When I was a little girl, my mother gifted me with a diary. Whenever I was angry or upset about something I would write down what I was feeling, I guess that’s how I learned to cope with my feelings and also how I developed a passion for writing.

Welcome to the blog! My name is Chantel and I am currently a sophomore at Central Michigan University.

I have always had an appreciation for writing and I think that is one of the main reasons I decided to major in Public Relations. I am excited for this class, because I have always wanted to create a blog and JRN 340 has given me the push I need to fulfill my desire. I am just an average student, trying to make it in this big world. I hope you will embark with me on this journey as we explore the many aspects of journalism.
