It really makes me wonder…

So lately I have been going through this whole deep thinking phase and it really has made me thankful for the life that I have chosen to lead. Sometimes I can get down or I can whine because maybe I had a bad day, but I’ve decided that its better to have a few bad days here and there than to not enjoy life at all. Basically, when I am in San Luis Obispo I am the happiest person that I could ever be because of the people around me. I’m so glad I made the choice to become involved at Cal Poly because I have met so many amazing people that have defined my college experience. I seriously think about advice that I would give to people coming into college if they asked me, and I always know that I would tell them to get as involved as they can. However, I don’t really like people who just sign up for things without truly caring about what they are doing. It is all about joining clubs and organizations that make you happy and have connections to your passions in life. If I hadn’t joined Poly Reps or started working at ASI, I don’t think I would know what I would plan to do for the rest of my life. Through these two organizations, I found my passion and luckily it was within my major too. I just recently found my passion for Human Resources and I know that sounds weird because everyone has a negative view of HR in the workplace, but honestly there are parts of HR that are really fun. Poly Reps is relative to HR because it similar to recruiting and that is what I love to do. There is also training and development within HR which is fun for me because I love to help people develop at work. I really am lucky that I have found a career that is perfect for me and my personality, and that I am getting experience in my chosen field before I graduate. A few weeks ago I was offered the Student Manager position in Human Resources, and that is big time because not only do I get more management experience, but I also get experience in HR with the convenience of an on-campus job. It just goes to show you that if you get involved and just follow your heart, you will be lead down the right path. I can’t imagine what college is like for the kids who come here just for school, because college is way more than that. I mean yeah school is important, but going to class is not what you remember about college. You remember the people you meet and the great memories that you made, and that is what is makes college worthwhile.
