I was on a Zoom call with some of my friends from the Remember Us Club when Stephen told me that he had read my story in the Irish Times. At first I thought that he was just joking with me and I didn’t believe him at all. I had to see it to believe so I went online immediately on my phone and sure enough, I saw the article with my very own eyes. Gobsmacked was how I felt. I quickly rushed over to my mum to show it to her. She was shocked as well and thrilled with delight; “Oh my God! I can’t believe it, you’re famous now Rachel!” I told my older brother but he didn’t seem too bothered. Afterwards I rang my Dad up and he was so so happy to hear the breaking news. I wanted to tell everyone about this achievement so I decided to let other people know about it as well.
The next day when I went into college in a great mood. I showed the staff the Irish Times website on my phone. They were also delighted to learn about this.
