Everyone say hi to Lindsay! Lindsay is a junior in the engineering school at The University of Michigan. Not only is she studying engineering, but she is studying nuclear engineering! Woah! Yes, Lindsay is smart. Very smart. Not only is Lindsay smart when it comes to school. But she is smart when it comes to life. Lindsay knows that people should be treated with respect and kindness, and that no one is better than anyone else.
Lindsay is the type of person you meet and instantly want to be friends with because of her genuine interest in the lives of others. She's a good listener, which in turn makes her an even better friend. There have been plenty of times I have noticed myself venting to Lindsay about my life and my problems, not even realizing the things I am saying. However, being around Lindsay is comfortable, and she knows how to make someone feel lucky, happy, and included. She is willing to do what it takes to make her friends feel great, and that is why we love her.
The first time I met Lindsay was outside of the student union on campus. She was in the midst of choosing which sorority to pledge, and couldn't have been any more calm about it. While almost every other girl around us was in tears or screaming or hugging each other due to nerves, Lindsay stood there in her sneakers and jeans with her hands in her pockets, a huge smile on her face, asking if I wanted to go to Buffalo Wild Wings to get food. It was at this moment I knew Lindsay would be a fun one.
And I was right. Although she spends a lot of time working and studying, Lindsay knows how to have fun. Whether it be tailgating a football game or dancing at a fraternity house, Lindsay knows that at the end of the day, she doesn't need to take herself too seriously. While I'm not sure she knows it, I'm pretty sure her secret motto is 'work hard, play hard'.
