Last year was the best experience I’ve ever got. I was the first winner of singing
competition.

I love singing since I was kid. I practiced so hard before the D-day. My parents were
really supportive. They helped me to practice and prepared healthy food for me. They
also gave me motivation to believe in myself.

That’s why winning singing competition meant so much to me.

Pinocchio

In the past, there was a puppeteer whose name was Geppetto. He was eager to have a
son very much but his wife passed away several years ago. One day, he got an idea to
make a puppet in order not to be lonely again. He made a puppet all day long. Finally,
in the morning he had finished his work and he named the puppet Pinocchio. Soon he
 felt lonely again since Pinocchio couldn't walk or talk by itself. One night, Geppetto
prayed to God to become a real boy. He always thought it in his mind in his dream.

The next morning, he was surprised that Pinocchio was alive. He taught Pinocchio
how to walk, how to read, how to speak and to do other things as human. He then
studied at an elementary school. One day, Pinocchio felt bored and it made him go
home late. When Pinocchio finally came home, Geppetto asked him. He said that he
was in school but he wasn't. Instantly, Pinocchio's nose grew longer and longer and it
meant that Pinocchio had lied.

The next morning, Pinocchio was kidnaped by the owner of the circus. Pinocchio
soon became a slave for the circus. He was so famous because he was a puppet which
could talk. Geppetto worried about him because Pinocchio had not been going home
for almost two days. He tried to find Pinocchio everywhere but he found nothing.
When he searched for him on the sea, a big wave smashed him. He was then in the
whale's stomach when he awoke. He couldn't find the way to go out.

On the other side, Pinocchio finally could escape out from the circus. He came home
but nobody was there. Later on, he searched Geppetto in the sea. He had the same
accident as Geppetto and he met Geppetto in the whale's stomach. Both of them got
out from its stomach by making a fire. In the end of the story, they went home
together and lived happily ever after.
