In the context of my autobiography essay, it's essential to understand my background. My name is Tharun, and I was born on December 18, 2004, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. My parents are Suresh and Karolina. Unfortunately, both of my grandparents have passed away. My grandmother passed away when I was just four years old, in 2008, at the age of 65 due to lung cancer, which was a result of her lifelong smoking habit. As a child, I tried to convince her to quit smoking, but she wouldn't listen. My grandfather, on the other hand, passed away at the age of 69 in 2010 from a massive heart attack, right after Spain won the World Cup against the Netherlands with a score of 2-1. His lifelong smoking habit likely contributed to his health issues. Fortunately, I have been wise enough to avoid picking up that harmful habit.
My early childhood was spent in a relatively privileged environment around the year 2009. My father worked as a computer system analyst for Q-net, and my mother was a jewelry designer. Being an only child, I had a joyful and somewhat spoiled upbringing. My grandparents divorced when I was eight years old, but they both remarried within a year of the divorce. My grandfather remained married to my step-grandmother until his passing, while my grandmother would go on to marry two more times. Despite their divorce, both of my grandparents kept me out of their personal conflicts, and they got along fine at events where both were present. I lived with my parents until I was 16 and in high school.
During my sophomore year of high school, I began to associate with friends who led me down a troublesome path. My friend Aaron and I engaged in various activities, including neglecting homework and eating in class. I was on a dangerous trajectory, but I was fortunate to recognize it before causing any significant harm. I decided to change my environment by moving in with my uncle switching high schools, and choosing new friends to avoid further trouble.
This fresh start allowed me to complete my primary education without further incidents. My dream was to graduate from Nobel International School High in 2020. Despite my earlier questionable behavior, I always aspired to become a radiologist surgeon, a career I could only pursue after turning 18. To pass the time and stay out of trouble, I worked at a sports shop as a cashier while studying. I also considered joining the army, which led me to Fort Benning, Selangor, for basic training, advanced infantry training, and airborne jump school. The army experience proved to be transformative and helped me straighten out my troubled teenage years.
After my military service, I waited tables and bartended while going through the lengthy application process to enroll at Oxford University. Upon completing my studies, I was finally ready to pursue my dream of becoming a radiologist surgeon. I applied to the Cleveland Clinic in the United States, which is renowned as the world's best hospital, and Assistance Hopitaux Publique de Paris, the ninth-ranked hospital globally, located in France, where my favorite football team plays.
I was hopeful to be accepted by Assistance Hopitaux Publique de Paris, but unfortunately, Cleveland Clinic did not require additional radiologist surgeons due to their existing staff. Fortunately, I was accepted into Assistance Hopitaux Publique de Paris in 2025, making me the youngest radiologist surgeon in France. All my hard work and dedication had paid off, just as my grandfather had advised me: "Suffer now and enjoy in the future."
I quickly gained recognition as the highest-paying radiologist surgeon in the world. However, the demanding nature of my profession left me with little time for rest, which occasionally delayed surgeries. I attributed my endurance to my time in medical school, where I had learned the mantra, "No pain, no gain." During my time at the hospital, I discovered an alarm that would notify me when a patient needed my assistance. Remarkably, it took me nearly two years to realize its existence, which left me frustrated once I discovered it. However, I persevered and continued to improve my skills.
After completing 150 surgeries, I achieved the title of the world's best surgeon, the best radiologist surgeon, and the world's youngest surgeon. My career was flourishing, and my life was amazing. However, one day, a patient suffered a major heart attack, and there were not enough doctors available to assist. As a specialist in heart surgery, I took on the responsibility alone, working tirelessly for 10 hours to save the patient's life. The patient's survival was a testament to my dedication, and my colleagues and superiors recognized my efforts by doubling my salary from $330,000 to $667,000. It was a life-changing moment.
Inspired by my success and driven by a desire to make a difference, I collaborated with my brother, the CEO of a prominent construction company, to build a home for an orphanage. Despite the considerable cost of $1 million, the result was a magnificent structure that resembled five bungalows combined.
I also had a dream to meet all the football players from Paris Saint-Germain before I die. My life had been a remarkable journey, filled with challenges, hard work, and a dedication to achieving my goals.
