“It 's not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving.” Those wise words come from the one and only, Mother Teresa.

From the Resident Assistant position I hope to learn management skills, a proper balance of order and fun, and better leadership skills. First of all, I feel management skills will have to be learned while being a Resident Assistant because of the amount of duties I would be responsible for. Not only must I watch over an entire floor of girls, but I also need to attend meetings, keep paperwork, and report and listen to those ranked above me. In a lifetime, it is important to have management skills if you want to be promoted through careers. I believe the perfect time to start learning this is now.
While in our room, my roommate and I expect everyone to act like adults and have fun, we don’t want to get in any trouble with our Resident Assistant. I expect everyone to be serious and professional when we have study sessions or just trying to do homework. There isn 't a specific behavior to have when we are just hanging out, but the majority of the time everyone is always having fun and laughing. During the weekend the behavior changes and a lot of the people party hard and have so much fun during the weekend, while others study and focus on the school work we all hang out together but have different beliefs. I prefer to stay in on weekends, I like to hang out in my room and relax before classes start back the next week.
