don't quit.

C'MON, you were in a much worse situation last summer. At least this time, you have A with you. I know you can make it. Don't give up. Just breathe.

perplexed.

I am deeply bothered. People admire me for my unconventional way of thinking, for my heart that yearns to serve, for my dream of alleviating the problems and society. And yet, the ones who frown upon me for doing so, are the people who matters to me the most.

deeply saddened.

EVERYONE should at least have the capacity to pay for their basic needs. Education is a right not a privilege.

I shall remain strong.

WITH so many things happening right now,

INVICTUS
William Ernest Henley

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
