Because of these damaging thoughts, I self-starved myself at night, not finding a proper balance to take care of myself. I've had multiple intensive palpitations throughout some weeks of the semester due to having constant stress.       The clock symbolizes time management, how I've been programmed like a robot by the French system to work, work and work for my classes, thus being one of the most ambitious, hard-working students at The University of Tampa. The dark background is due to a crocodile skin background that I've implemented to the autoscopy to serve as a met
