Hola MaHigh-School - August 2017

Friends and University
Believe it or not, University is a great place to network. As I speak
now, I know people who are as dedicated and passionate as I,
and they have seemed to inspire me in many more ways than I
had ever imagined.
One of my new ‘university’ friends is in Russia studying Medicine,
and has promised me to take me out to lunch when qualifying as
a doctor.
Although she was at the same university as I, she grabbed an
opportunity to study abroad. In the few months we shared, we
were able to build a long-lasting friendship with a LOT of memories.
We share pictures via email and I know a lot more about the
world because of her.
In addition, I met people who understand my language and the
need to make a difference, and not only that, they keep me on
my toes by proving that this ‘university’ journey can be enjoyable.
My university friends are the ones I seem to grow with and make
more mistakes with and creating the best memories with.
It is not about them studying the same thing I am studying but
me beneficially being friends with them because of their personality,
dreams and aspirations that influence me and them positively.
Maybe because we are all driven and determined to succeed?
