 “You barely get any sleep and sometimes you don’t even sleep to finish up your assignments,” says Nurin Jazlina, 19, a third-year student pursuing a Diploma in Apparel Design & Merchandising in Temasek Polytechnic. She works part time at Toys-R-Us while finishing her final year.

 

However, what pushed Camira to continue persevering through the tough times were her driving motivation and passion. She believed that without the passion in her, it would have been extremely tough.

When asked what she would advise her younger self studying in LASALLE, Camira responded, “You cannot fail because it’s for your own self. You always have to remind yourself that whatever you do is not for your parents or siblings. It’s for your future. If you fail now, you are failing yourself so you can’t give up.”
