New Beginnings

The first day of junior year is looming, and I have an 8:30 am Finance class to ring it in. In the meantime, I have come to some rather unexpected and important conclusions.


1. I will soon be entering society as a functional being because my tax contributions will vastly increase, therefore my value as a citizen will increase respectively.

2. It is time to settle into relationships. Not boyfriends, but friends. I love meeting new people but with the conclusion of summer came the conclusion that my established friendships are the ones that will be lasting. Along with that, is the realization that friendships take effort-on both ends. And it is time to lay to rest those that are not reciprocated, deceitful, and/or unhealthy. Which does not mean that those relationships have to end altogether, but simple common courtesy can take its place.

3. Being level headed in compromising situations takes purposeful, conscience effort. (And is quite the characteristic to have in your arsenal).



To kick of the school year, Dr. Danielle Babb answered the question "Why get an education? How do you convince anyone you are worth anything if you don't invest in yourself?"
