HI!
ONE MONTH DOWN, EIGHT TO GO! Time slow down!
This is Evy otherwise known as Chevy. Hailing from Charlotte, but fondly from Boone ROLL NEERS! I am so excited to be a Raleigh Fellow this year and excited for all the big and little things that come with that.
To be so honest, I was very unsure about coming here and what fellow life would look like. Leaving all the things I know and love to come to a place with all things I don’t know did not sound ideal. BUT I am pleasantly surprised at how much I have already come to love Raleigh Fellows. I want to shout out my wonderful house fam Mark and Mona (and the incredible cooking), my awesome buddy Linsey, my super cool mentor Emily, the 6th-grade little lambs, all the staff at St.Davids School, and the epic fellows teachers!!!
And the ultimate shoutout to the 13 people (plus Ashley) that I am so grateful I get to do life with for the coming months. There is something so special and unique about all 14 of these people. To express how special they are, here is a word for each fellow that I feel represents a unique part of each of them:
Joe is TENDER (obviously), Skip is SILLY, Celeste is BRAVE, Bailey is COMFORTING, Emma is DOPE, Tessa is DOWN-TO-EARTH, Bryan is KIND, Lola is BRIGHT, Ryan is THOUGHTFUL, Jenna is WISE, Josh is GENTLE, Elijah is HUMBLE, AG is MINDFUL, and Ashley is LOVELY! I am so thankful for each one of you and the vulnerability and excitement you all have been bringing to this table.
I RECOMMEND… these people, middle schoolers, going to class, “In the Garden” by Johnny Cash, John 15ing, and Tookies.
Peace & love & until next time, Chevy :)
