It's the little things that count.

 "Enjoy the little things in life, for someday you will realize they were big things." -Unknown
   I'm constantly being called the little one in my group of friends mainly because I'm the youngest and the shortest. At times I may get irritated by it, but then I realize its no big deal. Everyone is born different whether they be super tall or super short that doesn't change who they are as a person.
   I spent one Summer dorming on the University of Hawaii at Manoa campus where I grew educationally, emotionally, and physically. My residential advisor, who's name was Katie Low taught me many things. That summer I gained not only a friend, but a great role model. She is attending the University of California-Berkley and graduating this year. She was kind and understanding, but at the same time knew where to put her foot down. She was even an athlete and loved to play basketball.
   Towards the end of the Summer I grew happy and sad. It was bittersweet because I was happy to go home, but sad to say that my Summer was over and I would no longer be seeing my friends I grew close to. Katie wrote me a letter addressing me by saying little lovely lata and from there I chose the name of my blog.
