I GOT AN AWARD 🏆💫

I received the Outstanding Graduate Student Award 🏆 from Missouri State University yesterday!

i am so happy and proud of myself ❤️!

i have done so much over the last four years.

Being a college D1 Scholar athlete, A researcher, a professional dancer, a fashionista/ model/ artist and a local advocate has been a ride 💫🥹👏🏾.

all the way from New Jersey i moved halfway across the country to pursue my education at Missouri State, and i have done so much and Missouri State University has been so good to me 🐻💫.

Being in this area of the world has been such a challenge for me, but i am so proud and thankful for all the good people around me.

I work very VERY hard. Waking up at 4am and going to bed at 12 am is a constant struggle but it is worth it.

All i ever really wanted to do was increase cohesiveness, and encourage people to accept eachother for their differences and be nice to people! i make new friends everyday on my campus because i want to know people from ALL over 🤩❤️.

i hope that anyone and everyone strives to be the best that they can, along with being as respectful, and nice to the people around them as possible. all you really have to do is smile and be polite ❤️💫🤩 in a world full of negativity 🌎 be the smiling 😁, shining ✨, sunshine ☀️!

... Read moreAchieving an outstanding graduate student award is a significant milestone that reflects hard work, dedication, and the ability to overcome challenges. Many graduates face similar journeys, juggling academics, extracurricular activities, and personal responsibilities. As someone who moved from New Jersey to Missouri to pursue education, I've experienced the value of stepping outside one's comfort zone. This experience taught me not just academic success, but the importance of community and support. The bonds formed with those around you can uplift and inspire. Furthermore, embracing diversity and fostering a sense of belonging on campus are essential for personal growth. Extending kindness to peers can create positive ripple effects in the educational environment. In the pursuit of academic excellence, it is critical to remember that maintaining a work-life balance is crucial to sustain motivation. Structuring one’s daily routine effectively contributes to overall wellness, enabling individuals to thrive in all areas of life. In a world often focused on competition, highlighting and celebrating each other's achievements can lead to a more cohesive community. Let’s empower each other by sharing stories of success and promoting a culture of positivity and encouragement among future generations of students.
