Jan. 14th, 2004 12:58 pmI skipped my Journalism class today.
I want to drop this class. But I don't want to. AUGH!
I find I really hate journalism with a passion. This is a complete surprise to me. I did work on two newspaper articles and a book -- as a source. (What can I say, I've had the proverbial 'interesting' life.) I enjoyed that.
I wanted to the opportunity to be published. My name. In print. With someing I wrote underneath it. I know this builds credibility as a writer anywhere.
But I... just hated the process ofsqueezing water from a stone building contacts and gathering information. I felt like a fucking cardboard cutout acting friendly. I am not an extrovert, unless you got me started on a subject I enjoy. I like to teach, I don't like to sell or convince.
HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT.
So. Do I drop this class and add, oh, ENG 101 online (the only class that's left)?
Where do I get the writing cred then?
