Getting LinkedIn!

Greetings, followers! This week has been very fast paced, but of course I was able to squeeze some time in to update my blog. Graduation is fast approaching and my classes are all moving forward at a very fast pace, so I have been struggling to find time to try and plan out what my future after graduation will hold.

Much of my free time lately has been spent reviewing groups on LinkedIn and trying to gain some knowledge about the workplace I am stepping into. Something that I have read a lot about and feel is important to understand is how to Work in Multi-Generational Workplaces. There is a lot to understand about the other generations that are going to be present in the workplace when we graduate.

Another LinkedIn group that I found to be interesting and full of potential is the Plymouth State University Sales Program Group. This page is a great place for any individuals that are currently enrolled in the sales program to converse. There is a lot of information available for people interested in learning more as well.

The future is coming fast and I am excited to take the next step after finishing my Bachelor's Degree!

I ask you, my followers, what is it that you have done to prepare for the future?

What a week it has been! Midterm studying and great weather have made for little free time. While studying for a midterm on Tuesday afternoon, this cat was at my window watching over me. AN unexpected and welcome surprise made for a nice reason for a study break.

Spring break starts for me in approximately 4 hours and I couldn't be happier. I hope any and all of my readers are vacationing somewhere fun over their break. I am unfortunately going to be working and staying at home, but I would love to know what everyone is up to.

Taking you into spring break is a video I shot about a pretend spring break party for a class. This is as close to a good time that I will be having next week!

 Leave a comment if you're doing anything fun over break!

The past week has been very challenging. I had a lot of papers to work on, including a particularly long one for my Professional Employment course. I spent a lot of time reading for other courses and working with a group for a project in another course. I have a few projects that I am currently juggling for various courses and I am excited to complete them so I can start to focus more on other aspects of life.

This weekend I am going home for the first time this semester. My family is starting to cook maple syrup at our sap house, so we have a celebration every year. The event is not particularly important to me, but I know that my family is proud of how far they have come. Supporting those who support me is something I firmly believe in, so I will make the experience enjoyable.
Thanks for reading! Let me know what you know about maple syrup and if you have ever tapped any trees!

Welcome all to my blog. The topic that I will be focusing on is my own experiences with college and the classes that I am taking. I will be updating weekly regarding classes I am currently taking and schoolwork I am working on. The topic is not the most interesting, but it is difficult to find something worth writing about on a weekly basis that is ever changing. The only subject that I could settle on was my own life, which is often hectic and rarely the same.
Check back for updates about my life! This week, the largest project I have worked on would be this blog. I spent a lot of time deciding on a topic and figuring out how to set this blog up properly. I look forward to updating this with more information about my life in the future.
