So it was when I’m moving to a specialised presidential school, I don’t want to get out of my previous school because their teacher is so kind and helpful, but in that moment I moved there. And in Saturdays we don’t have any classes there, so I go to my previous school and one One day the director of the school said to me, hey Desmond, you can’t come here from now on because you already left the school and you have to study there. Like why? And I go home crying because I can’t, I wasn’t that social person when I was there. So my mom said, hey Desmond, Your level is upper now, so you have to study there. We didn’t force you to study there. It’s your choice, so study there. And I go to school and at first, our teacher speaks in English and we didn’t even understand anything. Just ah, ah, that’s all. And now we can easily speak in English and even gossip with that teacher. And right now I can say I’m really a social person like extrovert. I can speak whenever I want. Like I can tell my own opinion, not like other schools. So right now I think my thinking level or logical level is opposite from another students. and also I don’t like to go to school because in my previous school students have already boyfriends or girlfriends and they’re having relationships so but in my current school there’s nothing you just have to study your focus on study and we are the best students at Zinc.

So it was when I moved to a specialized presidential school. I didn't want to leave my previous school because the teachers were so kind and helpful, but at that moment, I moved there. On Saturdays, we didn't have any classes, so I would go to my previous school. One day, the director of the school said to me, "Hey Desmond, you can't come here from now on because you already left the school, and you have to study there." I asked, "Why?" and went home crying because I wasn't a very social person when I was there. My mom said, "Hey Desmond, your level is higher now, so you have to study there. We didn't force you to study there; it's your choice, so study there." I went to school, and at first, our teacher spoke in English, and we didn't understand anything. Just, "ah, ah," that's all. Now we can easily speak in English and even gossip with that teacher. I can say I'm really a social person now, like an extrovert. I can speak whenever I want and express my own opinion, unlike in other schools. I think my thinking level or logical level is different from other students. I also don't like going to school because in my previous school, students already had boyfriends or girlfriends and were having relationships, but in my current school, there's nothing; you just have to focus on studying, and we are the best students at Zinc.
