The People We Meet… June 10, 2009

I wanted to sit down this evening and write about something most people experience when they attend Stevenson University.  It’s no secret that the people we meet at Stevenson will forever change our lives.  Whether it’s a roommate, a classmate, a staff member, a faculty member, or just a friend – I have learned that these people will mean something to you whether you are home for the summer or a fresh graduate prepared for the life ahead of us all.  I obviously love my boss and most of my teachers, but this past semester I met a girl who has turned into my best friend.


 On my first day of class of my second semester, I sat beside a girl who to be totally honest scared me to the point where I wanted to move.  But as the days progressed, our first words were spoken and a connection began.  As the semester went on, we became closer and closer and now we are pretty much like sisters.  Not only did we survive Physics and Psychology together, we have been there for one another through some pretty difficult challenges.  Her name is Amanda Marsh and she is amazing.  I don’t know anyone who would drive almost 2 hours to my house to go watch a Show Choir show.  Yes, I said it; we live almost 2 hours apart.  I miss her every fricken day!

But our friendship really displays one of the best qualities of Stevenson University.  At our school, we have a lot of diverse people – but there are also people that can change your life and even end up being exactly like you.  I am thankful for such an amazing best friend.  If there is one thing that I have learned my freshman year it’s that the people we meet can really change our lives.  So when you’re at Stevenson, be open minded – give people a chance.  You wouldn’t want to miss out on something life changing.
