Me as a student..
Studying in a State University is not that easy. Stress is always present. Pressure would sometimes test your patience But it's always your detemination that will lift you up and bring you to the windows of wisdom. Being one of the sophomore student, I couldn't get rid of the pressures on my studies. I sometimes get pessimist, thinking that I couldn't make it to the top yet I'm still here! continuing the journey..taking all the pressure,risk, and challenges..Coz I always believe that ''There is no glory without sacrifice..
My faith in Allah would always be my strenght in every step that I'm taking..My family would always be my inspiration in every challenges that i'm facing.. I want to be succesful, and I AM ON MY WAY.!!.
