Q&A with Alaric
Q: What inspired you to pursue a High School Diploma?
"Even the smallest person can change the course of the future," as the old saying goes. I realized that without this foundation, my journey would
remain incomplete. The High School Diploma is not merely a piece of parchment—it is
a key, unlocking doors to realms I have yet to explore. I sought it because I believe
in the power of preparation before the great quests ahead.
Q: What does success look like to you?
Success is not gold nor glory—it is the quiet strength of knowing I have mastered
the tools needed for the road ahead. It is standing at the edge of tomorrow with courage,
ready to face challenges with wisdom and skill. To me, success means guiding others
as I have been guided, and never ceasing to learn, for the road goes ever on and on.
