Dave Blanks:

Hey friends, on this Dave by the Bell, I'm going to talk to seniors who are graduating and ask them what the heck they got planned next. Stick around, won't you?

Jenna Michalski:

I'm Jenna Michalski.

Dave Blanks:

You're graduating, correct?

Jenna Michalski:

Yes.

Dave Blanks:

Congratulations.

Jenna Michalski:

Thank you.

Dave Blanks:

What have you been studying here at Appalachian State?

Jenna Michalski:

Commercial Photography Minor in English.

Dave Blanks:

Cool. So what do you plan to do with that? Be very creative, I would assume.

Jenna Michalski:

I'm trying to get paired with a video production company.

Dave Blanks:

Cool.

Jenna Michalski:

Either start off as an editor or some sort of an assistant.

Dave Blanks:

What are you doing on campus?

Jenna Michalski:

I have a final in about 30 minutes.

Dave Blanks:

Oh, snap. Are you ready for it?

Jenna Michalski:

Yeah, it's my last one so it's getting real.

Dave Blanks:

Is it sad?

Jenna Michalski:

A little bit.

Dave Blanks:

Yeah, you liked App?

Jenna Michalski:

Yeah, I did.

Dave Blanks:

You could still be here. You could study more.

Jenna Michalski:

I'm good on that.

Dave Blanks:

All right. Well, you can at least come back and visit?

Jenna Michalski:

Yes, absolutely.

Dave Blanks:

Okay, please do that. All right. What about girl with a dog? Do you think she's a senior? Hey, excuse me. Are you a senior graduating?

Girl with a dog:

No.

Dave Blanks:

Do you have a dog? Hello, dog. Oh, my gosh. What a nice puppy you have. Well, have a good day.

Girl with a dog:

Thank you.

Dave Blanks:

All right, bye. That was a friendly dog. Anyway, still heading down toward the sign Founders Plaza. I see some people. There are people getting pictures over here. I knew it. You look like you're graduating.

Val Moscoso:

I am.

Dave Blanks:

All right, cool. What's your name?

Val Moscoso:

Well, I'm Val Moscoso. I'm graduating with Exercise Science and a minor in Psychology. I'm taking a gap year, but I will go into occupational therapy school.

Dave Blanks:

So what are you doing with your gap year?

Val Moscoso:

I think the goal is definitely to explore a little bit.

Dave Blanks:

Cool. Are we talking worldwide or are we talking US?

Val Moscoso:

Definitely worldwide. But I mean, I'll definitely start out slow with the US something.

Dave Blanks:

Sure.

Val Moscoso:

But yeah, I definitely want to go backpacking in Europe or something like that.

Dave Blanks:

Nice. I was going to say, what's one place that you've never been, that you're sure you'll go specifically.

Val Moscoso:

I definitely want to go to Italy at some point.

Dave Blanks:

Okay, all right.

Val Moscoso:

For sure though.

Dave Blanks:

I love it. All right. Well, Val, the sky's the limit and congratulations.

Val Moscoso:

Thank you so much.

Aru Hopper:

I'm Arou Hopper. I want to go to PA school, and I have to get a bunch of clinical hours for that. So I have a job lined up for me as a CNA, and I'll be working either in Charlotte or in Boone. I'm trying to figure out which one.

Dave Blanks:

Thank you for your time and congratulations. And you have a friend here as well. So what is your name?
