My leadership with the Honors Club has consisted of organizing and leading the club meetings, giving information about different activities, responding emails and text messages, and coordinating and volunteering with PACC.
Somehow I always get the feeling that I could do more. I was excited about my leadership position before the semester started because I thought I was going to have a lot of time to get involved in all the honors activities. I found this to be very far from reality once the semester started, since I am taking 14 credits, working part time, and volunteering. I also have to take care of my house, which is a lot of work.

So far this semester we have about 12 new, committed volunteers.
I have also been volunteering with Goodwill, tutoring every other Thursday from 1 to 5. I enjoy this very much. I like to meet young people and watch them try to improve themselves and succeed. Many of them are also very amusing. They say very interesting
