I’ve successfully accomplished my secret ambition (IYKYK) Now I’m on the path of my internal transformation.

I've learned so much about myself here, especially that I can't let others' judgments shape my life. I spent four years too influenced by people around me. Also, it's been tough seeing some staff members act more like they're in a teen drama, which really stops us students from growing and getting involved. Despite the tough times, especially with bullying from administrators, I've surprisingly found a way to build my resilience and confidence. Thanks for that—I guess every cloud does have a silver lining.
