legacy
For the rest of the first general meeting
and the whole weekend, I tried to remain enthusiastic while yelling out bits and pieces of
cheers, and I guess I played it off well since I
got Star of the Moment. Now I don’t want to
bore you all with what you already know went
down at DCON, so I’ll just end my little blab
here. Even though I personally did not completely fulfill the point of DCON (service, leadership, and leadership), I still enjoyed my time
there, especially meeting new people and participating in the talent show.

. . . But I guess I wanted to
try something new and DCON
brought out a side of me that I
myself didn’t even know I had.
I met and got to know people outside of
UCLA. After meeting UCI students in the
lobby, we ended up making board games together; where else would you get to do this?
DCON provided me with the opportunity to
expand my connections as well as allowing
me to do something I’d never do: perform
a hip-hop piece in front of a large crowd. I
didn’t expect myself to even be part of the
talent show, but I guess I wanted to try something new and DCON brought out a side of
me that I myself didn’t even know I had. I
didn’t think I’d be that social; in fact, I didn’t
even think I was that social during DCON until
people were telling me afterwards.
From late night talent show practices, to
getting my face and hair painted, to getting
Denny’s before the 8am caucus, to chanting cheers I didn’t eve ???? ?YY][???]? [?K ? H ????? ? ? H [[????? ? H[??K[? ? ?^Z[?? \ [?[??[?XZ?[?? ??\?? ?]P?H[???S??? Y[? ?[? H??K] [?[????\????[??YYH ???[?YH? ?]?\??H??[????? HY[[?Y\?P?H??KY\??\?X?X[ H?\?Z[? [?H
