A message I would like to broadcast to the world:
"Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations’
I love this quote because it will never be an easy path to success, you have to work hard for what you want. I feel that this is applicable to all parts of life- there is beauty out there, but most of the time it’s not given to you. Be kind, be humble, work hard and persevere. Good things come to those who work hard.
An unusual thing I love is: House music! Wherever I am whether it’s studying or playing tennis or just sat around I will be listening to it.
