Allow Me To Introduce Myself

My name is Lacey. I am a 22 year old college student who loves to read, write, paint, and bake. This year marks my fifth year at The University of Southern Mississippi where I am attempting to get my degree in public relations. 
This blog is a requirement for one of my classes called Reporting. In order to begin this blog I had to pick a topic on a little piece of paper out of a cup with many possible outcomes inside. I unfolded my topic with enthusiasm, imagining the great possibilities. To my dismay, the word “Employment” was what I found. 
“Employment? Really?” I had thought begrudgingly as my friends got topics like pop culture and entertainment.    
However, upon further pondering, I have found that my topic could lead me to write some interesting things. This is especially true because I have recently been employed for my first real job. 

My hopes for this blog are for my readers to get some insight on me and my employment journey, but also on employment issues and events from south Mississippi all the way up and beyond the borders of our country. Wish me luck.
