Now that I am finally home from the conference there is so much to reflect on. The experience that I was fortunate enough to have had is remarkable and one that I won’t soon forget. The amount of knowledge that i have acquired over the last week is incredible. I have never felt so sure and prepared for my future. All of the speakers at the conference gave an important piece of advice that I will use as I move forward in my life. That one key piece of information is to tell my story. I’m not quite sure what my story is yet and it is something that I must figure out soon, but I do know that the Washington and Journalism Media Conference has helped me and made an impact on my story.
The people that i have met while at the conference changed my life. They were all so welcoming and warm, the staff and students alike. But more then that i met people that had the same passion and drive that I have myself for journalism. I broke out of my shell in ways that I have never done before and most importantly I had an amazing time doing it all. I made connections and relationships that will last in the future and bring countless benefits. I can’t begin to say how thankful I am to have had this opportunity and plan to blog more about as time goes on . I will continue to relfect and see how this journey will help me in the future. I miss everyone that I have met so much already and hope to see you all soon.
This isn’t a goodbye its just a , see ya for now.
