A Little About Me.

Hi everyone! Don't really know if I count as a newbie anymore but here is a little about me anyways:

I'm currently an undergraduate student acquiring my bachelors (honors) degree in Applied Psychology, I aim to become a clinical psychologist. I am currently in my third semester, second year out of a total of four. I am working hard to keep up my 4/4 GPA.

My interests naturally include psychology, and I have always been one to observe and understand those around me.

Alongside that, I am passionate about #YouthPower, I believe you are never too young (or old) to bring about change. I blog via UNICEF's Voices of Youth platform, and through sites like Prose and other mediums, I know that the power of words is never exhaustive.

Writing has always been a somewhat talent and hobby for me, I have won several achievements in relation to this too. In the recent years, I have found not only a talent but a comfort in poetry, I find myself jotting down poetry for any topic, in shocking speed.

On the other hand, I am a huge bookworm. I have read over 170 books this year already! I am recently interested in detective/mystery works.

These days, apart from the heavy workload from university, I spend a major part of my time volunteering at 7 Cups, where alongside the role of a verified, trained active listener, I am a part of various leadership roles. I love supporting not only individual members, but also enjoy writing and conducting group support discussions or activities.

In a nutshell, I would say that I am a creative person, I might seem energetic to others but am in fact battling some health obstacles such as autoimmune conditions which as invisible illnesses, are often overlooked. I am very interested in change: whether it be in myself, in others, over the globe - every small stone is worth marking!

Nice to meet you all!
