My dad gently stroked my head and said, "Silly child, you love to draw, so go ahead and pursue it boldly."
I was surprised and replied, "Dad, you..."
He smiled and said, "I've seen your hard work and patience over the past three years. I believe you are mature enough to chase your dreams."
I looked at my dad, feeling warm inside.
"And besides, your dream is not unattainable."
I looked at him, puzzled, and asked, "What do you mean?"
He laughed and said, "Your dream is to be a painter, right?"
I nodded and replied, "Yes."
"Your dream can be realized."
I looked at my dad, even more confused.
"I will support you."
He smiled and added, "I told you before, as long as you're willing to work hard, your dreams can come true."
My dad continued, "I hope you can stick to your dreams, don't give up, and don't let yourself regret it."
I looked at him and said firmly, "I won't give up."
My dad smiled and nodded, saying, "That's good."
My sister-in-law chimed in from the side with a smile, "Congratulations, Xiao Ming! You're finally realizing your dream."
I looked at her and smiled back, saying, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
My brother laughed from the side and said, "I told you, little brother would definitely be fine."
I looked at him and smiled, saying, "You really know me well, brother."
My dad looked at me and said, "From now on, you need to work even harder; don't let us down."
I nodded and replied, "I will."
My dad then said, "Alright, you should go rest now."
I nodded and said, "Okay."
I stood up and walked out of the study.
The next day, I arrived at school.
The school was bustling with noise and excitement.
I entered the classroom and found my seat.
Just as I sat down, my deskmate leaned over.
Looking at me, my deskmate said, "Jiang Ming, which school did you apply to?"
I replied casually, "Central Academy of Fine Arts."
My deskmate exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, you're really impressive!"
I responded modestly, "It's nothing special."
My deskmate looked at me with envy and said, "I really admire you for being able to attend an art academy."
I replied, "You can do it too."
My deskmate shook their head and said, "I can't."
I frowned and asked, "Why not?"
My deskmate explained, "My grades aren't very good."
I comforted them, saying, "Don't worry, you'll improve."
My deskmate looked at me and asked, "Really?"
I nodded and said, "Yes."
My deskmate smiled happily and said, "Thank you, Jiang Ming."
I smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
The class bell rang, and the homeroom teacher walked in.
The teacher looked at us and said, "Students, today is your last day together in high school." After a pause, the teacher continued, "Today, I would like to invite a student to share her study experience."
The teacher looked at me and said, "Jiang Ming, please come up and share your study experience."
I stood up and walked to the podium.
I scanned the room and slowly spoke, "Actually, I don't have much learning experience either."
"First, you need to develop good habits."
"Complete your homework on time every day and actively think about problems."
"Second, cultivate your interests."
"You can only excel if you enjoy what you're doing."
"Finally, you must persevere."
"No matter what difficulties you encounter, don't give up easily."
"Only by sticking with it can you achieve success."
After finishing, I bowed to the audience and said, "Thank you, everyone."
The applause thundered from below.
I returned to my seat, and my deskmate looked at me in admiration and said, "Jiang Ming, you're amazing."
I smiled faintly and said nothing.
When the class bell rang, I packed my things and left the classroom.
Back home, my dad, mom, brother, and sister-in-law were all in the living room.
My mom looked at me and said, "Xiao Ming, your dad and I support you. Study hard and become a great painter."
