Hi,
My name is Ellen Wikström. I started
here at UNL last spring as a freshman majoring in Advertising & Public
Relations. I am 21 years old and I am born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden. I graduated
Swedish high school (or gymnasium as it is called in Sweden) with a main focus
in economics. After studying a broad focus within economics, my interest for
marketing, advertising and PR sparked. My dream is to become an Advertising
manager at a big company one day.
My family consists of my father as a
governmental worker and my mother as a speech therapist. I am the oldest of
three siblings, my little sister is graduating high school next year, and my
little brother is a high school freshman basketball pro. I also have a family dog
that is named Nellie, she is a mutt of five different breeds.
I have a big passion for cooking. I
usually cook anything, but I mostly prefer to improvise and make up my own recipes.
Also I enjoy preforming and watching sports such as swimming, football, soccer, and
hockey.
This class is my first class counting
towards my major. My first year of college I focused on getting my Ace’s done,
so now I am very excited to get started taking courses of my interest. In this
course I hope I will get a greater insight of the media world, and get basic
knowledge that will help me in my other courses within my major. So far all my
expectations for this course has been fulfilled. This class makes me think that
I have made the right decision of majoring in Advertising and Public Relations.
