I'd like to talk about my 10th grade when I transferred to another school and had to adapt to a completely new environment where I didn't know anyone and had to change all of my habits. It was a very hard time for me. I transferred to this school in the summer, and I had to pass an interview and an exam. I successfully passed this stage, but when I arrived at the school, I felt very anxious. It was a big stress for me. I remember walking around the school alone, feeling lonely, and it was a challenging time for me. However, my relatives tried to support me during this time, and my boyfriend told me that it was completely normal to feel this way. The support from my loved ones gave me the energy to get through this moment in my life. I was there because my previous school wasn't meeting my needs.
