The Beginning, All over Again

About the blog
The premise of this blog stems from a school assignment. The task of the assignment is to create a blog about our lives as students that can be used to create and direct traffic, so that the data returned from  traffic can be analyzed using Google Analytics. Real blog, real data, real experience, real fun (most of the times) - good assignment, eh?

About the blog content:
Throughout this blog I plan on writing about my current experiences as a Sheridan Advertising Post-grad student in contrast to my experiences as an undergrad at the University of Guelph. In postings I will either provide a contrast or similarities of the two. I will refer to my current experiences as my present life (the after life, see what I did there?) and my experience of my undergrad as my former life.

Why compare the two? 

Because. Because, because, because! Since my graduating the University of Guelph I've been fortunate enough to experience office life. To summarize my experiences, they were all very different in ways that affected my personal being. From all of them, whether enjoyable or not I have learned so much: who I want to be , who I don't want to be, what I don't want to do and a little more of what I want to do, all from the people I've been surrounded with. With each environment I learned and I changed sometimes so dramatically that I feel almost reborn (hence the afterlife theme).

My promise to you

To whom it may concern,

I promise to try to write compelling stories which have a point. I promise to try to never waste your time and always make you smile. I promise to hold your hands when they are cold and say good morning - every morning.

By now I hope you will have gotten a taste of my personality (often sarcastic and a little bit all over the place). If you enjoy what you've read I hope to interact with you via comments or email in my future postings.

So now I'll leave you with the quote that inspired me to write about my experiences in such a bizarre manner. Or rather a sentence that somewhat replicates what I've read that inspired me.

" ... we keep growing out of ourselves and into ourselves" 

It really makes you think, doesn't it? Thank you Oprah.
