“My experience at SISB has shaped me both academically and personally. The demanding curriculum taught me independence, discipline, and resilience, pushing me to work hard, manage my time well, and never give up on my goals. Through presentations, group projects, and school activities, I learnt to be social, creative, and confident in leadership roles. Studying in a strong English environment also made me fluent, helping me achieve a good IELTS score with minimal preparation and giving me a solid academic foundation that made university applications much easier.
The most memorable and rewarding part of SISB is the lifelong friendships I built. My friends are incredibly supportive and loving, and they made even the most stressful moments enjoyable. Without them, school would not have been as fun or meaningful. SISB not only prepared me for university but also helped me grow into a determined, open-minded, and well-rounded person.
SISB played an important role in helping me obtain university offers, especially through the strong support from the university counsellors. They consistently reminded us about important deadlines, guided us step-by-step through the application process, and gave detailed advice on personal statements and required documents, making everything much more organised and less stressful. SISB also invited experienced speakers and university representatives to share insights about different institutions, which helped me better understand my options and feel confident and well-prepared when applying.
I aspire to become someone who defines success on my own terms — not only financially independent, but grounded, fulfilled, and able to build a life shaped by passion and purpose. One of my deepest motivations is my family. My parents have sacrificed so much to give me opportunities, and I dream of the day I can repay them, ease their burdens, and provide a comfortable and secure future for the people I love. To me, success is not measured only by achievement, but by stability, gratitude, and the ability to live authentically while making those who supported me proud.
Art has always been the quiet constant in my life. Since childhood, it has been more than a hobby — it has been my language, my comfort, and my identity. When I create, I feel most like myself. That is why I am drawn to interior design or architecture: I am fascinated by the power of spaces to shape emotions, experiences, and even the environment. I want to design with intention — to create beauty that carries meaning and responsibility. At the same time, I do not want to confine myself to one path, because creativity is limitless, and I want to allow it to guide me wherever it may lead. No matter what form it takes, art will always be a part of who I am — it is not just something I do, it is something I am.
To my juniors:
Keep working hard and always have a clear goal in mind. Even when things feel stressful, remember that challenges help you grow. Stay focused, believe in yourself, and never give up on your dreams.”
