Reflections of a graduating senior

Brenda Leitz-Heithoff

With only a week ’til I graduate, I reflect on my time at Iowa State.

I am the student you never see; the quiet one in the corner, remember me?

I am the one who doesn’t follow the group; I take my own path, I’m out of the loop.

I have no regrets, but lately I fear that no one will ever know I was here.

So, before I bid this campus goodbye, I’ll attempt to answer the question “Who am I?”

My name is Brenda, I’m married to Dan; I love ice cream, I’m Drew Carry’s biggest fan.

I commute, I ski, I count stars at night. My major is family services, but I just want to write.

I work very hard; success is my mission. I’m the second sibling in the start of an Iowa State tradition.

I’ve shook Jischke’s hand; a million books I have read. I get my best quotes from “Beavis and Butthead.”

I aspire to be God, I’ve never missed a class; I’ve got where I am without kissing ass.

I don’t judge people by only what I see. I’m an advocate of personal responsibility.

To sum it up, this ride has been fun. It’s easy to say that now that I’m done!
