Congrats buddy! Definitely looks very good on you and i am glad you found it!
And yes we all have different styles, growth patterns, colors etc, but in the end of the day you should grow the beard that you feel happy with, wether this is a year or a couple of weeks, that is upto you :-)))

Good luck with your studies and where ever life will take you :-). Thank you for all your inspirational posts and compliments!

Goodbye for now ;-)
