This term hasn't been very easy for me. Among other things, I had to change schools. But day by day I realise that it is a great thing to learn and experience new things. I see that I'm making progress bit by bit towards realising my dreams and goals.
It's not easy for me to be sociable, but in my new school I'm managing this better and this makes me feel very good. I know that I can be more sociable.
I am very happy that you are supporting me. Thank you.
I think this year is going to be quite hard, as I'm now in the last three years at high school. I want to try hard and achieve good results. Thank you to everyone who is helping me. I will try to do my best.
