I'm employed!

Today was my first official day at my new job! I've kind of known I would be landing this job for the last months but I really wanted to keep it on the down-low in case something fell through.

I was hired in as a New Media Specialist and currently the company is without a formal communications department so I'll be on my own for a little bit. To start off, I'll be working in recruiting to help them develop an agressive online recruiting campaign. After that, I'm mainly going to be working on internal communications. The company I work for has branches in over 30 countries so internal communications will prove to be pretty difficult! But I am up to the challenge!

First Impression of Online Classes

This is my first real week of grad school classes at Wayne State and they're all online!  I'm really excited to dive head first into my classes but everyone keeps telling me how difficult online classes are.  After my face-to-face introduction class, I'm pretty sure online classes will be a piece of cake.

But here are some of my reservations:

  • I'm a procrastinator, so I'll just keep putting everything off.
  • My love for multitasking my interrupt my studying/homework.
  • If I'm not forced to actually go to class (by attendance policy) will I actually read/listen to the online lectures?
  • If I ever get a "real" job, I won't be able to make time for my work.

But so far so good... I've read my first reading assignment and I'm getting started on writing the article that is due at the end of next week!
