It was hard for me to some up with a topic, because there are so many things that I love. I wanted to find something that I would actually be passionate about. One of those things is: getting to know people.
While I was in New York on a business trip this summer, I learned of an Instagram account called Humans of New York. (http://www.humansofnewyork.com)
An anonymous person would stroll through the concrete jungle and talk to random people to find their story, or ask them a significant question about themselves. Afterwards they would add a picture to Instagram and put their dialog underneath. It was so inspiring to me and I love that they used social media this way. With New York being such a big city, there is no possible way you could meet them all, but by featuring a plethora of individuals on social media and telling a bit of their story, you feel like you are more in touch with the city.

I would like to do something similar for Texas State. Rather than just a few sentences about someone or a group of people, I’d like to give them paragraphs. A way that even the most unnoticed and yet most interesting of students can have a word.
I would like my color scheme to be my own take on the Texas State University colors, not so bland as maroon and gold but perhaps a combination of various shades of maroon and gold with other colors added in, because it will be unique, like the people I’m writing about.
