I am so hard for this hat. Anyone got a spare $160?
My newsy experience continues. It's hit and miss- I like writing stories and interviewing people, but I'd rather be messing around with multimedia software. Have to fight the urges to shun other people and desires to be left alone to do my own thing. That's not what I'm there for, dammit. COME ON, EXTROVERSION! Jesus Christ, I need to get my act together. Why must I be so damn awkward :/ Really not helping my potential future.
Funnily enough, there's another work experience chick at Quest who used to be friends with one of my old BFFs. We all hung out together a couple of times in the early naughties (God I hate that term), so it's good to have someone to chat with. She's doing photography so we're hoping we'll be sent on assignment together sometime. Poor thing got some of her images published but didn't get credited :( At least my shitty fluff pieces have my name on them. City North News tomorrow, by the way. I'm sure my stories will help distract people from real issues that matter, just like actual journalists do!
Matt has established a hovel in which we can talk side by side - on our respective computers via MSN - in peace. I hung out there last night, it's pretty much just a basement but it gives him space away from his dickish room mate which is good.
Ugh, I need sleep... working 9-5 doesn't suit those of us that stay up 'til 4am.
