Guess what happened this week? I mean this is really big news. The anticipation of knowing is killing you, isn't it? I quit an organization. While I am always the first to stress the importance of finding an organization, sometimes you realize when something is not the right fit. I think I was overwhelmed and I was not putting my all into this particular organization because it was not the right fit. Do not let the chances of this happening to you get you discouraged.

BECOME ONE WITH THE ORGANIZATION
I know exactly what you mean by having to find the right fit in an organization. My first semester in the JB School (now MSC, I joined every club I could at the beginning of the year. This brilliant idea soon turned into an awful one, because I was too busy and didn't have a strong passion about all the orgs. Now that Ive been in the school a few years, Ive found my right fit with AdClub, even though there are so many great ones to join like PRSSA, Association of Women in Communications , Sports Media club, and Society of Professional Journalists. There's definitely something for everyone.
