It’s hard to summarise the last 10 years in 150 words. Over the years, I’ve made countless,
unforgettable memories with friends that have become family. It’s such a bittersweet feeling
experiencing my last year with people whom I’ve grown up with, who’ve always supported me
through all the ups and downs that come with studying at Chouiefat. Doing 12 exams a week was
one of the most stressful things I’ve had to do, but I got through them with ease because of the
amazing teachers who’ve helped shape the person I am today. As terrified as I am, the closer I am
to reaching the end, I’ve realised how prepared I am to face the next chapter in my life. I couldn’t
have made it this far without all my amazing teachers, my annoying but wonderful friends, and
my awesome parents for always supporting me even through my weirdest ideas.

Even though I wasn’t always enthusiastic about school, it turns out that it taught me a lot. It
expanded my knowledge not just academically (surprisingly), but also practically. Aside from this,
I wouldn’t be where I am today without my parents and siblings. They have been the people that
have always been by my side, no matter how difficult school became. I’ve been in this school for
14 years, yet I will always remember every single day of it.
Senior quote: I just want to be wonderful.
