I was born on September 27 by caesarean section. I am the youngest in our siblings. The eldest is Roxan, next is Ria, and I am the last. My mother and father are both working as cafeteria staff when they met. From being co-workers, they started as friends, until eventually their friendship blossomed into love. They fell in love with each other, got married, and built the family that I now belong to. Even if life has never been easy for them, they managed to give us a happy home, and for that I am always grateful.

When I was a child, I had many unforgettable experiences, and not all of them were pleasant. I almost drowned once, I accidentally drank gasoline, my foot got cut very deeply by a broken bottle and needed stitches, and another time my head was pierced by an iron. Because of that accident, I developed a fear of heights that I still carry with me. These incidents made my childhood far from being completely happy, but they also made me more aware of life’s fragility. They taught me to be more careful and to value safety.

But of course, not all of my memories are bad. Along with those accidents were moments of joy and laughter that I continue to cherish. As I grew older, I met many wonderful friends who made my life brighter. One of my closest friends is Christopher Paengchan. He has been with me since elementary, then in high school, and now even in college. Our friendship has stood the test of time, and he has always been one of the people I know I can rely on.

My elementary days were filled with fun and innocence. I remember playing games with classmates, laughing during recess, and discovering the joy of learning new things. But high school brought with it an unexpected challenge—the COVID-19 pandemic. Suddenly, everything changed. Online classes were very difficult for me and for many others. The sudden shift to learning through screens felt isolating, and I struggled to adjust. Yet even during lockdown, I managed to meet new online friends. Those friendships, even though virtual, gave me comfort during those uncertain times.
