Advice from Lauren.......

Dear Graduating Seniors:

"College requires so much more responsibility and dedication, especially if you move far away from home like I did. Sure, your parents support you, but you really have to find your own motivation sometimes. If you are struggling and though you might not want to, let someone know, don’t deal with it on your own. Call your mom (or closest family member, but for me it’s my mom) even if you don’t feel like it. It will help you feel so much better. Call a counselor on campus or coach-there are so many support systems in college. People will want to help you! Even if the problem isn’t resolved, just talking to someone gives you the strength you might need to keep pushing."
