If you do not give up, there is always a way to go. When I was in 11th grade, I received word that my father had throat cancer. At that time I had just over a year to study for college exams. The study pressure and the burden of the family economy put me into a state of extreme stress. I used to want to quit school to work part-time to help my parents with money. The money needed to treat my father's illness is beyond the family's capacity. My mother had to borrow from relatives to neighbors to help my dad with his treatment. In that situation, I taught tutors and online sellers to earn more income for myself, to help my mother to reduce anxiety about me somewhat. And it seemed like a miracle came to me, with my little family, my father's health gradually recovered, my education continued. My life and my family gradually returned to the way it was before.
    Life will never once be done, nor will it always be peaceful. In the 4th year of college, I needed to do an internship at a company to be confirmed to complete a course in school. No relationship, no acquaintance, I can just search every company I can find on Facebook, on Google and submit a CV for them, in the hope of getting accepted anywhere. I remember very clearly, it was not until my 14th CV that the company contacted me again and I was accepted with a software testing internship. I thought everything would always be fine, but life would not allow it. As soon as I entered the company, I faced another difficulty. The projects the team leader gave me more and more. It made me extremely nervous and exhausted. I remember very well, I was depressed for a week because of the excessive stress. But after four months of practice, I completed it with appreciation from the team leader and received a lot of valuable knowledge and experience. I do not feel that everything is as bad as I thought it would be.
    The longer you put in the effort, the sweeter the results will be. It took me four years to become an event planner as my dream was. It was quite difficult because the major that I was studying at the time was not related to the event work at all. What do you think someone with a bachelor's degree in electronics and telecommunications can become an event planner? No problem, I have used my experiences of participating in organizing activities at college as a springboard, reinforcing my ability to fulfill my dreams and I have achieved. Another dream of mine, to set foot in a foreign country to study abroad, has also come true after five years of trying hard not to give up. I applied to Asian University for Women when I was in 12th grade and I failed the entrance exam. Many times I wanted to give up, I blamed myself for being so useless. But there is something that constantly motivates me and that is, one day, I can go to a new country, learn new things and have the opportunity to step into large corporations later. With the failures I have experienced, for the time I have spent, after all, I am proud and happy with the results I have achieved.
    From someone who considered myself a loser, always avoided and was afraid of difficulties and challenges, over time I realized that once I do not give up, I am invincible. I remember a quote from a character from a Korean drama that I liked so much, he said, "I have never endured it, I just simply passed." All difficulties and challenges that come to you are the most honest and eloquent proof that if you think about it later, you will realize that you have grown up and become much stronger. There are times when you need to fight the bad days to get to the good ones. After all, life is not easy, but it is worth living. I hope that our dreams and ambitions will be rewarded, as we have strived and persisted in pursuing it.
