“My attitude is that if you push me towards something that you think is a weakness, then I will turn that perceived weakness into a strength.” -Michael Jordan
I was taken aback when I was named the best player. I was maintaining my composure and couldn’t hear my name clearly. Once Farzana ma’am put down her microphone, a Yellow House teacher informed me that you had been called to accept the honor. Go fast! Then, I was like ‘ME’. My heart raced, and a mix of excitement and disbelief flooded over me. With shaky legs, I hurriedly made my way to the stage, the cheers of my classmates amplifying the surreal moment. As I reached the podium, I could feel a blend of pride and humility washing over me. Accepting the award, I couldn’t help but reflect on the hard work and dedication that brought me to this point, grateful for the support of my peers and mentors. It was a moment etched in my memory, a sweet surprise that will forever be a cherished chapter in my life.
