What's Next

This semester has been a whirlwind. It has flown by so fast. I have taken quite a few communication courses previously, so much of this was repeat for me. Being exposed to the material multiple times is always useful though. With each communication course I grow a little more each time. I learn more about myself and the people I interact with on a daily basis. I always learn more effective ways of communicating with others. I am usually really blunt and straightforward which can be too much for people sometimes. I come off too strong and rude, so I have learned to phrase my comments more appropriately. I have also applied listening skills I have learned. When friends ask me for advice I make sure I ask plenty of questions about the situation before giving my advice. I have one year left and then I graduate spring of 2013. After that I plan to move back to San Diego. I will probably start looking for jobs in the event coordinating field and look into grad school. I haven't decided on graduate school 100% yet, so I think I will take some time figure out what exactly I want to do.

  1. What's great about COMM studies is that we can apply it now in our everyday lives. It's good to know what your tendencies are and your willingness to change.
