My name is Misty, and I am currently a senior majoring in General Communication. I chose this major due to several factors. As I started my collegiate career, my original major was nursing. However, after an introductory journalism class, I found that my true passion didn't lie in the sciences; it was writing. I enjoyed being able to tell people's stories and communicating through both the written and spoken word. Secondly, I realized that communications is a very broad major, one in which I can work with in a variety of organizations, as well as giving me a lot of career flexibility.
I'm exactly sure where I see myself in 5 years. My vision of my post-college life literally changes daily, and ranges from attending graduate school to getting a second BA degree. At this moment, I would like to work in health communication, working in a health care facility doing public and community relations work.
One of the most important things I've learned in college is to do what makes you happy. I can't always cater to other people's needs, nor can I always do what others want-and expect-me to. I have to be happy with myself and where I'm at in life before I help others achieve the same.
Some of my passions include spending time with family and friends, music, and art and photography. Because I don't consider myself an exceptionally talented artist, I prefer to view and learn about art. I also enjoy reading, shopping, and sports (hockey, basketball, and baseball mostly).
