As a strategic communications student in her ultimate semester, it’s only fitting that I’m taking all communications classes. Did I mention they are all in English? It’s a wonderful thing.
Spending every day of the week working on public relations tactics and message strategies gives me a little bit of a taste of what I hope to be doing as I jump into the working world. Granted it’s a tad different when you work for a boss and a paycheck as opposed to a professor for a grade. I’m pretty sure the only place you can cash in grades is at Chuck-E-Cheese. It didn’t work at Nordstrom.
One aspect of my Strategic Message Designs Class is to blog regularly. Luckily I already have things set up here and could practice last semester. Unfortunately, the content will be slightly less worldly. The emphasis is on public relations and the world of media and communications. The goal: don’t let the blog get boring. Challenge accepted!
I’m hoping to have some new and exciting updates about life as a comm student on a quest for work. This job search may not be in a foreign place, but trust me when I say it shall be an adventure.
This so-called “jump” into the working world will likely be just as far out of my comfort zone as Spain. It’s kind of like the step off of a plane with the hesitation that my parachute might not open. Let’s hope it doesn’t end in a splat on concrete.
My life is so much richer because I have met you… and your blog. Im excited to still get a daily dose of Katie’s sass. Keep ’em coming – ill be reading! Miss you and hope all is well stateside 🙂
