Best of the Rest:
Proudest Accomplishment: On my last day of high school, I was leaving my favorite class when my teacher pulled me aside and thanked me for the difference I made in his ‘Comparative World Religions’ class by telling me that he hadn’t had another student as patient and open-minded as me in a long time. Those are probably the traits I am most proud of in myself, and though it’s not really an accomplishment, my teacher’s words really stuck with me.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years: According to my plan, I will have finished traveling to some of the most exciting places in the world, and will be building my dream house in California, Switzerland, or Australia, hopefully with someone I love by my side.
3 words to describe yourself: Neurotic, insomniac, optimistic.

Elizabeth loves anything coffee flavored, the Spanish language, and the perfect snowfall. Her weakness? Brunch. See more of her work at www.elizabethbacharach.wordpress.com 
Sarah Dubow graduated from school in 2013 and is a Digital Strategist at Marina Maher Communications in New York City. After serving as Campus Correspondent at Bucknell University, she is so excited to continue being a part of the Her Campus team! Besides traversing the city and trying to figure out what being a "real person" really means, Sarah loves long walks on the beach, sipping pina coladas, and getting caught in the rain (kidding!). Real favorites include traveling, writing, kickboxing, and making up ridiculous lyrics to the latest songs. She absolutely loves anything that involves cupcakes, butterflies, glitter, and anything Parisian and specializes in baking with far too much chocolate and obsessively watching shows bound to be cancelled after the first season. Though the long term path for this post-grad collegiette remains unclear, she's looking forward to all the new 20-something adventures that await her!
