I am a certified introvert, I've been an introvert practically all my life. I don't step out of my comfort zone very often but back when I was in form 4 I signed up to be a facilitator for an English camp held at my school. Sadly the only picture I have is the one of me eating bread. I didn't take any other picture besides that because my back camera was cracked and also the quality would just be bad overall. I did thoroughly enjoyed being a facilitator and I'm thankful I had the chance to take part in setting up the activities.

| Official Certificate Of Introversion |
I do have this though, it is an official certificate I got from Chief of the Introvert Society. Please do not call them, they might email you....maybe. Ps this isn't real I don't have a lot of achievements anyways so I'll take whatever i can get real or not.
Another time I remember stepping out of my comfort zone was representing my school for Majlis Sukan Sekolah Daerah (MSSD) Kelantan 2024 and 2025 as a javelin throw athlete. Allhamdulillah, I ended up winning first place two years in a row. I remembered my coach, Sir Zakir giving me RM50 as a reward for winning first place at last year's (MSSD).
I remembered being almost speechless when my form 5 senior came up to me asking if I would like to represent the school for (MSSD) 2024. I hesitantly replied with a yes which i would end up regrating later that night when I was in bed. I rolled around dreading having to constantly interact with people I didn't know. Knowing there was absolutely no turning back I just prayed everything would be alright.
I wasn't as nervous joining (MSSD) 2025 because I already knew everyone from the year before. I was still on edge whenever any new comers approached me but I sucked it up and forced myself to communicate with them anyways. I did make new friends which was definitely a bonus and made me feel much better about the overall situation.
Just recently, I took part in a promotional video for the photography club, I played as one of the side characters. My main task wasn't to difficult, all I had to do was ask the main characters a few questions about exactly what they were doing. The main purpose of the promotional video was to announce that the photography club was hosting a short film competition in honour of Malaysia's independence month.

| Guess which one is me? 😶 |
A little fun fact, just 3 weeks after shooting the promotional video my class mentor uploaded a picture of the flyer in the class group chat saying that it was compulsory for all semester 1 students to take part. I wasn't to bothered about it because I was sure I wouldn't be picked as one of the actors for the video. Boy was I wrong, not even a few days later my friend sent me text asking if I could act in the short film. I of course wanted to say no but being the people pleaser that I am, I said "yes" 😖. Taking part as an actor when shooting the promotional video was already a big step out of my comfort zone but agreeing to act again was even worse, I honestly had no one else to blame but myself.

| See if you can guess my fav colour |
I woke up at the literal break of dawn to make sure my makeup was packed onto my face, I needed it to look perfect, I couldn't risk it budging knowing the camera would be right in my face. The filming process was a little more difficult because I kept forgetting my lines but I pushed through either way and finally at around 2 o'clock we finished shooting. At this point we had been filming for 6 hours and I was exhausted to say the least. I don't think I'll be taking part in any future shoots ever again.
