Change is something that many people are afraid of because it's something that they don't know. Everything changes from seasons to people; we all change. Change is something that we all need. It's how to make life interesting and not the same thing day in and day out. Doing the same thing all the time gets boring so you have to spice it up every now and then.

I'm one of those people that used to not like change. I'll be the first to say that I'm still a little afraid of it. But I'm here to tell you, CHANGE IS GOOD.

I had my first big change when I went away to college. Coming to Eastern was something I knew would be good for me, but it was one of the scariest things I could've done. But just y'all look at me 4 years later. I'm in love with this university. I'm not sure exactly when it happened, but one day I realized this was my home.

My second big change was when I became a member of Alpha Sigma Tau. This was something that I never thought in a million years I would do. My life went from zero to busy and I actually loved it. I loved not being stuck in my room. I fell in love with our values and the sisterhood, and I would never turn back. It has made the last 4 years the best years of my life.

Then you have minor changes like getting my nose pierced, cutting and dying my hair. All are small changes but still changes.

People change too. They grow. They go through things that make them the people they are today.

So when I say change is good. I mean it. Change has benefited me so much more than you know. Next time you are faced with a change, embrace it. And as Meredith Grey once said,"sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Sometimes change is everything."
