New year, new challenges

Hello dear readers of my  blog!

My name is Viivi and I'm 23-year old business student from Laurea University of Applied Sciences. Along with my studies I work in a clothes shop and dream of an internship among marketing and sales. In particular, sales have always interested me very much, and I believe that my work will always be among sales one way or another. At least I hope so.
In this blog I will update mainly things that I learn on digital marketing course , as well as my own thoughts on digital marketing and its development.

For me this year has begun very busy and rushing in, and I knew in advance that it would give me a lot of new experiences and things I've never before been up to. For example as a tutor student, I have got an opportunity to meet and get to know a huge number of new people from both Finland and abroad all over the world. Starting to blog  is also something completely new for me. I have read a lot of different kind of lifestyle and fashion blogs during the youth of my life, but never written any blog myself. Sometimes I've thought about it a little fleeting moment, and envisioned its appearance, themes and pictures of my posts. Due to time constraints, however, I have always buried my dream somewhere far into the future.

But then, this week, my teacher Anna Ikonen told us that we all need to set up a blog. I was excited and terrified at the same time. Terrified, because the time is still my biggest problem of all, and really excited because now someone has given me a permission to do what I have dreamed of for so long: spend time just to write up my thoughts and feelings. Even though the topic of the blog is quite limited this time, I think I will learn and benefit from this so much. During the course we work in groups with both exchange students and Finnish students. Including me there are six Finnish second year students and one exchange student from Netherlands in my group. This week was just to orientation and get to know each others and our three wonderful digital coaches.

Yet I am not entirely sure what will happen and what we're actually going to do, but I'm really looking forward to it. Maybe the next week will show us. In terms of learning my goals are high and I do my best to keep you readers up to date of all the interesting aspects and happenings during the course.

You'll hear from me within a week again!
