HEY THERE

 17.

To not take advantage of the gifts and opportunities we (college students) have in our hands is like washing gold down the drain. Even when I become overwhelmed with stress and anxiety, I still try my hardest to count my blessing and move forward. No one ever got to the position they desired by bitching about all that is on their plate. No one likes a whiner, so don’t be one. It’s called dead week for a reason. Put your hat on, head down and show the world what you are made of. Like our ex-president stated in his email to students, “Oregon is a place so often at the forefront of change, a crucible where innovators, dreamers, mavericks and fair-minded citizens devise new solutions to old problems. I still believe this is true,” and so do I.

If you stand with the hat then “stay the course, and don’t let disappointment prevail.”

Wise words from a wise man!
