How I've grown

Since coming to Iowa State I have grown in many ways. I am more social than ever, always talking to new people and making new acquaintances. Now that I am at Iowa State I have noticed that my drive to succeed is higher than ever. I never hesitate to try a new experience and do anything to secure success in my future. Living on my own has also helped me grow in responsibility. I can't just throw my dishes in the dish washer and not think about them I actually have to get up and do something about them if I don't want to live in a disgusting room full of mold. Most of all, I think, I have grown in acceptance. In my small town nobody accepted anything that was different. Now that I am in a more diverse community, I have notice that I am much more accepting of peoples' differences and diversities, and actually respect them for it.
