An Insightful Reflection

Last year, I went to INSIGHT as a general member not knowing what to expect at all, and I ended up having an amazing experience.  This year, as the Conventions and Conferences Chair, I knew exactly what to expect, or so I thought.  Having planned the event, I thought there would be no major surprises for me, but I was wrong.  You can plan out each and every minute of an event.  You can plan out what member goes in which team, what time we’ll be eating a certain meal, and even the best method that a person can use to scare someone during a haunted walk.  However, I forgot you can’t plan out the way you’ll feel when you see your old friends, make new ones, and form connections with the most unexpected of people.  It was these “unplanned” experiences that made INSIGHT so fun and meaningful for me this year, and as always, it did not fail to be an incredible experience.  Of course, none of it would have been made possible without the help of the rest of the New Jersey District Board, Rutgers Circle K (our host club), and the countless others who helped make this event possible, and I am thankful to all those who helped make it such a great event this year.
