To The Woman Who Changed My Life

Thank you for never giving up on me.

To The Woman Who Changed My Life
Danielle Walls

What can you say to the perfect woman other than "thank you?" Thank you for teaching me to be a leader and for answering my two million questions a day. Thank you for believing in me even when I felt like I couldn't do anything right. Thank you for working your butt to make Tri Delta the best it can be. Thank you for being a shining example of exactly who I want to be. I love you, Sister President.

I remember Bid Day when I told Tri Delta "no" while sitting on the couch next to my youngest brother. A few weeks later, I said "no" again and again. I did not want Tri Delta until you held a bid card out to me; it was you who changed my mind, and it was you who initiated the change in my life. For that, I cannot thank you enough.

You pushed me to become secretary and worked closely with me to mentor me and, now I know, prepare me for things to come. The day you passed the President's ring to me is the day I realized how amazing you truly are. When I have my doubting days, you push aside your own worries to comfort me and give me advice. There has never been a day when you have not told me exactly what I needed to hear even if it was to get my butt in gear. When I have thousands of questions, you take your time to answer each one.

You've made me laugh more times than I can count between inappropriate subjects that shouldn't be mentioned here to Disney movies and karaoke. Your happiness is so contagious, and I cannot imagine my life without your laugh. You are such a beautiful soul, and there is not a sane person who does not love you.

Meg, you have changed my life for the better, and I cannot thank you enough. Thank you for never giving up on me.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever.
