Intro

First off I want to introduce myself; my name is Lauren, I’m a junior at Texas State University in San Marcos, TX. A little about me is that I am from San Antonio, TX (not too far from San Marcos), I’m majoring in Mass Communications Public Relations with a minor in Studies of Popular Culture, and I love adventures. Anything from taking exploring my cities and new hangout spots to long road trips is a day well spent to me. I love to explore new things. My blog will cover things like good places to eat, hangout spots, what goes on during my day, and things to do in San Marcos.

I chose the topic “College Life” because well I’m in college and to me, I’ve found that theres a lot more to the stereotypical college life. I want to be able share and show what actually goes on, at least at Texas State. I plan on sharing things that will show how amazing college is and even if it doesn’t have to do with college itself. To me, college is more than always being in the library studying (although that is very important) or staying home with friends watching Netflix. Being on your own away from home is a refreshing experience that teaches you lots of things and gives you an opportunity to find new interests and experiences.

My target audience for this website is incoming college students or even transfer students interesting in coming to Texas State. I believe it will help give a feel to what college is actually like and be able to give you insight to what there is to do, where to eat, and where to go in San Marcos. I hope it will also give students encouragement to want to come here or even any college in general. I want it to show that college is not as scary or intimidating as it’s made out to be our whole lives prior to it. My twitter account will have links to blog posts and other shorter posts.
