The major factors that contributed to my success this year:
Attending the University of Wyoming this past year was a tremendous challenge but also a great learning and growing experience. I am now much more confident in my academic abilities.
Working for my dad the last summer also open many doors to opportunities because of the skills and experience it provided.
Discovering the transistor has been the key to so many opportunities, I am much improved since discovering it.
The final key (without which I couldn't have been able to have completed any of the previous) is adderall; it has allowed me to overcome the burden of ADD.
