Undoubtedly, hardships and struggle are the inevitable consequences of life one cannot escape. For many, financial troubles are burdensome. Others find a hard time with their families. Still others feel secluded from their society, as they fail to adjust and live up to the societal trends and fashions.
The society I was born to bears no empathy let alone fondness to my kind. Owing to such circumstances, I thought it best not to reveal my identity to anyone even ages after I learned the truth myself. This only exacerbated my anguish and self-affliction, as it continues to haunt me today.
All my life has been a constant war against my own self. Growing up in the shadow of complexes and self-doubts had me go through unspeakable pain and misery. There were countless instances when I was broke and shattered, even attempting suicide multiple times. Social maladjustment also threatened my peace gravely.
Despite all, I’m a nineteen years old geological engineer who’s bagged dozens of achievements in debating and literary disciplines which I attribute to my struggle and resilience. Needless to say, I truly have come a long way.
Although I haven’t been a straight A student, I believe I have performed commendably well in my academics. Hence, I wish to pursue my degree earnestly and to make a name for myself in my line of profession. America seems best for my professional interests, and to experience for once the freedom I always yearned for.
