 Cocoon at the Corner



Hello to all butterflies. Today I'm going to tell you the story of coming out of my cocoon as a caterpillar and becoming a PA butterfly. At the beginning of the year, I was a boy sitting quietly in the corner of the prep class. I felt lucky when I met the cheerful red-haired woman who was my teacher because she was not interested in what was going on in the classroom like other teachers. She was interested in the world outside the classroom and said that's what matters. One day she asked us if we would like to come to the PA program to share something with each other in the outside world. Actually, on my first day in the PA program, I didn't know what was going to happen in the future, but over time, we started to get our education by supporting each other with our friends. It was the hope of helping each other and other people that kept us at the club throughout this process. We were learning more and having more fun at the club with each passing day. We met many people and got on very well outside of the club, and we did all this just by listening to each other. Now we are graduating and we will get our certificates. These certificates mean more to us than a piece of paper because they are our wings to reach other colourful butterflies. May the love be with you.

It will look like a cheeseburger. On the top as bun, first part, we’ll try to dig down the term “loneliness” and “individual differences”. Then, here comes the burger about why we are different from one another. As final, we conclude with the bottom bun, which is the rest of the article. If we settle down, let’s start. Loneliness… A term which we’re using when we can’t define enough to tell other people about what we’re feeling at that moment. But in general, it refers to feeling separated from others, doesn’t it? It doesn’t matter which situation we’re in, maybe we think we’re doin...
