Answer 1

Today, I would like talk about a photo of myself that had taken by a friend. Honestly, I do not like posing for pictures and I only do on very special occasions. That photo was taken during my graduation ceremony with my extended family last year.

When I graduated from university, my whole family – that is my grandparents, my parents and a lot of my siblings – brothers and sisters - came to celebrate the day with me. Everyone was extremely cheerful and really proud of me. So we came up with the idea of taking a photo together in order to save our memorable day on film.

The House of Culture in my university was the place that we chose to take this photo. I asked one of my classmates to help us to capture that moment. He was really good at photography and so I had total confidence in him. He put everyone at their ease, so it was really a wonderful photo.

Whenever I look back at that photo, I feel very emotional and happy because it not only marked a major turning-point in my life, but it was also a valuable opportunity for my extended family to strengthen our relationship. I think sometimes it is necessary for us to capture moments and save them as notable memories in our lives.
