Since SPH ASA was one of the main reasons why I decided to move to SPH in 9th grade, it has given me the opportunity to explore my passions beyond what I learn in school. From my first year in 10th grade to my last in 12th grade, I have discovered a variety of problems, research questions, investigations, data, and skills that continuously enrich my knowledge in the sciences. In ASA, I came to see science and research not as a burden or requirement to merely enhance my portfolio, but rather a creative and intellectual outlet to change the world. Although my projects are still minuscule compared to the various achievements of the experts in my fields of interest, engaging with my curiosity in ASA showed how contribution in the scientific world is incredibly substantial and encouraging. Looking back, I can confidently and proudly say I do not regret my choice of joining ASA, because not only did I learn more about my interests, but I also made unforgettable memories with my peers, mentors, and supervisors, that I will cherish until the years to come.
