It&#8217;s something that I&#8217;ve just become used to because I attended school for so long. There have been many ups and downs along the way. However, attending Florida State University impacted me the most. I&#8217;ve grown so much in the past five years in ways that I could never imagine. I am so thankful and blessed for my opportunity to attend this wonderful University. I decided to talk about the university because I love it so much.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my favorite memories at Florida State University was becoming a University Ambassador (also known as a tour guide) and being able to share my love and experiences with other prospective students and families. This position on campus was unlike any other. My coworkers were not just my coworkers but became a new family away from home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/wescott.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-957\" width=\"464\" height=\"618\" srcset=\"https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/wescott.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/wescott-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 464px) 100vw, 464px\" \/><figcaption><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/61058656@N00\/3388850996\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;The Wescott Building, FSU&#8221;<\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/61058656@N00\" target=\"_blank\">kraaamer<\/a>\u00a0is licensed under\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/2.0\/?ref=openverse&amp;atype=rich\" target=\"_blank\">CC BY-NC 2.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I decided to edit a picture of the famous Wescott fountain because it is the last part where we end the tour of our beautiful campus. These experiences I had with random strangers on tour impacted me more than I would have thought. Each tour allowed me to reflect on my time spent at Florida State University due to the questions being asked on tour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-01-at-7.23.33-PM-edited.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-959\" width=\"396\" height=\"443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-01-at-7.23.33-PM-edited.png 466w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screen-Shot-2022-02-01-at-7.23.33-PM-edited-268x300.png 268w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 396px) 100vw, 396px\" \/><figcaption>&#8220;Wonderful Wescott&#8221; by Cameron Chisolm is licensed under\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/2.0\/?ref=openverse&amp;atype=rich\" target=\"_blank\">CC BY-NC 2.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I wanted to focus on the fountain because it is a key tradition on campus as well as the tour. many may not know this but on your very last time giving a tour you get to be thrown in the fountain as a way to conclude your time being an ambassador. I think this is one of the coolest traditions ever. Unfortunately, I never got the chance to be thrown in due to COVID but hopefully one day I get the chance. Either way, I will always be proud to be a Nole. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been a student for the past 17 years of my life.
