What are those memories about? Are they about your family or maybe your student days?<br>I have an unforgettable memory from 5 years ago. Since childhood, I have always been an active and independent girl. I studied hard in junior high school. The days were tough and required a lot of effort from me. On graduation day, I did everything I could to get into my favorite school. I was nervous on the day of the exam, but I felt great when it was over. However, God didn&#8217;t grant me good results. On the day the results were announced, I was shocked by the bad outcome and felt very disappointed.<br>I felt as if I had lost my way. I was embarrassed to meet friends, teachers, and family. At that time, I didn\u2019t want to do anything or think about anything. I cried a lot. I thought about giving up all my dreams. My family comforted me and said they wanted me to go back to school. I always thought I had to try various things. I dreamed of soaring higher. I wanted to go far to learn and experience. I studied hard every day and then decided to keep striving. Finally, I reached a brighter corner of the future.<br>Now, I have come to Japan as an international student and am always working hard. I have been living in Japan for a year and a half, studying while working. I also passed the entrance exam to a vocational school. In the future, I want to work hard to obtain permanent residency and open a restaurant in Japan. I don&#8217;t have family in Japan, but thanks to my teachers, I have learned and grown a lot. I will continue to challenge myself and strive to realize my dreams. If you all keep working hard, surely there will be opportunities. Let&#8217;s pursue our future dreams and never give up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What kind of memories do you all have? What are those memories about?
