         <description><![CDATA[<p>By Ossa </p><p>Heart value: Excellence </p><p>Backstory: Raised by a bitter single father who saw affection as weakness and punished mistakes with silence or cruelty, she learned at a tender age that perfection was her only escape against punishment, but though it never brought love. Throwing herself into academics, sports, and debate, she earned the title of prodigy, clinging to the&nbsp; armor to hide the fragile, approval-starved boy within. She yearned for praise just like an addict, an alcoholic. Failure was not just a setback, it was a crumbling piece of fragile illusion she had built around himself. Success brought not pride but fear, fear that one misstep would reveal how helpless and undeserving she truly felt. Blunders caused her to spiral further into self loathing, reminding her of how he was a sorry excuse of a human being. She built a persona of cold arrogance, pushing others away with sarcasm and superiority, all to mask the fraud, the failure, a broken child begging for love that never came.</p><p><br/></p><p>(I gave the most jaw dropping lore possible)</p><p>(Totally not from my google doc drafts from the characters I have written before)</p><p><br></p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p><br/></p><p>Heart Value : Excellence</p><p>Reona is a serious PL-lite who is a perfectionist. Whether its grades or CCA, she always came in first. Her parents were always pushing her to strive and give her best, and so she did. Over time, the constant pressure to succeed soon overwhelmed her. Pressure was like a poisoned seedling sprouting from her heart, slowly causing her sanity, mindset and values to wither away. Her examinations was just around the corner. Reona knew, in her parents' eyes, grades were a fundamental pillar of gaining their trust and support in the future. However, there was just one, tiny obstacle that stood in her way: Naomi. Naomi was not only impeccable in her studies, but she was also one of the most popular and friendliest girls in school, a stark contrast against Reona. Despite constantly burning the midnight oil to study for her examinations, Naomi was always above her, just one step away. Fueled by ignorant willpower and determination, Reona was up even at 3 AM in the morning studying and studying and studying. </p><p>One day, Reona was staggering down the stairs at school, heading for the canteen. She hadn't eaten in days. Suddenly, a wave of nausea surged through her like a slow tide. Her periphery was tinging with a hazy crimson, and the fluorescent lighting around her seemed to meld together in a smeared, blinding glow. Out of a sudden, the stairs seemed impossibly apart and her balance teetered on the edge of something unseen. </p><p>The world tilted.</p><p>Her breath caught as gravity took hold. </p><p>But she never hit the ground. A firm grip seized her arm mid-collapse, yanking her back. Reona's eyes widened in shock. </p><p>It was... Naomi? </p><p>The familiar yet distant waterfall of Naomi's ivory white hair that cascaded down her shoulders, the friendly, all-knowing smile that hovered on her lips. </p><p>Tears sat on the brink of Reona's eyelids. </p><p>" I've been so mean to you all these years. Yet... you saved me? ", Reona questioned her quizzically while hiccupping and sniffling. </p><p>" It's what any friend would do. Sigh... I know you try your best to meet your parents' expectations, and I admire you for it. However, that doesn't mean you can disregard your own health like that! " Naomi replied, her beam morphing into a serious frown as she neared the end of her sentence. </p><p>Upon hearing her words, Reona was shell-shocked. She had never met anyone who was so nice, so carefree...</p><p>At that point in time, a friendship was forged. Under Naomi's guidance, Reona grew to embrace the fact that she could not cope under all that stress, and she eventually mustered up the courage to confront her parents about the asinine expectations that they force upon her. </p><p><br/></p><p>THE END</p><p>( i rushed through the last part, if u couldn't tell ) </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Avery is a 14 year old student from PLMGSS. However her life was not as good as most of the students in her school. As a young child in kindergarten she did not have the luxury of a good home to go home to and parents to help her in her troubles. Instead her home was like a war zone, her mother A drug addict that had been caught twice and her father a gambler who was the main reason why they lived in slums. Everyday despite dreading to go home she had to, to make sure that when things really get bad her little brother who at that time was only two years old from taking hits. She often showed up in school with unexplainable bruises. When people ask her if she was okay, she would put up a fake smile and say that she was okay, despite her cheerful and happy character she was actually broken inside. Things all changed when she was in secondary school where one day her fake smiles and cheerful exterior broke in front of her friend, Isabel, after she had told Avery that she was considered family to her. Avery let years of pain and anguish fall out in forms of tears, and told her best friend what happens at home everyday, Isabel encouraged her to tell the police and she did. That was when everything changed in her house. Things all changed her parents were jailed for abuse and she and her brother gained a new family and they no longer had to fear going back home or getting hit. She was finally able to be happy however she was still afraid that all of this will one day disappear and her foster parents decided to take her to a therapist who helped her.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>By: Ossa</p><p>Heart value: Excellence (Except it is the result of chasing after it too much.)</p><p><br/></p><p>Part 2.</p><p><br/></p><p>As she growed, she started letting go. Letting go of the pressure to receive academic validation. Realising nothing, nothing at all she tried to do gave him what she craved, she gave up trying to chase for approval, be it at sports or academics, everything became a burden. She became a hollow shell of a human, as if all her emotions had been drained and dissolved  during childhood: the fear, the anger, the frustration; even the fleeting satisfaction that came with success. It all seemed hopelessly wasted, never to be retrieved. She replaced her former persona of cold arrogance with the painted smile of a clown, a carefree jokester, masking the harsh, bitter reality that deep down, her wounds were fresh. Her grades and performance sank like the Titanic, and with that descent came a growing hatred for every insult and scolding she received from his teachers and parent. It was all new to her. What had happened to the days when she was praised? How she longed for those moments, before she spiralled  into misery and numbness. Each insult now felt like a dagger to her heart. But her mask, the crooked smiles and jokes, acted like bandages, holding back the free-flowing blood, concealing the pain she realised she could no longer express.</p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Heart Value: Excellence</p><p>Estelle of class 2.8 is the esteemed Student Ambassador of PLMGSS. Even though, like everyone else, she is not perfect by any means, Estelle always strives to do her best in everything she does, while striking a healthy balance between work and play at the same time. She loves DIY and enjoys making scented candles in her free time, selling them online as a personal passion project. She also has a keen interest in astrology, spending ages researching moon phases, as well as the different types of stars. She believes that, like a star, she can also live up to her thoughtful name and be a guiding light to others, similar to how sailors used to follow the North Star back home. As an honorary PL-Lite, she is proud to give her 110% at all times, whether it be in studies, house challenges, CCA, friendships and more. Even though she is not a straight-A student by any means, nor is she a flawless person, to Estelle, excellence is not about perfectionism, but simply putting in effort no matter the circumstances. </p><p>Estelle loves activities such as Sports Day as she gets to cheer on her schoolmates regardless of their House. She thinks that the built-up suspense and anticipation further adds to the electrifying experience of such events, and she hopes the school implements more of such events in the future. Estelle is (30/4/25 WAT OH YAY IT SAVED hahah-) (anyways-) a passionate learner who does her best to employ the excellence mindset in whatever she does, ever since she joined PL Primary at the age of 7. </p><p>Her favourite colours are yellow, purple, pink and blue. To Estelle, asking for help or being a kind person isn't a sign of weakness nor naivety, in fact, it's a sign of strength. She's aware of the troubles and vices in the world but still chooses to do her best and have a positive outlook on the world, refusing to get bogged down by the excessive negativity that can spring up around her at times.</p>]]></description>
