Memorable Quote: “And I definitely struggle with FOMO [Fear Of Missing Out]. But academically. And it often leads me to sign up for way too many things that I don't have time for. So I think one of my priorities is in college not doing that, you know, and instead, I'm kind of pushing myself to have that balanced, ideal life that I think I need to be at my best. So that's one of my priorities there.” Sarah Dufays.
