In a scant few days from now, I'll be moving to Pittsburgh from my college town, Huntington West Virginia. I've spent a long time here, but now that I've finally graduated in what felt like an eternity, I'll be on the bigger and better prospects. The reason I want to get out of here (WV) is that there are few (If any) public relations jobs I can do in WV.
I've simply outgrown this town. I still remember my first time getting off the Greyhound bus in Huntington, having no idea where anything was. I only had the slightest idea where Marshall University was: it was the only tall buildings in the area. From that day forward, I made friends, passed classes, joined a fraternity, fell in and out of relationships, and grew more into a mature man than I ever realized.
The impact of my times I've spent here will be apart of my character for the rest of my life. But, like any good book, that was just one heavily detailed chapter. Now, I'm ready to move to the next page; the next chapter of my life. Though I am sure there will be difficulties like anything else in life, I'm ready to face and overcome them.
I'll probably visit for homecoming, that is a must.
