Now that I am a junior, I’m taking more challenging, upper division classes. I have late-night classes, extensive readings every night, and time-consuming group projects that actually last the whole quarter.

Classes like small group communication and intercultural communication are no joke. Thankfully, this week has been a bit more relaxed and I can take a break and breathe. Overall, I have a different course load compared to, say, psychology majors or future nurses, who have clinicals on top of classwork, but studying communication is challenging in its own way.

Another change in my schedule this quarter is that I joined the Campus Chronicle. I am not “that person” who gets involved in on-campus organizations, so my joining a student activity may surprise some. Being a part of the Campus Chronicle gives me an opportunity to actually do something with my life, which is good because, at this point in time, I am still trying to figure out what it is I want to do after graduation. I think working on the Chronicle can lead me toward a clearer picture. I am still new on the staff, so there is an adjustment period, but so far I am enjoying it.

I am about halfway done here at PUC. Although I am still unsure about what I want to do, I’m not too worried. I know God has a plan for me. I just have to be willing and open to what he has in store.
