The Unpublished Story Of Mine (A Reflective Essay)

My story as a student is not yet published. I am now in the last chapter of my Senior High School journey and only one season is left, college life.

Before I enter a huge brown gate of the place where I gained knowledge, my mind was filled with negative thoughts, I can't talk and my mind shivers. But in the past two years, I was able to buried all those insecurities, and that was my greatest achievement. I thought I am about to reach the end of the road but little did I know that there is another road-wider, more huge, and rougher than other and this is the starting point of another season called college life.

Fifteen years from now, I am seeing myself with another season of my life-talking loudly and happily in front of my students and managing a business as well. Though I am not sure if that's really where I'm going because sometimes shame visits me, but I will not let shame block my way to my dreams, I will do my best and make sure that one day I will smile very big and say to myself "job well done."
