The speaker today was actually the best one we have had. She was only a few years older than us and knew the kind of information that we would want to know and needed to know. With just graduating and already having a job that she is really into, make me feel a lot better about life after graduation and I hope I am as lucky.
I really found it interesting that she learned graphic design at her internship and then was able to use that at her new job, when she graduated with a completely different major. Also, because I had initially planned on doing a concentration on graphic design because I really wanted to do some sort of advertising for a company of a magazine. She also really made me want to go on the New York trip, which I probably will go on next Spring, because it's a good way to meet contacts and get your foot in the door, an opportunity that is a lot harder living in North Carolina.
I also really liked how she showed us end uses of some of the fabrics from her job. And how she made curtains, aprons and bags from fabric she got for free at her job. And she has to be doing well because the South Park and Balentine areas of Charlotte are really upscale and the cost of living there is high. It just shows that the possibilities are endless.
