I was born on April 4, 2007, in Jordan. My parents were eagerly awaiting my arrival, and the day was filled with excitement. I was tiny. The moment my parents held me for the first time, they felt a sense of love and joy. This event was significant because it marked the beginning of my journey in life. It represents the hope, dreams, and unconditional love of my family. Understanding my origins helps me appreciate who I am and influences my values as I grow.

2013- Stage of building my hobby

From an early age, swimming became an essential part of my life, thanks to the encouragement of my parents who first introduced me to the pool. With their support, I started formal lessons at the age of six, where my coach guided me through the basics. As I grew, so did my passion and skill, leading to my first competition at the age of eight. Although I didn’t win, my family was proud of me. This achievement was a major milestone for me, and for me as well.

2014-My childhood with my mom's sister

As a kid, my childhood was filled with happy moments spent with my friends. From playing endless games of tag in the neighborhood to sharing secrets, these friendships were the cornerstone of my early years. To be honest, I was just not interested in school back then so laughing and adventure were always on the agenda lol. Most importantly, celebrating birthdays, having sleepovers, or just hanging out after school, these experiences created unforgettable memories. It made an impact on me.

2014-The story of chess and me

s2218366 — 2024-09-25 18:27:32 UTC

My journey with chess began when my brother introduced me to the game at a family gathering when I was six years old. Over the years, I learned and played with my relatives, participated in school tournaments that were like a tournament but were just challenging any professional student, and also with the encouragement of my brother and friends. Their support and guidance helped me join the chess club at school which deepened my love for the game.

2016-Lessons I Learned This Year

Even though we were young, I realized that the things that happened to me taught me a lot about my life in this year and this depends on the future because I believed in what I do.

The symbol and love of friendship that I built in my heart when I was young made me feel special, because when I saw my friends at school they were different from me, honestly I didn't feel much loyalty among them, so I remember that my family said about me at that time that I was strange but it wasn't important to me... If for me it was that I felt that when I met my mother's sister because we built our trust, spirit and love with each other which made me know what the right path is and my choice proved that so I am proud of what I did and happy to know her<3 .

2017-Family Gathering

s2218366 — 2024-09-26 02:13:17 UTC

We always had a big family gathering with all the relatives. It was a rare occasion where everyone could gather under one roof. The day was filled with laughter, stories and delicious food. We played old family games, we even did dabkeh and watched videos of my relatives’ childhood memories. The most beautiful event was when we all tried to recreate an old family photo, which turned into a funny moment. Our family bonds when I was little were special and influenced me in creating cherished memories that we still talk about to this day.

2018-Move to a new town

s2218366 — 2024-09-26 02:35:17 UTC

I recently moved to a new house this year in a different area. This move was a change for me, the new environment was completely different from what I was used to. Our neighborhood was quiet and new neighbors even at that time my school also changed, with different types of houses, new faces, and unfamiliar streets.

It took some time but what happened to me was that I discovered that I live next door to my best friend and what has become my favorite. This change also brought a beautiful and new coincidence, and also, exploring new places, experiencing a different lifestyle and adapting.

2020-COVID-19 pandemic

s2218366 — 2024-09-26 03:02:59 UTC

During the COVID-19 pandemic, while it was difficult to adapt to this situation because it was not like normal and new to us, it was important that we focused on developing new skills and learning from home. This included learning to cook, drawing, or even learning a new language or playing a puzzle with my sister.

Although we were not visiting relatives, we were using video calls to stay in touch, share our experiences, and support each other during these times.

2023-The moment of farewell

s2218366 — 2024-09-26 03:19:30 UTC

This year I got a cat and it was a part of me because I got attached to it and also because it lived with me all year, but my family decided to move it at the end of the year after my sister's graduation party. The most important thing for me was that I moved it to my best friend's house so that I could feel safer and more secure. This situation was sad for me because I know that when I travel the situation will be different and I will miss it a lot.

2023-Travel decision

s2218366 — 2024-09-26 03:21:15 UTC

And last but not least, this was my last year in Jordan. It was a moment of farewell to everything that was valuable to me. On my last day of school in my town, my friends and I decided to go on a picnic to make it a memory between us, which made me feel nostalgic about staying and not traveling. It was difficult for me to leave them, but it is important to me that when a good opportunity comes my way, I will think about it and do it so that it benefits me (but I never imagined that one day it would be like traveling and emigrating).
