Yesterday, I had the honor to
attend the Sonia Sotomayor talk she did here at the Lyman Center. The event started at 7 and was over a little
after 8. I really enjoyed her talk. When she talks, she really understands what
is being asked and goes above and beyond to answer it. Listening to her answers, you can tell how
genuine she really is. For example,
after she was done, she took the time to take pictures with the audience.
I liked her responses to the
questions asked. She talked about how
she felt as though being a woman was being harder than being a minority. That surprised me because I always thought
being a minority would be tougher on a person, but her reasoning made
sense.
The best thing I got out of her
talk was to focus on the experience and the process. So many times life passes by in front of our
eyes without us stopping to actually enjoy the process. In college I don’t want to stand back and
just let it go by. I will make the best
of it and appreciate the good bad and the ugly.
