NICE TO MEET YOU!

Hello, my name is Raina. High school isn't an easy place, especially for someone like me who's awkward and always feels invisible. But everything changed when I decided to join the school's theater club. From embarrassing moments on stage to unexpected friendships, a story full of laughter, tears, and valuable lessons unfolded.

The first time I stood on stage, my legs trembled, and my words came out jumbled. However, behind the stage lights and theater curtains, I discovered a hidden courage. New friends arrived, bringing warmth and laughter that chased away the loneliness. With them, I learned that failure isn't the end, but the beginning of a bigger story.

During this journey, I realized that life isn't about reaching the final destination but about every small step we take along the way. Every laugh, every tear, every warm hug, all shape who I am today. Perhaps, in the end, what matters most isn't what we achieve, but how we grow and change throughout the journey."

As I stand here today, looking back on everything that has happened, I can't help but smile. I'm grateful for every moment, every challenge, and every person who has walked this path with me. So, to my past self who felt invisible and unsure, and to everyone who has just met me

"Nice to meet you!"
