EDITORIAL

This is my first editorial for this year 2019, and I am super excited about this. It already the end of January and I would just like to ask you this question, what have you achieved so far? You might say that it is too early to ask this question and you may even feel like telling me to chill for once Lizzy. It is so crazy to see that one month is already gone in this new year. Do you have any new year resolutions? You might even say resolutions are crap now but let me say it this way “What would you have done better in 2018 that you are willing to implement this new year? Think about it. You would want to graduate this year, increase your GPA, travel and alongside the study, exercise more, talk less, do more useful and helpful things, be helpful to your loved ones, encourage and support your friends, pursue a dream career, etc keep naming it. It is TIME to do IT. Remember, time waits for no one. Do not let Procrastination to be your friend this year.
