I study civil engineering. Now I’m taking summer classes and going on trips with my friends and family. I like to read about history and to watch YouTube videos about scientific discoveries. I like to know everything about the world, to hear more than to speak, and to sit with the older people. I don’t like to impose on anyone–we all have different tastes–but the book “So Forgive Me” influenced me the most. In the inside cover my father wrote: “To my son and beloved friend, you must know in life that nothing equals forgiveness.”
