"*Never too late to lock in*
From a 3.95 to a 5.0 GPA.
Switching courses and having to restart from 100 level again took a toll on me and drained my strength, until I got a call from my parents encouraging me and promising heaven and earth if I could make them proud.
They gave me that heaven and earth, and I’m so happy I made them proud 🥹
