| That's Me! |
The most important people in my life could tell you almost as much about me as I can. Those people are my 3 sisters, my dad, my mom, and Steven (the guy I love). Katie is my oldest sister, she's 20 and a 3rd year at Miami University. Megan is a senior in high school this year (18 yrs. old). Heather is the youngest, she's 16 and a junior in high school. The four of us have been best friends all our lives, and they are the three best women I know. My parents divorced when I was seven and I never really got over it, but I will leave that for later.
I love Spanish, kids, and chocolate chip cookies.
It is important to me to have a successful life. I want to be a mother to at least 2 children, and have plenty of money to support them. It is important to me to be hard working--lazy people bother me.
If I had to use 3 words to describe myself I would say empathetic, caring, and determined.
Now for the second part of the question...how do I want to change the world? This question is pretty daunting for me, because honestly, I didn't sign up for this class to change the world. However, I would like to make a lasting impression in some way. A quote that I've always liked is "We must be the change we wish to see in the world." --Ghandi. I like this quote because I feel like by being the best person I can be, I can better serve others. I want to see the world continue to grow and make changes that are positive for everyone.
In my perfect world, happiness would be a constant in every person's life. Everyone would do warm-hearted deeds on a daily basis. If more of us dedicated ourselves and a portion of our lives to helping others, the world would absolutely be a better (and kinder) place.
Something I am trying to live by...
"Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some sort of battle"
I like your last quote. It really makes you think about not being selffish. Also I agree with you about not liking lazy people but I like them because they can be the most fun people to hangout with.
ReplyDeleteChelsea,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you completely. Pi Beta Phi has also instilled values in me that will last a lifetime. The four values that you have listed (family, honesty, friendship, and serving others) are all things that encompass the Angels at Pi Beta Phi. See you in class or at the house! haha
I agree with your goal of happiness. That would be awesome. And while I know that not everyone entered this class thinking about how they want to change the world, I'm still glad your thinking about it! We'll find ways to tie it into our sorority/fraternity experiences... I promise :)
