I used to be very shy. I was afraid I would do or say something wrong, so usually I just listened to other people's conversations. My teacher Mrs. Smith always encouraged me to communicate with others.

After five months of practicing, the big day finally arrived.

That’s the most important thing.”
I smiled because I knew she was right. The time when I stepped on the stage and people applauded(鼓掌) , I showed that I could take chances and be brave to make a big change for myself—a girl with her newly-found confidence.
