Before anything else, I want to thank both Jessica Kersey and Natalie Barnes for giving me such inspirational words that are all rooted from their experiences. In life, if you don't know how to go with the flow, there's a terrible chance that you might get lost and that's not a good thing. Be the smartest you and always be after your passion. If you are fueled enough to make everything possible, you will achieve everything you want to have at the right time. Actually, that's a very basic suggestion we should apply on ourselves.
