I adore school– really I’m serious! I am so high-strung and test day stresses me out to the point of being physically ill, but I love it. I feel so accomplished when I succeed and so motivated when I don’t quite succeed. It’s been this way for as long as I can remember. For a long time, I thought it should be this way for everyone. I mean isn’t going to  college the only logical thing to do after high school? Oh contraire mon ami!

I had a rude awakening when I finished my Bachelor’s in Marketing, got a job in the field, and realized that only a special kind of person finds fulfillment in the business world. That person is not me. I spent four years and my parent’s pretty pennies only to go back to the drawing board; I’m using my own pretty pennies this time.

Recently I realized that college is not for everyone and that Education is whatever you make of it. Real world education–Full Sail University’s motto which is surprisingly contradictory– is even more important than a college education. You’re dead in the water if  you’re clueless in the real world!

I’m starting this blog to share what I learned during my failed career in Marketing what I will learn  in my journey through graduate school, the importance of education (in it’s academic and real world forms) and to learn from your experiences.

Now tell me…what do you want to read, what do you want to see and what do you know that you think the rest of the world should know too?
