Well, I've actually been back for a bit now. I'm just going to throw up the letter that I sent out to families and friends of mine, so you get the scoop... then I'll update what has happened since then.
...a chapter in my life is coming to an end.
The chapter in my life that is coming to a close is called College. To be more specific I am graduating from Geneva College with a B.A. in Communications.
Communications, first of all, is a degree that deals with the venues of media like public relations, film, television, advertising, and the arts. I have learned numerous things about the field of Communications and it’s many venues.
During my time in college I was able to acquire a job. Three and a half years of my college career I had a web developing internship and some semesters I also worked with the Public and Alumni relations departments. I also did a lot of free lance web development and design work for friends and acquaintances.
Also during my time in college I was involved in rugby, ISO (International Student Organization), Spanish club, GCSU (Geneva College Student Union), AOA (Acting on Aids), and IJM (International Justice Mission). A lot of these developed from my love of being involved, wanting to be a part of aiding problems in this world, and my desire to work along side people.
Because of these things I have been able to work in the local community here in Beaver Falls and the community abroad. In my school I have done community service, raised awareness on world issues, and made changes within my school. Some of my proudest moments in college were in the knowledge that I gained. I was blessed to study and visit Brazil, Puerto Rico and London. In my final semester I was able to study abroad for four months in Costa Rica. In that semester I also went to Nicaragua and Cuba.
...but I have another chapter to start.
These experiences have made me who I am. I look forward to see where my life is heading. With that said I really have no idea what I am going to do because I am interested in so many things.
I am looking to use my Communications skills and I would also love to continue working on the skills I have obtained in organization and international things. I will continue to teach myself Spanish and reading about the things in this world so that I can become more aware.
I would love to hear from you and see what is going on in your life. Please keep me in your prayers and don’t hesitate to contact me if you would like to hear more about what is going on in my life.
May God bless you.
Much love.
-Janet
Okay, now since I have sent this letter how... here's what happened. I got a job at the Hampton Inn in Cranberry where my brother is a manager. My last day here will be on August first. I will go to the beach for awhile. Then I will pack my belongings. On August 24th I will begin a trek out west. I am moving to Arizona. I'm still looking for work. I have a couple good friends going with me and my beloved dog. I'm really excited... but I still need a job.
Blessings,
Janet
