This is the first blog post I have done for Audio week, let me just say this was a challenge in itself. Thats what school is all about though! Trial and Error.

The goal is to describe your life in two minutes or any kind of stubborn, obstacles, challenges you have overcome in your life that defines who you are as a person now.

I never viewed myself as the athletic type in any context. Especially being on a team that involves everyones input or else the whole team fails together. I decided for some reason that I felt in my gut to join the Crew Team at Mary Washington. It was one of the most life changing experiences I have had and will probably ever have at College.

Rowing is physically and mentally demanding. It is extremely time consuming and your life starts to revolve around the sport. I learned that I can work with a team but it takes patience and drive. By the end of the semester after losing every single Regatta (basically a rowing competition) we made it to finals and made it in third place at our last one. This was the most rewarding feeling to know that a whole semester of blood, sweat, and tears (literally all three) paid off. I never felt so accomplished in my life or happier to be apart of a team, knowing that I contributed to the success.

I recorded myself via Sound Cloud. I clicked the “share” button above the recorded audio. I was then given a code and pasted it directly into the “HTML” box on my word press post!
