I used to regularly participate in cultural and sports team activities at school from elementary school to university. When I was in elementary school, I was a member of the school’s art team participating at the district level. Then, when I was in high school, I was recruited into the district-level performing arts team, typically the aerobics team, participating in provincial competitions. My team regularly won high awards. In a district-level aerobics competition in 2010, I won the best aerobics actor award and was interviewed on television, an honor I will never forget. At the same time, I was a member of the school’s girls soccer team participating in the district tournament, and we won third place.
After that, when I was in high school, my friends and I established our dance team in which I took on the responsibility of choreographing dance performances for the group. We performed at large resorts for remuneration, which is mainly for passion and partly for having some money to buy girls’ stuff. When I was in grade 11, I was trusted by the school and tasked with staging a cultural program to compete at the provincial level; as a result, the program won the first prize. It was a great success on the path of my passion for performing arts in my youth. During my college years, I continued participating in school activities such as women’s soccer tournaments, fashion shows, and dancing.
The period of continuously participating in and playing the role of staging the group’s cultural and sports activities has been a great experience for me, helping me to learn and practice teamwork and leadership skills effectively.

My classmates and I performed a dance performance at the university in 2018.
