I am very blessed to be doing work I love with people I care about.

That’s like leaving your front door wide open and then being surprised when someone walks in and robs the place. However it’s not just these incredibly bad passwords that pose a security risk.

Assignment, internship, test and practical report are the constant reminder of “Don’t waste time on breathing and work.”.
