I've always been a fairly good writer. English classes always came easy to me and writing reports and essays were always a cinch. I knew that the talent for writing has always been there. I haven't really, yet, tapped into my creativity in writing though. I know it's there, but honestly, I have always lived down my talents and potentials. I'm not as proactive and ambitious as I should be, and laziness and idleness are my downfalls.
When I first began college, I had my mind set on getting my nursing degree because it was safe. And though I always sucked at science and knew school would be tough, I'd be making bank by the end of it. I soon found out that that wasn't a good enough reason to stick with it. I needed to go after something I was interested in, something I was good at, something I was passionate about. I have since changed my major to Communications with an emphasis on Public Relations with hopes of having a career in Journalism. I figure that if this is something that I really want to do, I need to start honing my skills and practicing my craft. I am very passionate about sports - though being one of the least athletic people I know and having little to no experience playing organized sports - and have dreams of being a sports journalist.
I know I have my own unique beliefs and opinions and I know I have a well of creativity yet to be tapped. I guess this blog is my small step towards being the writer I want to be. =)
