- What's the most inspiring event/person/occurance you have seen recently?
- I was able to be a part of the Step It Up 2007 rally at St. Lawrence in a pretty big way, I was responsible for bringing in as many people as possible, and for making sure all bills were paid. That event pulled in 120 people which is big for our school, so that was very inspiring to me.
Meeting Governor Deval Patrick this summer after he signed the landmark Green Communities bill for Massachusetts, that was quite an eye-opening and inspiring event. He was really nice and down to earth and he even asked me about how my summer was going, even staying around long enough for me to tell him about it. I left that day feeling more confident and motivated than ever. :)
