Nitu Corina

I'm still in high school, trying to discover myself. There isn't much to say about me, as my future has yet to fully develop and my past simply fits the ubiquitous pattern of a happy childhood followed by a stormy adolescence. I am currently preparing for university and waiting to get the chance to prove myself as a talented dedicated person in whatever my future career will be.

I'm particularly passionate about foreign languages and linguistics in general. I also like to learn about current global processes like climate change and so on.

My best advice to any dazzled passer-by on life's walks would be to keep it simple. Don't over complicate the experiences you go through and their meaning because, in the end, life and all of its eerie quirky sides is what you make of it. So, as long as you try to stay realistic- not necessarily foolishly positive- about the world surrounding you, you'll quite likely do just fine.

I'm an energetic, overly eager some might argue, teenager who first discovered TED a year ago. Ever since then, my interest in this organisation increased and I have come to admire its purpose and, finally, its achievements. It's in these talks that I usually find opinions and ideas that either reinforce my perspective or, more excitingly, challenge my sense of acceptance and comprehension.

Playing Tetris. Oh, yes.
