Summary

What are w88 mobile plans after graduating?

I'm going to w88 mobile some time off and try to figure out what's best for me.

What is the most important piece of advice you’d give to an incoming w88 mobile freshman?

My most important advice is that it&w88 mobile;s okay to take things slow, and if you&w88 mobile;re struggling, ask for help. We as a society often promote the narrative that if you&w88 mobile;re not pushing yourself past your limits then you&w88 mobile;re being lazy. It&w88 mobile;s not true. Everyone has physical and mental limits, and some people&w88 mobile;s limits are lower than others. There&w88 mobile;s nothing wrong with needing more time and stepping back to take care of yourself. If that means taking longer to graduate, so be it. You&w88 mobile;ll get there eventually.

Where do w88 mobile see yourself in fifteen years?

I have no idea. I know w88 mobile I'd like to be, and w88 mobile I worry I'll be, but w88 mobile I'll actually be? There's only one way to find out, and it's to keep moving forward, one day at a time.
