So today I would like to share about the decision I made regarding how I spent my summer holiday, which was in 2024. Right after I finished school, like many other students, I wanted to change my plans. I had two options. The first one was to join my friends in a trip to a nearby town. The second one was to go to the countryside and live with my grandparents. I was torn between the two because both choices were really meaningful to me. The trip to the town promised a once-in-a-lifetime experience, while the countryside option meant I could spend time with my grandparents, whom I hadn't seen for a month and really missed. Since the holidays were just around the corner, I had a couple of days to come to a conclusion. At first, I thought I should go to the countryside and visit my grandparents. However, in the end, I changed my mind and decided to go on the trip to the town with my friends. That was one of the most meaningful choices I made because I spent a lot of happy times with them, and I could also challenge myself by navigating the city without my parents. In the end, I felt really happy, and I believe that was one of the most important decisions I made for myself. Thank you for listening.
