The time I felt really proud of a member of my family was when my younger sister prepared for an important school competition. She's my younger sister, and she has always been shy and quiet. Last year, she decided to take part in a public speaking contest at her school. At first, she was very nervous and even thought about quitting, but she practiced every single day, memorized her speech, and worked hard on her confidence and presentation skills. In the end, she performed amazingly well. She didn't win first place, but she received a special award for being the most improved speaker, which was a big achievement for her. Her actions made me feel proud because I saw how much effort she put into improving herself. She didn't give up. Even though it was difficult watching her overcome her fears and speak in front of so many people showed me how strong and determined she can be. It also reminded me that hard work really pays off.
