A letter from a Single Lady to her unborn child:

Dear Child, today felt different


When I was younger and not sure which way was the right way to go, I wished I had someone who I could share my thoughts, more like questions, with. Someone I could trust and be sure would always give me a sincere direction through life. But I found no one befitting this role.

EPISODE 5

We needed a minimum GPA of 3.5 at the end of our second year, to move from diploma to full admission.

Episode 3
