THE NOISE
Messages from Friends:
Stop studying! You're already done with school.
How I responded:
In today's world, technology and everything else is rapidly changing and improving. If one is not up-to-date with their surroundings, they will be stuck in the past and not in the future - the future is what I look forward to every day. I am where I am today because of what I know. Challenge yourself, ask questions, learn, and grow - because knowledge is power!
