Future Plans:

During my entire teenagehood I'm dedicating my time to inner growth and self-development. I'm a career person with high ambitions, sometimes even too high, but that is what defines me. In the future I'm headed to gain massive recognition through my deeds and become a truly advantageous person in the eyes of society.

Self-description in one sentence:

I'm Lisa, and once you get to know me deeper, that says it all, as everybody sees me different

Impact of Svitlo: 

I wouldn't want to appear too pretentious, whereas Svitlo School means the world to me. This is an entire universe where I can put aside all the routine, masks and genuinely be myself,surrounded by intelligent, inspiring and broadly developed people who give me hope that this insane world is not absolutely devastated. Svitlo does not tell students to be equally boring and gray-shaded, on the contrary, it gives them a bridgehead for action. The one who seeks and sees won't argue that Svitlo School is an unquenchable source of opportunities, and such an incredible tandem has not only upgraded my social role, but also improved me as a person. Indeed, through the dark times, Svitlo is a ray of light which reminds you the  reason for the efforts applied and motivates you to put up with hardships. Yes, it means the world to me, and those are not words, it is my feeling, it is who I am

Additional Information:

I write rhymed poetry and this year participated in a global contest:)
