Despite everything against Andrea in the office, she will consider the experience as a challenge. I think it is an inspiration to me. There are times that I thought of giving up, but when I think about Andrea I would keep holding on want I am doing. Because her tasks, for example: to obtain the next unpublished Harry Potter manuscript, which was much more demanding than mine. At the end, with playing a perfect assistant of Miranda, Andrea kind of sold her soul to a devil. The naïve girl had gone. I think it happens a lot when facing people. Some always stay true to themselves, but there are many that would suppress their own feelings and thoughts in order to appeal to others. I believe there are some circumstances that being ourselves aren’t that easy, but some somehow we must find a way to balance it, so that we won’t lost ourselves forever.
