Teachers are molders and architects of society that shape young minds and lay the foundation of future generations. The role of a teacher in the lives of students is enormous, as it's not only about molding them academically but also morally and socially. Being a teacher myself, I understand that we're supposed to inspire confidence, spark curiosity, and instill values that last a lifetime in the students, reflecting on our days as students; I'm sure many of us can recall those teachers whose dedication and impact transformed our lives; however, some teachers do the opposite of these, leading to them not being liked by the students, and in this article I'll be sharing some of my experience with a teacher I don't like during my school days and why.

The saying hard work pays off is a very popular phrase that praises the need to put in good effort so as to get the right results we desire, but then if we're being honest with ourselves, we'll agree that sometimes, regardless of how much we try or invest our effort, things won't just go as planned; many of us have invested time, energy, and resources into something, yet met with disappointment in the end. While I understand these struggles and how they sometimes want to stab out perseverance, we must understand truly hard work still pays off, and to buttress that, I'd be sharing my personal experience that showcases how my efforts paid off.

There are some video games whose storylines and worlds are so intriguing, making players envision what it'll feel like to live in such a world, and if I were given the opportunity to choose one video game, I'd love to pick to live in its world. I've got a handful of them, but among all, I'll be going with Grand Theft Auto (GTA), and I'm sure a lot of people might be wondering why I chose it when it's renowned for being a crime, chaotic, and high-speed chase game, but then I've got my reasons, among which are the unmatched freedom, adventure, and endless possibilities.

Through the years, cryptocurrency has been deemed the future of finance, and the reason for that isn't far-fetched, because it has come as a decentralized alternative that not only removes the need for banks and their cunning behaviors but also abolishes government control like we've seen with fiat. It has also served as a saving grace that changes the status of a poor individual to becoming wealthy due to a few investments, but then the big question that has raised eyebrows over time is if the world can truly run on crypto alone. And if that were to be the case, would a world without a traditional fiat and banking system be a perfect way forward to achieving financial freedom, or would it ultimately become a chaos? In this article I'll be exploring the benefits and drawbacks such might have and then conclude with my own opinion.

Curiosity is mostly a good trait that can help us discover, uncover, and acquire valuable knowledge in different aspects of life, and I'm a testament to what curiosity can do; however, when it crosses certain boundaries, it can become the direct opposite of what it's known for, becoming both dangerous and having negative consequences. Growing up, I've delved from one thing to another out of curiosity, and while some yielded positive outcomes, others didn't, and today I'll be sharing some instances of negative effects of harmful curiosity.
