Hi Darian:

Good question!

I have to agree with waht Maurice said. I want to give back waht the
federation has given to me. I want to be able to help or mentor other
students in any way I can.

I also really was impressed with, and enjoyed how much support/help I
received when I posted uestions and I want to give that back. I
remember asking about convention and I had two or three people
offering to let me meet up with their respective groups and they
didn't even know me. But, they were willing to offer that kind of help
just so I could possibly feel more at ease traveling. Words can not
express how grateful I have been for all the support and I want to
contribute to that and give it back wherever and as much as I can!
