How to become a journalist
It made me
 "fulfilling a life long dream"
How I did it: I dreamed of it since being 12. Then I went to an engineering school and had to give up the dream for various reasons. Then I moved to the US and managed to get a reporter job as an internship when I was in grad school. The beginning was very humble due to my broken rusty English and lack of industry knowledge. However, I worked hard, and got amazing experience (3 years.) I also ended up taking a position in the industry that I covered as a reporter.

It made me
full of purpose
How I did it: First, I applied for a part time job at a local radio station while I was in college, got it, and worked the horrible shifts (weekends and holidays). I then applied for a full time news reporter job at a radio station across the country (you know, for fun)... and got it!I decided to accept the job, packed one suitcase and headed 4500 kms away from home.I'm loving every minute of it!Basically, I graduated early from college because I… Read how I did it…

I need to go to almighty school for this I guess. It is in the same category as “artist” online, so I am guessing this is going to be a difficult task. Right after I click submit, I am going to search if anyone has completed this and learn the steps.

My mission

After reading this blog I found my passion. http://embraceliving.net/blog/2008/12/how-to-find-out-if-you-are-living-your-real-purpose-now/
It is: “To provide rational analysis on issues which affect the community.”
I will tell you how I did it once I have completed the goal.

Considering my social ‘disability’ I wasn’t sure I was cut out for the big, mean and nasty world of journalism- but I’m not giving up just yet.
Last term (at uni) I wrote up an interview in about 55 minutes (I am so massively unorganised) and still managed to achieve a 2:1 (A sort of grade B, I guess) and lots of positive praise from my tutor. So I must be able to write, right?
I will persevere.
Journalism
5 months ago
It is my biggest goal to become a journalist. In fact I am in college right now trying to obtain my degree in Mass Communication. I love to write and I love to research and learn new things. Writing has always been my strong point. Now I just need the motivation to continue with my schooling.
I love writing

My confidence has been down since my best friend died. I haven’t wrote any poems or stories since that night. I finally started working on some new song lyrics for friend. I love to take pictures. and I love writing. Ive always been told i should be a writer or journalist. It looks like its a challenge but im going to strive to be the best and work on it until I can become the best. You got to love what you do in order to be good at it. :)
Working on it!

I am currently Editor-in-chief of my high school’s newspaper, and I am applying to colleges as a Journalism major. I’m also feeling more and more confident in my writing. Yeah!
It’s exciting seeing a very long term goal of mine falling into place. I still have a long way to go, but hey, this isn’t just a small goal like “dance more”- this is my future.
