Life contains an abundance of influences, some positive while some not. It is often unpredictable and surprising. In life, people experience breathtaking moments if they are fast enough to capture them. At the same time, they often try to hide themselves behind curtains of perfection.

True photo or not, a perfect photo moment can be lost in an instant. One second it is there, the next second it disappeared. While trying to finding the best angle, zooming in, beautifying the quality, the photo can be lost in a blink. The only element that genuinely matters is the end product – if you are nimble enough to catch it. By simply making one mistake, you can lose something you have carefully aimed towards.
Regardless that I had studied nonstop for months, I was unable to achieve something I could have easily won: my 3rd grade spelling bee, all because of an extent of nervous energy.
I nervously tapped my foot, thinking of nothing other than the hour I had prepared for ages. My eyes were glued on the clock. Suddenly, the loudspeaker crackled
