I wanted to write today and say somethings that have been on my mind since I have now been up here in Rexburg for about year and I have loved every second of it! I must say though I was very confused that I was going back to school. I got my associates at LDS Business College (LDSBC) in Social Media Marketing and after the Disney College Program I was set on working at an ad agency and not going back to school. However, things changed and I followed through with promptings I have received and next thing I knew I was filling out an application to attend Brigham Young University- Idaho.
I never knew I wanted to attend a Church Educated School (CES). Since I am LDS or Mormon it was bound that I would attend one of the Church owned schools. However, I was totally against it and I attended Utah Valley University and then I went on a mission for my church and I came back and I fell in love with the CES Schools. LDSBC taught me who I was after my mission and helped guide a path for me.
This past year has been a whirl wind of emotions and never stopping. Always something to do and you never get bored. I have met some amazing friends and I am forever grateful for them. You will truly make the best friends at BYU-Idaho. I honestly thought I would say this but BYUI is the best decision I have ever made.
When picking a college to go to trust your gut. Go with your first extinct and run with it. You will never regret it. I most certainly do not regret this decision. The teachers are amazing. I am learning so much more about who I am and who I am as a Advertiser and a Communication major. I didn't really know what I wanted to do with my social media degree but now I know exactly what I want to do and where I want to end up. I thought I wanted to work for the mouse again and be a Disney Cast Member but I think I have other plans in store for me that doesn't include that coveted name tag.
I hope that when you pick your college and start sending out applications you will list all your pros and cons and listen to your heart and follow through with it. You will not regret your choice!
