"Let me enjoy being myself" - Sonya Aresta

On the last creative writing class, we had a special guest. We called her Sonya. Olivia Sonya Aresta is her full name. She has a totally more beautiful name than me. LOL.  Why do I say she is special? Because she had a big confidence to share all her stories in front of us.
