Priorities

PRIORITIES

Right out of high school coming up with priorities has proved to be a difficult task. But the summer before I came to the University of Oklahoma I came up with four priorities that I could follow for the next four years here. Faith, Family, School and Friendship.

FAITH

Is my number one priority. Having a relationship with God is the most important thing in my life. Because without him I would not be the person I am today. He is my guidance. He never leads me in the wrong direction. And every struggle or hardship that I go through, he is with me, giving me strength and endurance to handle it all.

FAMILY

Is my second priority because at the end of the day, your family has been with you since the beginning. My mom, dad, brother, and even my two dogs mean the world to me. It's important to keep in touch with them this year and to go home and visit as often as I. I would not be here at OU without my mom and dad. Their constant love and support has driven me to find success here and to continue to strive for bigger and better things in my future.

School

Is my third priority because education is the key to a successful life and future. Every decision I make here at OU from now until 2013 will play a positive or negative role in the life ahead of me. Doing well in my classes is the reason why I am here. Having fun and making friends is also important but making good grades and establishing a name for myself comes first above all things.

Friendship

Is my fourth and finally priority. My goal is to not only make new friends and establish friendships here at OU but I want to continue to have the friendships that I left back home. Without the friends in high school that I had, my life would not be the same. Jenna, Parker, Adam, Jim and many more all contributed to making my high school experience worth while and I owe it to them to remain close to them.
