His tale is one of trials and triumphs, of laughter and tears, it highlights his life from the innocence of elementary school to the challenges of high school. This story is not only about the events of his life, it's also proof of one's strength through the face of adversity.

The journey begins in a small city, a scenery of bright green trees and small mountains surrounded his suburbs, accompanied by the laughter of children playing amongst themselves. With great enthusiasm, Jack got up early in the morning and got ready for his first day of elementary school, he ate his breakfast and hurriedly bid farewell to his mother who wished him a safe trip.

As Jack got to the gates of his school, although Jack was excited, there lies a tinge of uncertainty, he felt nervous, his heart pounding with anxiety. Jack never had much friends growing up, he rarely went out to play as he struggled to grasp the idea of socializing. As he stepped through the gates of his new school, he observed his surroundings, the school hall's echoed with chatter, children running around playing, and the low hissing sound of the wind rustling with trees. He took a deep breath, thinking about what he could do to gain new friends, and that's when a boy bumped into him, dropping his backpack on the ground, "Oh sorry about that, I didn't notice you there.", said the boy. Jack responded "No worries, my name is Jack by the way, what's yours?", "My names Oliver, nice to meet you" the boy replied. As they conversed Jack got to know Oliver and became friends with him, although it looked easy making friends with Oliver, Jack was filled with anxiety, worried that he might reject his friendship, but in the end, they ended up friends and Jack was relieved that he had a friend in his new school.

As the bell rang, Jack walked to his classroom, as he got to the door, the room was filled with chatter and laughter, as it seems everyone there was comfortable with each other, thats when he realized that Oliver was also in the same class as him, making him a bit more comfortable as he knows someone there. He walked to an empty seat near the back, and as he sat down, the teacher came into the room and everyone greeted her, "Good morning, ma'am!" the class said simultaneously. "Good morning, everyone." the teacher responded.

The tension grew in the classroom, everyone nervous about their first day, and the teacher wanted the class to introduce themselves one by one. Jack was nervous, and as his turn approached, his anxiety built up, causing his voice to shake as he was introducing himself, "H-Hi everyone, m-my name is Jack.". As he finished introducing himself, a wave of relief washed over him.

But as days turned into weeks, Jack found himself struggling to find his place, he had trouble with his studies as he barely understood his lessons, and that caused him to have more anxiety than usual. And as a group project was announced, no one wanted to pick him as he knew no one in his class besides Oliver.

Oliver was the only one who picked him to be his member, and as they went on to finish the group activity, he struggled to keep up with his groupmates, but Oliver always reassured him. They finished the group project with a high grade, causing Jack to feel relieved, as his work didn't drag down his group.

This was the turning point for Jack, he studied hard to keep up with his classmates, and along the way he got to be friends with some of them. As months turned into years, Jack finished elementary school, although without medals, he was still happy to have graduated. And at their graduation ceremony, Jack bid farewell to Oliver, thanking him for all of the things he has done for him, "Oliver, thanks for all the help, I don't know what I would've done without you." Jack said, and Oliver responded "It was all you, I didn't do much besides cheer you on, I wish you good luck in high school, I hope we meet again someday.".
