SomedayI'llSOAR
"I was born in the arms of imaginary friends"
I'm Twenty-one. Pacific Northwest raised. Communication Studies Major, Environmental Studies Minor at CWU, hakuna matata. At this point John Mayer summarizes my life through song better than I can in words, however I'm learning to do it for myself and use his words as a complement to my adventures. I enjoy a good book, song, concert, meal, sunrise, outfit, and company, eventually getting lost in thoughts about the future. From time to time I enjoy a good game of baseball too, if I do, it’s the Yankees or Mariners. I want to spend the rest of my life in college, helping college students grow into the people they aspire to become. This is about my growth as an aspiring professional in Higher Education, my subtle obsession with John Mayer and how a odd balance of the two keep me inspired as I move towards my dreams.

The John Mayer speech that changed my life. Columbus, OH 3/12/2010
“Everybody’s life has lines in it. Chapter marks. Everybody’s life has chapter...

I alway tried to think “Well wait! Not so fast you don’t have it yet.” or I tried to think of what would happen if I didn’t get the Summer Leadership Institute but I never actually considered the idea of actually not getting it. Not a single time. It was in my Summer plans as an “if”, but only until it was confirmed affirmative.
It never occurred to me that I actually wouldn’t get it. So what now? I’m watching all of my Fellow Colleagues post on Facebook about how they got they got it and I feel like I’m the only one. I know that I’m not the only one.
I’m on the waitlist for something that people just don’t turn down, and I bet that everyone who didn’t get it is on the waitlist. So it’ll take more than one person to turn it down for me to attend if I’m so lucky.
So my luck and ability to attend depends on someone else’s inability to attend, which is a thought that I don’t like so much because it will be one of my Colleagues that will be unable to attend and I want all of us to have the ability to go, which just isn’t possible.
I have so many opportunities and I’ve had such good fortune lately that good news can’t be far away. It seems silly to be sad when I list off the great things that have happened for me. This just means that I was meant to experience something different this summer.
