And just like that.....

The Michigan Difference. If you know a Wolverine, past or present, you have heard this saying. All Wolverines pride themselves on this difference and being the Leaders and Best. The question: what is this difference we speak so highly of? Coming to Michigan we were the top of class. Albeit athletically, scholarly, or financially. For most of us high school was not a difficult task. Personally, I breezed through high school. I didn't have to study and most things came easy to me. This was not the case when i got to Michigan. I struggled for a lot of things at U of M financially, emotionally, physically, and grades. And I know many of my classmates had similar struggles. We became self-motivated, determined fighters!! That difference is FIGHT!!

Yesterday, I found that my Aunt Lou (my grandmother's sister) passed. This is my first time dealing with the of someone so close to me. When my sisters and I spent summers in Detroit we spent a majority of our time with her. It has been hard for me to deal with mostly because my grandmother has lost both of her younger sisters. The only thing I can think of is that my grandmother being the oldest is going to be gone soon as well.
