Where to Land

I am just beginning my career as a PR student and I feel that on this journey, I am going to have to change flights and take some detours on the way in order to make the best out of this thing we call life. Recently, I have been asked over and over what exactly what I want to do with public relations. And the best answer I could honestly come up with is EVERYTHING.

Just tarting this program I feel like I have so many opportunities and several different outlets that I can use to showcase my diverse talents in this field of work.  My mind is constantly filled with ideas and words that just need to be let out sometimes. So I have decided to use this blog to showcase some of my previous work. From news releases to storytelling samples, I am planning to just let it all out, for everyone to see. So go ahead and click on the "MY WORK" tab to see some of my writing samples!

Hope you all enjoy my mess of a mind! And hopefully you enjoy some of my work. Please contact me if you want any specific work!

Feelin' 22

I'm not 22. Not even close. But sometimes I feel like I get a little ahead of myself in every aspect of my life. There is so much that I want to do in this lifetime. And there is so much that I am doing just on a weekly basis that makes it seem as if I am in the crunch years of making a future for myself. Often I sit back and question how in the world I am going to get it done? SO, I came up with a solution to this problem...

DO IT ALL.


Just recently I was accepted into the Public Relations Program at Brigham Young University. A program recognized in PRWeek 2015 as one of top 5 programs in the nation. Yeah I know, SO COOL.

Anyways, after finding out this extremely exciting news, I had to stop myself because all I could think about was all the new opportunities and experiences that could take advantage of. So many doors just opened for me from one little acceptance letter. How sweet is that?

I am so excited for this new journey that I am about to embark on. The possibilities are endless and I cannot wait to take advantage of every little opportunity that I come across. I am so young and so enthusiastic about the world that is literally at the palm of my hands. I may not be 22 now, but it's so thrilling to think about all that I will accomplish by the time I finally am!

Cheers to all my young and innovative people!!

Gotta Stay High

You know that high you get after being home? That little taste of hope, yet not satisfying enough to reel you in completely. But once you start getting comfortable again, and back into your old routines, reality strikes you. You realize that have to go back to school. Back to the tedious work and long hours of higher education. UGH.

I took a little trip back to sunny San Diego this past weekend. To say it was a good trip is an understatement. Every time I go back home I question why I feel the desire to return to school again. Everything that I love is in San Diego. So why come back to school?  Heck, why come back to Utah?Why continue to receive this education when I don't even know what I want to do with it? I am at this point where I have no idea what I want to do for the rest of my life period. Yes, I have so many hopes and aspirations. But when I sit down and think about it all, I wonder if I really have it in me to accomplish any of it?

This week I have been completely wrapped in my own thoughts. So many questions about my life and my future. Where am I going to live next year? Can I afford my rent next month? Can I afford study abroad? I have to finish this scholarship before the deadline! I want that Free People dress SO BAD. Can I work that out in my budget? (Trust me I will find a way.)

With all this stuff going on, all these decisions I feel like I need to make, I honestly feel content. Yes, that high off of being home for the little time that I was helped. But I am trying to be high off of living, high off of all these experiences that I am having as I grow up. I am content with not knowing the future. With not knowing what exactly what I want to do at the moment. I mean who really knows at all? I am sure half of the students at my college couldn't tell you exactly what they are going to do in the future. That is why it is called the future!

It is so cliché for me to say that I am trying to live in the moment, but the truth is I really am. I know what it is like to not know if you have a future at all. To not know if you even have tomorrow. The future is a gift. And when I think about all the opportunities that I have been given to better my future, I understand that I really need to start taking advantage of it. Despite my doubts and insecurities, I am ready to take every day as it comes and cease every opportunity! And to start, I should probably get out of my bed, stop watching reruns of The Hills, and get high off this life that I have been given! Well...maybe after I finish season three... I mean c'mon its Friday!
