“I’m thankful for the opportunities I’ve had. The family that [has] been supporting me throughout my life. Every stage, every phase. And also my friends. Because even if I was in low grounds, depressed or emotionally bad or down, they help me too.
What else? Oh, I mean, I can say the school. The school has been pretty generous with me. Classmates, teachers. I think it’s awesome. So, I’m thankful for my family, friends and overall the community I’m around.”
