11-1

Entering what hopes to be my last year at Dallas Baptist University, I find myself in the same situation that most likely many others before me have felt, confusion. 4 years have gone by, and thousands of dollars have been spent, but will there be to show for it unless I make something of myself that reflects the time and effort spent earning a degree. If I graduate I will only be the 3rd in my family to do so, besides my older two brothers, who both got respectful jobs immediately after graduation. The pressure is now on. I will be the first of my family to graduate, and have the hardest time finding a job to support myself after college. Maybe my brothers’ good luck will rub off on me and Ill catch an entry level position at any network willing to offer me a position. It isn’t that I am setting low goals for myself, but more that I know what it takes to get the top, and unless you have an extraordinary connection you can’t get their without starting at the bottom. I really feel that broadcasting is a career that I will be great at, and would also love doing the work until I couldn’t work anymore. I don’t know what it is that excites me about it, maybe the fact that my job is telling the news, or the fact that everyday is a different day. No news is ever going to be the same, it is always changing. For me my personality is just like the news. It can change on a whim, and it can change without cause. I am not bipolar or anything, but I have very a unique personality that can either be humorous enough to be the life of the party, or responsible enough to lead my team to a successful task. Consider this autobiography to almost be a journal to me, as I release all the emotions I feel entering the rest of my life.
