My effort has helped me maintain a good academic record.
I AM JUST SICK, I DIDN’T KILL ANYBODY
There’s no backup if you miss classes.
NO STRUCTURES IN PLACE FOR STUDENTS LIKE ME
I prefer to use hospitals off campus rather than the school clinic.
USED MY FEES TO PAY FOR TREATMENT
Even academics and reading, which used to be my solace, became a battlefield.
I FEEL OVERLOOKED IN CLASS
The university could do more to support visually impaired students like myself.
PEOPLE SAY I’M USING MY HEALTH AS AN EXCUSE
People ask me questions like “What happened to you again? What’s wrong with you again?”
THIS IS THE BEST CHRISTMAS I’VE HAD
I’m not a dancer, but I still gave them steppings.
PLAITING MY HAIR AS A JOURNALIST
People who actually respected me started drawing away from me at some point.
WE SLEPT IN THE LIVING ROOM FOR WEEKS
Life has not been easy. Even to feed and spend is difficult because we need to repay the loan we borrowed online.
COULDN’T SLEEP, I HAD TO TAKE PILLS
We had to throw a lot of belongings affected by the flood away. I felt completely devastated.
