Male Female

I am a student currently, and I study software development after my 12th grade. I actually started preparing for computer science on my own, and I didn't take any courses because I always wanted to move abroad for my higher studies. That's what I have always dreamed of, and I will be completing that dream next year very soon. So currently, I am just focusing on preparing myself for my higher studies, which is my graduation. Immediately while in graduation, I hope to start taking internships in my second year and begin working as a software engineer, which I have always wanted to do. So yes, that's what I do these days.
