In a world where less attention is paid to those with different opinions or outlooks on life; in a world where you’re either for or against them, how do you thrive? Everyone seems to have an idea especially when it concerns others. Haven’t you been there–where your life and decisions are almost bullied out of …
Kindly allow me to expatiate on the quote that says, “you have to lose yourself to find yourself.” As humans, beneath skinny bones, we are a compilation of the same elements in different ways; we are all entangled by our unique tales.

It was not some form of overconfidence in myself. Well, if you think so, it’s fine. I had prepared prior to the day. I had stayed up long night immersing myself into the materials that I was going to be tested on. I got past questions several years prior. If I could recall vividly, about …
