I was a bit taken aback that they changed the destination and journey around in terms of importance, but in the end I managed to shape all my texts to suit the question.

All in all, awesome question!!!!!!

This was the first time ever I actually finished question 3. Very proud... The question was agreeable too.

Yeah... same here. Though I liked the 'journey is more important' thing, made more sense about :?

Overall, a very good question.

It was what i expected and i managed to refer to all the relevant texts i studied. The important thing i did was refer to the statement given.

u could've gone either way. that is, the destination is more important or the journey is more important.
it was a discussion-based question.

"The journey not the arrival is what matters"
