Everyday is a journey for journalists

I have to admit something. I wish I would've started this blog earlier in the semester (I was encouraged to do so, but I got so preoccupied with other things-shame on me, I know.) The journey to become a journalist has been a very long one, and it still continues. Even after I graduate, I know that I'll still be learning. After encountering several bumps throughout this semester while performing interviews and even getting lost on the way to shoot, I understand that being a journalist isn't about perfecting the techniques we've been taught in class, but it's learning how to utilize what we've learned in class to fulfill the stories that we should be covering. Even if a journalist goes into the field armed with textbook knowledge, it does not mean a thing if you can't utilize those techniques in the field! 

So, here's my journey! I hope you all enjoy it! Next semester I'll make an attempt to post as I cover a story instead of bombarding the blog with the videos simultaneously (no promises though!) When I'm up against various deadlines, I may not be able to post the videos immediately! 

I hope you all enjoy the blog! Thanks for stopping by! Feel free to leave comments! Opinions matter to me. I hope that I can successfully share my progress with you all!
