So, this is kind of interesting.

I never really blogged before. Creative Writing, yes (my campus has an amazing writing club), but never blogging.

So, what does a Digital Media student on a Christian campus have to offer?

Hopefully a lot. I come from the rural areas of, well, lets call it farming central (not going to make it easier to find out who or where I live). When I attended the local school, I did not exactly know how big the world was, and it began to sink in after high school. It was once when I began to attend college that I began to experience and see more than if I just stayed behind in rural farming central.

For those who feel like their situation will forever define who they are and where they are going to go because college is not for them: don't believe that. We all have different gifts and abilities. However, we all have a tendency to believe that we need a college degree in order to be able to be successful. Please let my voice be the one to echo through the noise: you do not always need a college degree in order to be successful. There are positions that we all desperately need, such as electrician, plumbing, and the whatnot, that if we were to send everyone to college, then those jobs would go away. We NEED people to work in those industries. There is so much that you can do that, if our mindsets would change about everyone going to college, then we would be able to encourage you to face those goals.

For those of you in college: you have the opportunity to learn and grow in ways that you never even imagined. I please with you to not squander those opportunities. Make the most of the opportunities you have been called to or given by the Creator.

Either way, I hope that this account helps you see things differently in some way, shape, and form!
