Monday was a truly momentous day for me, as I had to deliver a presentation to the entire school. It only lasted four minutes, yet speaking alone in a foreign language I still don’t fully understand, in front of hundreds of people, really does take courage. I had absolutely no idea when it was scheduled, so I was stunned when I arrived at school and was immediately told to go to the theatre because we were about to begin. And, to top it all off, they introduced me as “Nina Daniela from the Dominican Republic.”
