Finally got to process and sit down to write the summary of the third year at uni -the last leg of this great, life-changing journey that university has became. After graduating I jumped into full-time employment, which with addition to being a parent, leaves no room for much more extra activities. Although I was super happy to finally see the finish line, some part of me was a bit sad that this part of my life is ending.

After a year and a half, my time at hinge comes to an end. I am thankful for the time I have spent there, people I have met, projects I could work on and all the knowledge I have gained.

Sad, but that’s how it is sometimes. After all, we are all just humans, right?
Anyway, I thought I will tell u a little story of how I got into Uni after I thought I never would be able to. I wanted to write this post for a long time to shine some light on my past and maybe to inspire someone in a similar situation to mine.
