I love the University of Connecticut. I miss the University of Connecticut.
It has made me who I am so far.
I have taken a lot away from the people I have gotten to know and met there.
There are so many people that I met that have influenced who I am today. I can't list all of them. They include so many people I met in athletics and my various associations with it, including Coach Auriemma and the Women's Basketball program. Through reporting on them and watching their practices they taught me the intensity needed to succeed. They taught me how to pursue perfection everyday.
These people effect who I am and have made me a better person. I want to be around them and people like them again. I really miss UConn and all of the great people who made me better.
My goal for a long time has been to work there. To work my way up and be there forever.
And thankfully, I have freed myself from that goal. I still have it, but it's no longer a main focus. I'm not desperate, nor seeking to come back. I hope to, but I don't need to.
It's nice having that feeling. It's nice to know I can live without it even though when I live it will always be a part of me.
I may be at a different school now, but I am always a Husky. I still get chills when I watch videos like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fnnEHF8Hjk
I watch that video to pump me up and motivate me. It captures my attention and gets me going. It gives me confidence. It reminds me to never settle because I am a UConn Husky.
Right now I can't picture myself ever working there. That's ok with me. I'll keep working and maybe one day their need can be filled by my skills.
