In the shadow of two ancient volcanoes, I became a scholarship student, filled with excitement and fear. While I walked in contradiction: a bookworm who parties like a rockstar, a humanitarian who struggles with self-worth, and a young woman searching for her identity in a world of social and cultural expectations. My journey was a wild blur of "unstoppable intensity" as I navigated friendships, a tumultuous relationship with a boy, and a constant quest to understand who I truly am.
