What was the happiest moment in your life?
June 18, 2018- It was the first day that I decided to journal, I decided to write for myself. This was the first summer that I spent in Philadelphia at UPenn. I was working and volunteering at the hospital. I honestly never felt as carefree, independent and happy since that summer. So I feel that that specific day marked how happy I felt and a way of expressing it was by going by myself to a park and write.
What do you regret the most in life?
One of the things I regret the most is not standing up for what I believe and want in life in front of someone close to me.
