We Are, Because He Was

27 Jan We Are, Because He Was

Posted at 15:03h in All by

Yesterday, I watched JoePa’s memorial service, it has me feeling especially reminiscent and missing those (now) seemingless carefree days at University Park. Want to go through some pictures with me?

This was me my freshman year at Penn State. Please excuse my bad skin, dang-near-almost freshman 15 and whiskered jeans. Those gorgeous girls are two of my best friends and I would never have met them if it wasn’t for Penn State.

This was the first night we met!

When we met back in ’05, we were so young and excited to make our mark on the world. Now, to actually see these ladies taking the steps to do so is inspiring. The ups, the downs, the crazy parties, that time we all sat on the bed crying to Beyonce’s Resentment (yeaaaah, I just said that), I’m thankful to Penn State for the women that we are growing into.

I know that there are a lot of you reading in college right now. Whether or not you went to Penn State, this will truly be some of the most trying yet exciting times of your life. And those people that stick with you on the ride? They aren’t just your friends, they become your family.

Joe Paterno helped turn Penn State into a family. Hopefully, we’ll continue to do his legacy Penn State proud.

I mean how could you not after watching this?

Did you all have great college memories as well? Any advice for those in college reading now?

    I think there could become a handful of duplicates, but an exceedingly useful record! I’ve tweeted this. A lot of thanks for sharing!
