So the creative project that I like to talk about should be the drone project in our university. We are made to eradicate mosquitoes because mosquitoes number are really increasing in a rainy season in our country and it is the main reason of a famine called Dengu. So actually one of my friends had died in the Dengu last year so it really motivated me to make a project that will eventually help a lot of people to reduce the number of mosquitoes even when they are in the nest or in a larvae form which is in the baby form. But there are lots of problems that we have faced. Firstly, there was not enough resources and secondly, the body parts weren’t that much available at the time and also when we were testing the drones and the arm in a local area, one of the arm broke mid-flight and we couldn’t really fix it. So, eventually the project was over but it really gave me some valuable experience like the teamwork and the reality of our expectation because we tend to expect a lot of different things when we are doing a project or working hard to achieve something but reality sometimes gives you some different results and it’s very normal and it really gave me a valuable lesson that failure actually pushes you ahead if you have a positive mind or positive prospect about or on that failure.

So the creative project that I like to talk about is the drone project at our university. We aimed to eradicate mosquitoes because their numbers really increase during the rainy season in our country, and they are the main reason for a disease called dengue. One of my friends died from dengue last year, so it really motivated me to create a project that would help a lot of people reduce the number of mosquitoes, even when they are in the nest or in the larval form, which is the baby form. However, we faced many challenges. Firstly, there were not enough resources, and secondly, the body parts were not readily available at the time. Also, when we were testing the drones and the arm in a local area, one of the arms broke mid-flight, and we couldn't fix it. Eventually, the project came to an end, but it provided me with valuable experiences, such as teamwork and the reality of our expectations. We tend to expect a lot of different outcomes when we are working hard on a project, but reality sometimes gives us different results, and that's very normal. It taught me a valuable lesson: that failure can actually push you ahead if you maintain a positive mindset about that failure.
