#20 - "Quiet Storm"
Lysandra Mitchell Hardaway
Line Name (s) and how you got them:
I was given the name "Quiet Storm" because I was quiet on line. Big Sister Gloria gave me the name "Player Player" because I drove a Dynasty while online and she said it looked like Jerome from Martin.
What's your favorite memory online?
The memory that stands out was Hell Week and we all stayed in that one bedroom apartment. I can remember wearing my pager in my bra waiting for my then boyfriend and now husband to send me my wake up page. I would get up, go home, fix my hair and go do my student teaching. At the end of the school day I would go back home, take a nap, make sure my hair was not neat, get Sabrina and head to the Yard. That was my routine for Hell Week.
Here's where you BRAG about yourself.
Since graduating from Morris Brown I have earned two other degrees in education. During my 15 plus years of teaching I was selected teacher of the year. I've had so many ideas about doing my own thing in education as a trainer. Those ideas are still in my head. At my new school a parent came and asked me if I would tutor her child. So now I'm getting ready to start tutoring and build on that.
Knowing what you know now, what advice would you give your 1995 self?
I would tell my 1995 don't try to pledge and student teach at the same time.
What's the one thing every woman should have ...and what's the one thing every Delta woman should have?
Every woman and every Delta woman should have a friend that she can talk to and not be judged.
Name one thing on your bucket-list that you will complete during our 20th Anniversary year? Related to Delta or not.
Two places on my bucket list I would like to visit is New York and Hawaii.
What line sister (s) do you wish you would have gotten to know better during our process?
I would have liked to get to know Donetha Ball better.
Does your line name still fit? If not, what name would you give yourself today?
Yes, my line name still fits today. I am quiet and laid back.
