 My social life has been quite interesting, I'll say. I started out by not being involved in any activities or really having any friends. I actually remember my first semester on campus. I would sit in the library every day because I didn't drive at the time and I'd wait for my mother to pick me up after work. So I would hide in the corner of the library for three and four hours at a time. I kid you not. And I would eat my lunch and I would always say, I wish there was someone on campus that I could talk to. So my sophomore year I joined the Student Activities Council and throughout that process of, you know, working all the student-led events on campus, I had everyone to talk to. And I remember my mother telling me a few months back, remember when you said you wish you had someone on campus to talk to and now you have everyone to talk to? She said it's amazing how things change over time. So that has definitely been a journey. Social life, it is what you make it and that's at any campus. You know, if you choose to stay in your room there is nothing to do. Choose to get out and mingle. There's everything to do. So being able to be at this college where I'm surrounded by multiple different people with different cultures and different backgrounds, I'm able to once I leave college and join a company where the same situation where there's multiple different cultures from around the world and I'm able to meet and learn from those people just like I do here at ECSU. Open House got me here but let me tell you what happened since. As a freshman I was not involved sophomore and junior year. I got more involved on campus. I am now the SGA Vice President of Administration. I hear the voice of the student body. I'm a student leader and I make a difference on campus. This university molded me and made me who I am today. Understanding that academics is not the main priority but it is a priority but not the main priority. There's other aspects to the college's experience and this university has gave me everything that I needed and I appreciate it. I feel like when I first got here I wasn't as confident I guess in myself but like with the professors I've had they've pushed me and made me realize that I'm good enough and I can do anything.
