Name: Barbara Parsons
Major: Communication Studies
Graduating Class: May 2017
Hometown: Utica, NY
—————————————————————————————
HC: Where do you see yourself in 10 years from now?
BP: Hopefully have a fun and steady job; I want to be involved somewhat in team management and be a boss of some sort. I’ll be thirty so hopefully Zac Efron will be my husband by then…but time will only tell.
HC: What is something you aspire for?
BP: I want to travel more. After graduation I’m going to travel around Europe for a while and explore. I hope my future career has lots of traveling involved. I’d honestly consider moving out of the country if it meant I get to explore the world more.
HC: What are you going to miss most of Oneonta after graduation?
BP: My friends and teammates, the Communication department, and declining dollars. I can’t just go to Jazzman’s for tea or coffee anymore, I’m now going to have to pay real money for that. #Adulting
HC: What are you planning to do after college?
BP: I’m attending SUNY Oswego in the fall to pursue my Master’s degree in Strategic Communication. I’m very excited, plus I’m going to have my own apartment. I love interior design, so I’m already planning what it’s going to look like. Hopefully I can land a job while I’m at school, because I’ll have to pay for coffee and rent somehow.
HC: If you could have any animal as a pet, which would you choose?
BP: A tea cup piglet. I would love to have a pig running around my apartment like Brittany Murphy has in “Uptown Girls.”
HC: Quote you live by?
BP: “Live Life Fearlessly” Basically it’s okay to have fears, but you can’t let them control you or your destiny.
That’s Barbara! Thanks for taking the time to meet her.
