Those opportunities don't come as easily once you finish school. It's harder to get into my career of choice (business and accounting) even though I finished grad school. Good luck on learning html--I'm sure you'll learn in no time!<br /><br /><a href="http://plasticotterblog.blogspot.com/2015/07/seo-for-local-business-3-common-digital.html" rel="nofollow">Jennefer Neely @ Plastic Otter</a>Jennefer Neelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05025214562408334304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918559434689983550.post-3804869873114518722015-08-20T18:51:57.897-04:002015-08-20T18:51:57.897-04:00One of my favorite things about you is that you ha...One of my favorite things about you is that you have so much going on outside of your blog! Our careers aren't too crazy different-- I worked in event planning for four years, and now I am a marketing analyst for Nordstrom. I taught myself to code for my job, so I love that you're working on writing HTML. Learning new skills is empowering! <br /><br />Helen | A Cultured Pearl<br />www.aculturedpearl.comHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18228860947382845518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918559434689983550.post-29583274650774651192015-08-19T23:43:19.560-04:002015-08-19T23:43:19.560-04:00This was a great read!

I knew you went to JMU, but I had no idea you were a public relations major and a writing minor! I'm a rising senior at JMU and majoring/minoring in the same. I bet you had Hickerson at one point or another! ;) I even started out in the business school, but switched after a year and a half. I couldn't stand accounting or econ either! Again, great post and I'm so glad you shared a little about your work life. <br /><br />Lauren | A Lil' Style<br />www.alilstyleblog.com Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06355058893975398618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918559434689983550.post-59750024660081196342015-08-19T23:24:57.516-04:002015-08-19T23:24:57.516-04:00I really, really enjoyed reading this post!

I'm now considering something similar, by going to grad school for marketing/PR, as I think it allows you to be much more creative!<br /><br />Lauren<br />http://oliverstwistblog.comLaurenhttp://oliverstwistblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918559434689983550.post-44091003656702286252015-08-19T18:24:15.795-04:002015-08-19T18:24:15.795-04:00Hey Sydney,

It takes you through all the steps and you can quit at any time and it will save your place in the lesson. It is also 100% free! I thought I should share because I think it has a nice set up to be able to do whenever you're free! Enjoy! Hope that helps!Melinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918559434689983550.post-24674439930343339752015-08-19T15:43:25.047-04:002015-08-19T15:43:25.047-04:00Great post!

I'm starting to realize what I do and do not like, and what I could see myself doing after graduation. I would love to create content for a brand's social media, or really anything where I can utilize my creativity!<br /><br />-Laura<br />www.stylewithaltitude1922.blogspot.comLaura Hodenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02166985214469776375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918559434689983550.post-57649706909817276072015-08-19T10:35:05.341-04:002015-08-19T10:35:05.341-04:00This post is so great.
