If you ask me what university life feels like, I probably wouldn't say exciting or colorful right away. More often than not, the first word that comes to my mind is anxious.Deadlines, presentations, internships, future plans — they don't come one at a time. They come all at once.

JIANG Sijia
University life is filled with anxiety from deadlines, presentations, and uncertainty. I once believed preparation would eliminate it, but realized anxiety never disappears — it evolves. Instead of waiting to feel ready, I learned to take small steps forward while feeling uncertain. Growing up means not becoming fearless, but keeping going anyway.
