"You can't amaze the world until you first surprise yourself.."

Overall, I do not find myself to be uniquely creative. Anytime I start a project or something of the sort, I almost always ask for other peoples input and opinion on whatever it is that I'm doing. I am not the kind of person that can simply come up with something creative on my own most of the time. When I have things and/or ideas to work with, I'm able to put things together in a way that is creative. I can be creative when given the resources, input, and not too much time to come up with something. When I'm put in a situation to be creative, one thing that always gets me is the brainstorming process. Either I'm able to come up with something fast or I think of something and need much extra input. If you haven't noticed, I find input/opinions vital in achieving success in creativity...much like Kermit's Rule 3-Bouncing Ideas.

I plan to bring creativity to my position on SLT by formulating different/unique/not-yet-attempted ways of reaching more out into the SEU community. HLD is an amazing program/organization on campus that not enough people know about/have misperceptions of. I hope to achieve "creative/unique" ways to reach out to the campus this year with y'all.

My absolute favorite form of communication is one-on-one with another person. It tends to be the easiest way to dig up what others are thinking about whats goin on within a group when out of the group setting. In the group setting, you'll hear mainly, what I call, surface level opinions. When I get that one-on-one communication going, I'm able to learn so much more. When I'm working with a group, I typically am the sit-back and take it all in kind of person, or the quiet one. If I have something to contribute to the group or have a different take on something, I'll voice it.

&& like Erica, I'm usually very reachable by text, phone, or email...in order of best way to contact moi!

I'm wondering if this is as long as I think it'll be...we'll see! Can't wait to see y'all in only a few days! So ready!!
