of myself. These experiences made me more independent and self-sufficient from a young age.

After completing my matriculation exam, I spent several months in my village due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When I returned to Wuntho, I worked as a salesgirl in Yan Aung store to improve my english and save up for university. However, the military coup in February 2021 delayed my plan to attend the university, and I had to leave Wuntho due to the phone and internet shutdowns. I then moved to Mandalay in 2022 May to improve my English and Mathematics and prepare for further study abroad. Starting a new managed to sit SAT Mathematics exam in 2022 December, and now currently, I am preparing to sit IELTS English test in June.

My commitment to education and improving he lives of my village is unwavering. That is why I am determined to learn about economics and business in my bachelor's degree. With this knowledge, I hope to create small and medium-sized economic opportunities in my village that can provide better living standards for the residents. I want to empower the people in my village and help them build a sustainable future for themselves, one that does not rely solely on gold mining.

My experiences have taught me the importance of education, independence, and resilience. Even though my life has been fulll of challenges and hardships, I have always managed to endure them, and I am committed to making a positive impact in the lives of others.

is a predictive text application for mobile phones, developed by KeyPoint Technologies, a UK-based software company. The application is designed to improve text entry on mobile devices by making it faster and error-free. It achieves this by predicting the next word as well as the word being typed, continuously adapting to the user's writing-style and vocabulary.

History and product features

Launched in 2006, Adaptxt supported Windows Mobile smartphones only. Adaptxt provides features such as context-based next-word suggestions, word completion, personal dictionary, dynamic language detection, conversion from SMS language to standard English and vice versa, multilingual text entry and a feature that learns new words and context while typing.[1]

The application stores the new words in the user’s personal dictionary, where they can be edited. KeyPoint also claims that Adaptxt users can type in any of the installed languages without changing their keyboard language or dictionary, thanks to an engine capable of recognizing the language in use. This feature is supposed to be an added value for users who are bi-lingual or occasionally type in a foreign language.[2]

A version for Symbian S60 smartphones was released in 2008, with improved support for third-party applications.[3]

In April 2009, KeyPoint introduced a feature to scan personal data, including calendar entries, phonebook contacts, SMS and email inbox and sent items. The “Scan Facebook” feature learns words from the user’s Facebook profile. The new words learnt are added to the personal dictionary and offered as suggestions during text entry.[4]

Later that year, KeyPoint also launched a new version of Adaptxt with error correction. This feature provides alternative suggestions for incorrect spellings. Automated correction of spelling mistakes were also made available, with an option to revert to the exact word entered by the user in case of unwanted corrections. All these features can now be found in the Symbian version of the product and most of them can also be found in the Windows Mobile version.[5]

KeyPoint was also the first software company to introduce professional add-on dictionaries that provide industry-specific word and phrase suggestions related to a particular profession, such as medicine, law, IT and telecommunications, business and finance.[5] Users can download additional language and professional dictionaries from the product website directly to their devices.

In May 2011, KeyPoint made Adaptxt open source through the project "OpenAdaptxt".[6]

An Android-compatible version of the application has been launched in November 2011.[7]
