Moving to Paris
During my trip to India, I worked with a woman who offered me an amazing internship opportunity. Emma Heald works for the Editors Weblog based in Paris, France and she told me I could come work for her this summer if I wanted to. Naturally I decided I would do this. So this spring break, my parents and I will be going to Paris to find a place for me to live! While I work for her, I will be writing about international journalism and media. I am actually very excited to do this because it will give me a very strong background in the journalism industry. It is important to know how to write a valid story and know AP style, but it is also very important to know the industry and world of journalism. I'm hoping this internship will open up a whole new world for me. I can't believe the opportunities that have been handed to me in the last year and I could not be more grateful.
International Journalist
I just returned home from an across the world trip and an across the world experience. Last week I worked with Western Kentucky Universities iMedia Team at the WAN-IFRA 2009 World Newspaper Congress and 16th World Editors Forum in Hyderabad, India as a multiblogger. I was very fortunate to work in the World Editors Forum and listen to some very amazing and talented editors from around the world. It was also great to be in an environment with tons of other journalists who have the same interests as myself. Being at this conference has solidified the fact that I will be a successful journalist no matter what. Eventually, I would like to become an editor of a very large, credible and established publication. Now that would be a dream.
