Just keep working hard and enjoying college. Your "true" career may not reveal itself to you for years. Take this time to do you and discover what that really means. 

22. What's one piece of advice you'd give every undergraduate about networking?
Every move you make in college and person you meet changes you. Don't jump into anything too life changing, but when the moment comes, and you'll know it when it happens, don't be afraid.

Relationships/Family/Personal Stuff: 
23. Are you currently in a relationship? If so, with who and for how long?

Not yet though her Mom jokes about it a bit too much.

I'm currently embarking on an adventure known as eating better. I was taken to a magical apothecary called a "Co-op" yesterday by my new roommate. I'm slowly learning to understand the native hipsters. 

26. Anything you would like to share with other brothers through the blog regarding your relationship/family/personal life?
If any of you ever take anything from me please take a note from this past formal. For those of you that didn't know I asked Tori to be a Sweetheart of Phi Kappa Psi. If you've found someone who loves you unconditionally don't take that for granted. Get your act together if it isn't already and treat her/him with the love that they have shown you. True love is rare in this world.
