Nika’s here. #3rdyear #biomed #psychology #internationalstudent I’ve been in PAMSA for the last 3 years and have seen it in different shapes and under a lot of external and internal pressures. In the upcoming year, the last one for me, I’m excited to work hard along with you to see our fam house at its best, and I am overwhelmed at the thought.

Here’s the quote I’ve been using to cheer myself up; “If something goes wrong, don’t change the goals, change the ways to achieve them.” - I have no idea who said this, I’ve read it somewhere at some point in my life and decided to keep it in mind.
