4/26 college

I am beyond thrilled to announce that I will be a part of Brown University's Class of 2019!!!

 Having been blessed and lucky enough to have gotten into all the schools I applied to, I had a very very very hard decision to make about where I wanted to spend my life for the next four years haha. Thankfully, I was lucky enough to visit Brown, and without that visit, I think, I might not have been so easily swayed (I kinda wanted to commit as soon as I left!!) Anyways, here are a few things that stuck out to me... When I visited the campus, I fell in love with Brown's community. It was super diverse. Honestly I don't know how other schools compare to Brown's diversity, but I seriously think Brown is the epitome of that word. Another thing, the people I met--teachers, students, and prospectives--were kind, open, and passionate. Sure the first two traits are great, but I am a giant giant believer in the power of passion so being able to be around and with such passionate people is something that stood out about this special school.  Also something really special about Brown is  something few schools in the country offer: an open curriculum. I have always always loved the idea of being able to learn everything and anything about everything and anything, and at Brown, I will be one step closer to doing that. 

Now, the one thing that suck about college besides debt and distance from home will be the lack of Cocco. There are no words to describe how much I will miss my dog :-((

Ultimately, I have prayed ENDLESSLY since October for help and guidance, and I think I have finally found it. I have finally found my college and future home, and I am so so so super excited. I am very happy with my decision and so exceptionally grateful for all of the support from my family and friends. You all rock.
