As I embark on my junior year of undergrad, freshman year seems like it happened a million years ago. Despite the time, however, I can recall the sweet, funny, and facepalm-worthy memories that define those months at ASU.
Meeting my LSP Cohort for the first time
As a member of the Leadership Scholarship Program, meeting the 24 other individuals who made up the 2016 Cohort was a big deal. Little did I realize I'd be meeting some of my closest friends!
The Orientation Photo
Because one's first college assembly is very different than any old high school assembly.
First football game!!
There's something incredible about walking into Sun Devil Stadium with a group of friends and feeling the game day spirit!
My first trip up to Sedona
A pre-finals road trip that was completely necessary. There was just about something the cooler weather, red rocks and good vibes that made finals easier to tackle.
Celebrating Winter Break
You can't leave for Winter Break without celebrating with the people you've grown closest with!
My first moody campus shot
Sometimes you leave Hayden Library and just feel a creative pull.
The thrill of group projects
High school had nothing on group work compared to freshman year.
My first college show
In which my theatre-major heart grew three sizes.
The most memorable Spring Break
A trip from Washington D.C. to New York City and back? Pretty legendary.
Opening the new chapter
After finishing an entire year of college, the best feeling is meeting someone about to do the same thing and getting to cheer them on.
