The opportunity of a lifeitme...

January 18 2006

After a week of being in class, it's safe to say I like this semester more than I do last semester. I know what I'm doing, I don't look as much like a freshman, and my classes are suited more towards my liking.


Journalism/Electronic Media 275 - absolutely love the class. Can't wait to start work in the TV station (more about that at the bottom)


Psychology - Eh, it's interesting and it makes you think. I understood the first chapter and that's a good sign.


Astronomy - Unbelieveably boring and it lasts for 2 hours. Better than geology though.


Math - Math is math. Nothing more, nothing less.


English - Better than 101, still kind of bored with it though.


For JEM we have to go work at the TV station or radio station 2 hours a week until the end of the semester. I've been waiting for this ever since August. We were given the opportunity to be anchors on the live TV newscast so in pursuit of my dream (ESPN, Sportscenter, giggity)...I auditioned. I don't know how it all came out yet but I will tell you this: 30 girls, 4 guys, and out of the freshmen I talked to I was the only one with on camera experience and to top all of that off there were more juniors and seniors than freshman (possibly 6 or 7 freshmen auditioned).


I know I'm only a freshman but still..I want this more than anything right now. I've still got time to learn and time to be on TV but just to know that I'm good enough to compete with someone a few years older and who has more experience is what I want right now. 


I'm nervous.


That's all for now.
Birthday in a few weeks! Be ready! Ha..right..
