Favorite quote "Dardan, stop!"- Global

Favorite activities/ pass times/ hobbies My favorite activities include sports like hockey football and longboarding. I also listen to music and hang out with my friends.

Favorite foods I enjoy eating foods from a variety of cultures like Indian and Mexican

What is global for you Global for me is the next step. A step that sends me toward what the real world is like and it allows me to break out of the secure bubble I have been living in as a sheltered suburb kid.

How global changed me Global has changed me in more ways than one. I gained a boost in confidence in social situations and during presentations, and I developed a much better understanding of time management.

What are your values My values are my family and friends, music, and a sense of independence. I value my family and friends because they allow me to do my own things and find my own way, but I know whenever I need help in any circumstance that they are there to help. I value music because I believe it holds the power to change ones mood, and lastly I value independence because I hate the feeling of being needy, it makes me feel as if I’m not living.

What is your answer to the meaning of life Everybody has their own meaning in life. As for me I feel life is about fulfilling any dreams you desire.

Unexpected things learned from global I learned more about myself in Global than I had learned about myself my whole life. I didn’t expect this because I thought I would learn more about other cultures and gain a different perspective on the world, not a different perspective on myself

What is your favorite global project My favorite Hlobal project was Colony to Nationhood. Although the night before I stayed up until 4:45 AM, and going through three pots of coffee between two people just trying to polish the presentation, I had a blast setting up and presenting the hour long presentation to the class.
