So a lot of you probably don't really know what i have been up to these days besides my little posts here and there, which typically talk about food aka cupcakes or vacations....
While i am in my last semester at Utah Valley University i have had the chance to work with a non-profit organization. I am involved in my University's PR firm and I am the Account Executive for the Boys and Girls Club. Basically i manage my Pr Firm to complete tasks in a timely manner for the BGC (Boys and Girls Club). We just completed working on "Share the Harvest" an auction/dinner. We produced press releases, news articles, magazine articles and are conducting a trade show Dec 3rd to show off to potential donors. We have also helped with the receiving of donations, recognition, etc. Its been a great experience and a resume booster. I definitely want to continue working in non- profit after I graduate.
Now i graduate Dec 18Th, 2009. I will probably end up walking next April, they don't have a chance to walk in the Winter. Technically i was supposed to walk last April since i only had a couple classes left last spring. oh well. I feel like i have done a good job considering i have taken two years off all together from school due to a accident, out of state tuition, etc. I'm proud of myself and I would love to get a masters in the next few years. I'm looking into it. I'm going to enroll in some prep classes next year. Other than focusing on school , my plan is to move the end of December. Seattle is supposed to be my next stop but I'm kinda freaking out because that is a huge step.I think since i have been wanting to move there for 3 years and it is finally happening , I'm in shock. I just wish family was around that area. Nothing is set in stone right now and I'm actually okay with that. I almost feel i can go anywhere and that is very liberating.I'll have my life figured out soon.
To be continued............
