Meet Jamie, a timid first-year student in the Environmental Studies program at the University of Waterloo. Growing up in a small town, Jamie has always had a deep appreciation for nature but often finds herself feeling overwhelmed in new experiences. Frequently second-guessing her observations, Jamie hesitates to fully engage with the beauty around her, whether it’s spotting local wildlife or exploring campus landscaping, preferring to admire from a distance rather than diving in headfirst.
