As of today, I am one week and two days old. That is, if life really does begin after college!
Last Saturday was the best day of my life, so far. Surrounded by my loving family and close friends, I took the long, momentous walk down the aisle and received a blank folder. To be fair, it did have the University of Oregon's name printed on the front. But as we have all heard many times, we must not judge a folder by its cover. Anyway, it was not the folder that I was excited about, it was the diploma that I have been checking my mailbox for every day since.
Seriously though, everyone who knows me knows what a thrilling occasion it was for me. After five long years, working nights as a delivery driver and nearly killing myself with homework, I finally achieved a much-anticipated graduation!
Now, as a young public relations professional, I felt that it was the perfect time to begin my first, real professional blog. So here it is! It is going to be a way for my family and friends to find out what it is that I do all day at work. I will write about things I'm doing, things I'm learning, and tips for other young professionals. My promise to you, dear reader, is to post a new blog every Tuesday, and more often as time allows. This blog is a reflection of me and my interests, and I will be ultimately flattered if you come back and visit me often!
Liz, congratulations on your graduation! All of that hard work has paid off, and your work ethic will continue to take you to exciting places.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to follow you on your blog.
Congratulations in your graduation Liz! You have inspired me and so many others to achieve greatness in our lives and professional world. I am so very very proud of you babygirl. Good luck in all of your endeavors, I hope to be there for some of them ;)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the blog. All I can say is that you should check your diploma carefully, mine had a spelling error on it. It wasn't something reasonable like my name being spelled wrong, it said that I had been "admittted". They sent a replacement, but I know which one I'd put on my wall if I was so inclined.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the advice. I surely will check the spelling...when it actually arrives! They seem to be taking their sweet time sending it to me. I love your blog by the way! Your writing style is very entertaining, and educational. I love traveling, so you have won an avid reader.
