Ahhh... how I miss school and the stress of meeting assignment deadlines, midterms, and finals. One thing I have learned from experience is never to procrastinate. Don't let yourself idle. If you enjoy programming, practice, and practice more. There are so many IT branches to explore to complement your field of specialty. Another variable that could also affect your studies is the climate. During the rainy season that coincides with typhoon season, sometimes there are floods. If you live in a big city, traffic is another daily challenge while commuting to the campus. So, come to think of it, there are many challenges you must maneuver and overcome while pursuing your study. Hence, never procrastinate. You never know what other variables might be coming your way that could obstruct your study. Be ready, and always stay safe.😊
