21st Century Leaders

Turner Youth Voices has been a program where 75 people from the state of Georgia were brought in from over 38 schools in 20 counties. I was given the very fortunate opportunity to make it into the program, and here are 8 reasons that you should apply as well.

1. Connections with new people

With 75 people from 38 schools in 20 counties, there are going to be so many new people you will meet there.

2. Connect with top-level executives

From a news anchor to an accountant, you meet people who are very passionate about their jobs.

3. Can help find a career path

Not sure what you want to do? Well, this camp will show you the numerous career paths that are there in a single company.

4. Lots of activities

From the basic name game, to various other activities such as jazz dancing and sharks and minnows.

5. Helps you get into a strict schedule

Go to bed at 11 PM and get up by 6 AM- a feat that is not common in the summertime.

6. Improves speaking skills

Giving a speech can be nerve- racking, but once you give it a try, it really gives you the confidence to do it many times.

7. Experience a College Campus

The program is held at Georgia Tech, and the campus there is a wonderful sight.

8. Teaches about leadership

It's in the name itself- being a 21st- Century Leader is a big honor, and not only have you done so many activities, you also learn how to develop the potential leadership that is brimming in you.

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours.
