Why the Tiger?

"The serpent, the king, the tiger, the stinging wasp, the small child, the dog owned by other people, and the fool: these seven ought not to be awakened from sleep."
~Chanakya~

For centuries, the tiger has been a symbol of power, royalty, intelligence, strength and beauty. It has been mythologized in many cultures and was revered throughout the ages.

I wish my history was that extravagant! Instead, I was dubbed as 'Tiger' by my parents whom both happen to be Auburn alumni. When I started becoming a particularly brazen child, I earned my nickname that I still use to this day.

While I have earned and lived up to my given title a million times over, I want to live up to all the symbol implies, starting with completing my Associate in Arts. That's where this blog comes in- a class assignment to make a pseudo portfolio.

Here is to a fresh semester!
