The first few weeks of university for me has been a bittersweet experience. I am immensely happy to venture into this new journey, and to be able to learn about the subject matters that interest me most, but I have faced challenges. For me adjusting to the Canadian curriculum and small city life has been a bit hard, but I got through it. The first few weeks of college has taught me that, success does not come easy, you have to work hard for you, harder than you’ve ever fought, and for the remainder of these four years, I am prepared to do just that!
