An Honor that Means Everything

I work very hard for the students at Saint Leo. I never thought when I stepped foot on campus that I would do as much as I’ve done. I help 3 great people design and run events that happen on and off campus, I ask questions to see what the students want to see, and things that they would like to do while they are at SLU. My roommate and I also opened our door up to incoming freshman and transfers, to show them a residence hall room, so they had an idea of where they will be living the next year. When they asked questions, about anything, I tried my best to answer them in all honesty, without painting a fake picture in their mind of what college is really like. I love helping those around me, and making sure everyone is enjoying Saint Leo as much as I do. Well, the student government recently had an awards ceremony in honor of those students who lead, and do many things that honor the core values. I was ecstatic when I received an invitation. It was proof that even though I may forget from time to time, I am a leader around campus, and people do look at me as someone they can come to. The night of the awards, I received recognition for my work with the Campus Activities Board, as well as most outstanding freshman female. This was a complete shock to me. I knew I had helped, but what I didn’t know is how much it meant to others. Like I said before, I work very hard, but it is truly never for me. That award was for me, and it means more to me than anything that people notice how hard I work, so thank you SGU and Saint Leo.
