Day 4: The departure - 12:42
So today we woke up, packed our stuff and left the hotel at 9:00 on the dot.
On the trip there was some wack music being played and a few of us IFC men decided that complaining wasn't going to make change. As Gandi once said, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." In that spirit, we took to the iPhones and Laptops and started a revolution. After a battle of the bands style face-off with the people in power, they began to see our side and validate our opinions. Once we got some well deserved payback, we decided that it was time to come to a compromise as we played Hakuna Matata for the homestretch of our NGLA '17 adventure.
All in all, this conference was truly eye-opening. I loved having the opportunity to hear so many motivational speakers passing on knowledge to me and inspiring me to crave change in my chapter and the overarching Bridgewater State University community as a whole.
I can honestly say that this is a time that I will never forget. The bonding experience with other Greek members was unparalleled by anything I have ever experienced to this point. With opportunities like such as this one, having an open mind is important, but having an open door is what really matters.
If you ever get the opportunity to attend NGLA, open the door.
Over and out,
Tristen
