PR-an endless chase for glory!!

When i first came to college i planned on going to pharmacy school and really had no idea what PR was. The truth is that my ex girlfriend told me about this feild and it interested me. I knew that pharmacy wasnt for me and i was just doing it because the pay was amazing and worth the effort. But college isnt a means to an end for me so i wanted to live these next few years to the fullest. I figured that if i get into communcations and focus on PR i can eventually achieve my childhood dream o working in california as an agent or publcist. The problem was that everyone i knew had no idea wat PR was and i they did they figured it was just another office job where you sit in a cublicle all day dealing with clients needs. Personally i dont want to work in one company my entire life and dealing with clients on a consistent basis. PR leaves so much room to avoid letting your life turn into a routine. Sure i hate the fact that i havea  long ladder to climb in order to get where i want to be. I also cant stand to work with people richer then me buts that a personal ego issue. But id rather be bouncing around in the communications world looking fo the next big opportunity then spending 4 more years in school to get a job that i dont even like. I see PR as a process of evolving oneself. I may not be the best writer yet but i will be. I have great people skills but have plenty of room to develop them once i start getting facetime with clients and the media. Once ive developed my skills i can find a position in the communication world that gives me the glory ive been searching for. ONce ive found that position there no stopping yet. Have keep evolving as technology, media, and society evolves. The point im trying to make is that PR or communications in general is the deepest experience pool in terms of career i can think of. You never know what youll be doing next year and thats what i love.
