在葳格，我已經超越了當初來的自己。我掌握了許多事物，結識了新朋友，並踏上了學習之路。回顧過去，一開始的時候我過得相當輕鬆，但隨著成長，事情變得越來越複雜。然而我適應了這些變化，並開始承擔更多的責任。
葳格賦予了我許多技能，例如解決問題、批判性思維，和超越自己的意志力。如果沒有這些技能，我在未來的道路上將會遇到許多困難。這些年在葳格對我來說非常重要，因為我成長了很多，真正走出了自己的殼。如果我能寫一篇年度報告給過去的自己，過去的我可能會被嚇壞，因為我們要面對以前從未遇過的挑戰。但，我們可以快速地適應，因為葳格教會我們克服了拖延、舞台恐懼和自律等等。葳格賦予了我們勇氣去勇敢面對困難的挑戰和抉擇。
這些年裡，我在葳格留下了美好的回憶，比如和朋友一起在台灣騎自行車，參加六年的演講比賽，和同學一起橫渡日月潭，和最好的朋友一起衝浪等等。我更加了解我的同伴們，友誼變得更加穩固，讓我們可以真正依靠彼此。
在葳格，我的英文進步迅速。我從一個對英文不熟悉的小孩，變成了一個享受英文學習的青少年。從三年級開始，我愛上了閱讀英語小說。我喜歡英語小說，而葳格的圖書館則提供了大量的英語書籍，加上學校的英文課程，都幫助我提高了英文技能。
在完全沉浸於學習英文之後，我發現學習英文可以帶來更多機會。例如，我成為了葳格小學畢業典禮的優等生和中學畢業典禮的主持人，我也參加了英語寫作比賽、演講比賽和VQC。多虧了葳格的培訓，我能夠輕鬆通過像TOIEC、GEPT和TOFEL等英檢測驗。
最後，感謝所有幫助我的同學和師長，無論我遇到什麼困難，他們都一直支持著我。我想用馬克·吐溫的一句話作為結尾：「二十年後，你會因為你沒有做的事情而感到失望，而不是你做過的事情。離開安全的港口，鼓起勇氣，追隨風帆，探索、夢想、發現。
The Journey of Growth at Wagor International School: Reflections and Insights
During my years at Wagor, I have stretched beyond whom I was when I first arrived. I got a better grasp of things, new friendships have been formed, and I started on my journey through school. Looking back on it, I had it really easy at the beginning, but things became more and more complicated as I grew. Yet somehow, at such a young age, I adapted to these changes and started taking on more responsibilities.
Wagor has bestowed numerous skills on me. For example, problem solving, critical thinking, and the will to always go above and beyond. Without these skills I would have struggled a lot going forth. These years in Wagor have been very important for me, because I grew a lot as a person and really came out of my shell during this time. If I were to tell my past self that I’d be writing an annual, I would have had a heart attack. We’re going to face challenges that we have never met before, but we can adapt to this in a blink of an eye because we’ve conquered procrastination, stage fright, self-discipline, and countless other beasts in our time here at Wagor. Wagor has given us the courage to face difficult challenges and decisions head on.
Throughout the years at Wagor, I’ve gotten to know my brethren better, so friendships have become stable, and we can actually rely on each other. We’ve solved problems and it was smooth sailing, but nothing can stay forever. Eventually we will move on. It will be like being bumped back to the beginning. New teachers, new people, new school. I have some great memories from my years at Wagor, like cycling around Taiwan with my friends, participating in speech contests for 6 years, swimming across Sun-Moon Lake with my classmate, going surfing with my best friend etc.
During my years at Wagor, my English has improved rapidly. I have changed from a little child who was unfamiliar with English into a teenager who now enjoys the fun in learning it. Starting third grade, I became addicted to reading English novels. I loved English novels and Wagor provided an abundant amount of English books in its library. My English has advanced not only because of all the English classes that are given to me, but also reading English novels has played a main role in helping me improve my English skills.
After being fully immersed in learning English, I found out that learning English can provide you with more opportunities than other languages can. For example, I was the valedictorian at Wagor’s elementary graduation ceremony and host of Wagor’s junior high graduation ceremony. I also had more chances to take part in competitions. For instance, I have participated in English writing contests, speech contests, and VQC. Thanks to Wagor’s training I can now easily pass English verifications like TOEIC, GEPT, TOFEL etc.
Finally, thank you to all my friends and teachers who have helped me and stayed by my side, no matter what I was going through. I’d like to leave you with a quote from Mark Twain.” Twenty years from now, you’ll be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the ones you did do. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade wind in your sails. Explore, dream, discover.”
