Advice to Students: Life comes at you unexpectedly and is unpredictable. What’s important is how you respond to it, so be open to change, be true, and be you. Don’t compare yourself to others or what others have because you do not know how/what they had to do to get to where they are. Your journey is unique to you, so work on bettering yourself every day.
