I remember entering the gates of MUJ with tears in my eyes. And they were tears of sadness.

I had worked really hard to crack the nation’s top engineering entrance exam, but I was not attending the university that I wanted to attend. Little did I know that this would be a blessing in disguise.

Not only did I have the best time of my life, looking back I am glad I did not peak just after high school. It made the years that followed great.
