First Blog EVER!

First off, welcome!

This is my first attempt at a blog and my first post. So if you're tuning in, I hope to keep this updated on a fairly regular basis while I am going through the trials and tribulations of the University of Western Ontario's (UWO)- Journalism School.

Well after attending my first day of my Master's program in Journalism I have to say, I AM EXCITED! The group of people that have been paired together for this 2010 stream seem outstanding.

So, what can you expect from me here? Consider this (your) the reader's bill of rights.
- I will try to give a full and comprehensive account of my experiences at UWO's Journalism school.
- I will not blog about gossip or "real" people unless they have given me permission to do so. Gossip is fine, we all do it. I love TMZ as much as the next person, however, this blog is not proper forum for it.
- I will provide as much information about what it is like to be a journalism student.
- I will attempt to keep this updated as regularly as possible... keep in mind that I am in school, so if I'm not around for a little bit, it's because I have been completing my student journalistic duties.

I think that is all the rights you will have. Any suggestions, please pass them on. I hope a little bit of sarcasm is showing through.

Now the big question. Print, or should I say, text. Radio. Or Broadcast? I entered the program like many others with a mind set on print. As I sat in class I had already discounted radio, however, the passion of our professors with the radio stream resonated with me and I will definitely have to keep my opinions and options open.

I think that is all for today. It has been a long few days. I will try to fill in some more details tomorrow.
