Be Yourslef

Hello my wonderful followers. I was supposed to write on Friday but I had a horrible dose of writer's block. For that I deeply apologize. Something came to me just now and I knew I had to share it with you. Last night, I had to attend a function with my husband that was for his work. It was a networking group. The interesting thing is that three hours before the function, I didn't feel well at all and didn't want to go. I forced myself to get up and dressed as I didn't want to look frumpy. We headed out to Civita's on Corydon Avenue. I didn't know what to expect from the evening. I went without expectations.

When I arrived there I sat beside a very outgoing individual. The ironic thing is that when we exchanged names, she said she had heard my name before. I delved deeper into that because I have never known another Anrea before. Have you? If you have, please tell me about it!

I am digressing. The individual I sat beside said she had heard my name before and asked if I was in the Creative Communications program at Red River and I said yes. The funny thing was, so was she. Shs happened to be in second year. It was so funny. I ended up having a great eveing and was able to understand a few more things about the course I am in. It ended up being a great evening. I have an assignment due on Monday that is an important one. She even provided me with insight for that as well.

So, I guess I really wanted to reinforce the need to be yourself at networking functions and push yourself if you don't want to go. You never know what you will be missing out on. I even had some great laughs too!

Thanks for listening!
