What I love about writing: Writing brings my stories to life and expresses my knowledge but more than that, it provides a source of entertainment, even satisfaction.

What I love about writing: Honestly, it’s the process of writing I love the most—the tunnel vision feeling you get when you’re writing, and your thoughts are running and synthesizing into this amazing argument. It’s just generally a beautiful form of self-expression. I feel this in all forms of writing, whether that be creative or academic reports. So to conclude, writing liberates me from the complexity of a lot of things, both personal and academic, and makes everything simple.

What I love about writing: Writing is complex and rewarding, like human life. Writing represents a meaningful avenue of expression and communication, especially for me, as I use writing to say the things I can’t always bring my voice to say out loud. Writing is also complex because it is subjective, as an audience’s perception of an author’s work can differ from the author’s intended message. Ultimately, writing allows us to create worlds we wish existed and writing allows us to lay our thoughts to rest, via pencil, pen, or keyboard.
Something Interesting about me: I enjoy making handcrafted gifts for those dearests to me, such as paintings, decorative art for birthday celebrations, hand-made cards, flowers from tissue paper, and etc.
