In my third year of university, I was no longer just a student who worried about exams and deadlines. Tuition fees were approaching, and the financial pressure pushed me to think seriously about my future. Instead of asking my parents for more support, I decided to create a small online shop on an e-commerce platform.
At first, everything felt overwhelming. I had to attend lectures during the day and learn how to manage product listings, customer messages, and advertising at night. Some days, I only slept four hours, exhausted but determined. My first few orders were small, and mistakes were unavoidable. A delayed shipment and a negative review once made me want to quit. However, I reminded myself why I started: to pay my tuition and gain independence.
Slowly, my efforts began to show results. Customers returned, sales increased, and my confidence grew. The shop did not make me rich, but it helped me cover part of my tuition fees and daily expenses. More importantly, I learned valuable lessons about responsibility, persistence, and time management.
By the end of the semester, I realized that the experience was worth more than money. I was no longer just a third-year student; I was a young entrepreneur building my own path, one order at a time.

4 out of 5 starsCute skort set. nice fabric but doubled on the skort-instead of one layer for the skirt there are two plus the shorts so it may run hot. The top is very large in comparison to the skort for a small. I will need to take it up somehow because it is way oversized and not wearable, as is.

5 out of 5 starsThe quality of the set is good and it’s comfy. I bought a medium and the skirt is true to size and stretchy but the shirt fits more like a large or XL. I would recommend sizing down but overall the product is great. I needed customer service and the owner was very accommodating.

5 out of 5 starsThe quality is good. The skirt fits but the shirt is a little tight. I bought a 3T but the shirt looks like it’s more for 18 months or 2T if your little one is smaller.

4 out of 5 starsThis Toy Story outfit is VERY good quality - comparable to Made by Molly designs. The top is definitely a bit snug but that’s also the style. I almost wish the tops and bottoms could be sold separately because I’d get my daughter a 4t top and 3t bottom. Material is nice and thick & I anticipate it lasting a very long time. My daughter said “I wuv it so much!”. It’ll be perfect for our Disney trip this summer.
