Coming from Texas, I wanted to explore something new and different. I took a jump of courage to go to a school half-way across the country. I didn’t want to stay in-state. I didn’t know when the next opportunity like this would arise.
I handle the four majors by pure will and determination. Being organized is something that I am still learning, but it is something that I am getting better at. My Google calendar is filled with all my classes and meetings that I need to go to, helping me know what responsibilities I have planned for the day. Being organized is crucial for being able to handle my workload and still make wonderful memories with my friends, as I will continue to make sure I make and have that time for myself and them.
