Rounding Out My Last Fall Semester

As I finally get a chance to sit down and reflect on my last fall semester, I am left with feelings of happiness and maybe a bit of longing for Purdue. Though the road to being a senior was a long and windy one, I feel that every moment whether good or bad has made me who I am today and led me to great opportunities.

At the beginning of the fall semester I was not sure of what I wanted to do in my time after I graduated and it seemed as if though I did not have many options. However, I persevered and continued to work at finding a job. I can say without a doubt that here at the start of the spring semester the situation had taken a complete turn and I had many more opportunities than I would have ever expected just months ago.

Long story short, if things do not seem to be working out, rely on your support system and keep working hard and eventually things will turn out better than you could have ever have expected. Through my time here at Purdue I am thrilled to say that my work ethic has been tested and improved. I was always told by many people “you get out what you put in”. I took this quote to heart here at Purdue and made the most of it. I encourage all of you to do the same in your time at Purdue.
