"Change is never fine."
- Sheldon Cooper, The Big Bang Theory
As most of my friends send back texts home to see how I am doing, I wonder. I wonder what would have happened if I left the state. If I went North and found out how south the South is. Or if I like Lewis and Clark discovered the West Coast. But, most of all I wonder how things would be different if everyone stayed here. Sure I miss my friends, but more than anything I miss being part of groups, societies, sports teams, et cetera. Although the Honors College has cool clubs and sweet societies, there isn't a real sense of unity among all these students that previous to a couple semesters ago probably did not know (and did not care) that these others existed. Change is never fine, I guess. I could probably be saying the same in another school, assuming there really are other dimensions with different possibilities. But, I am going to change this. This I promise to you, Honors College. I will make a soccer club, a FIFA frat, a social society, I don't know exactly what but I will make it. My legacy for this school will not be limited to my academic excellence, but to what I left for future students to enjoy. Because sometimes change isn't just fine, it is necessary.
