Musings of a PR student

Summer Vacation - something that I have not truly gotten to enjoy in years. I start summer school in a month, but until then I have absolutely nothing scheduled. I am a recently laid off PR student who graduates in December - and I have no idea what to do with my time. I am starting to look into freelance work and maybe an agency or two that I could apply at, but until then, for the first time in awhile, I am just a normal twenty-something.

The reason that this is such a big deal, as most would not consider it to be so, is that I was really "comfortable" in my lifestyle. I love school (shocking, I know), I loved my job, and I loved where I was heading. I guess it was a necessary reality check going into my final semester at school that you never really have everything figured out. Though I am sad to leave agency life behind me for at least the time being, I realize that it happened and I must move on. Everything happens for a reason, even though it may not always be the reason we want it to be. I recently was given a bit of advice that really struck something in me, and that is that there is only one thing you can be sure about life, and that is that it goes on.

And that is what I am doing at this juncture, I am going on with life in the best way that I know how. So, while I am left at a crossroads, I know only that I will move forward, never back. I have come a long way in my time at Boise State University; I found passion, hope, and a lust for life. I will not lose these things, I will embrace them. Here is once again, to the next step - wherever it may take me.

Another excuse as to why I am a horrible blogger

Once again I find myself trying to explain why it has been so long since I have updated. I keep asking myself why I do not just make the time to update, as I have so many ideas for posts that I would like to share with you.

For the first time in my life, I can legitimately say that I have not a minute of free time, and when I do, I feel like doing nothing except kicking back on the couch and playing some Call of Duty. As the semester draws closer to a close, I can feel myself preparing for a greater change than I am ready for. My long semesters of 19 credits and working are about over. I am 14 credits away from a degree, and the key to move past this time and into the next phase of my life.

Who knows what lies upon the horizon? So many decisions to be made over the next 8 months, and all will be monumental. The only comparison I have was the last semester of High School. Things seemed like they would change so much, and they did, but in the most amazing ways that I could never have imagined. Here is to the next step -- may it bring as much amazing change and positive influence on my life as the previous steps have.

Legitimate updates to follow - until then... enjoy the ride my friends ;)
