Work in journalism for a year

How weird to be able to say I’ve done this. I had no real goal to do it, but back when I was younger a few things just fell into my lap. Admittedly, my journalism jobs weren’t glamorous or anything—a short stint at a small-town weekly newspaper as a reporter/photographer, followed a few years later by back-to-back periods at two different radio stations as a news reporter and anchor. I covered city and county news, school boards, stuff like that. Nothing groundbreaking, no assignments involving travel to foreign countries, just basic legwork and the chance to be in print and on the air. Pretty heady stuff for a small-town 19-to-21-year-old with no experience.

I am working towards this, will start my first year of uni this september, hopefully towards a long successful career path!

Now I work in social media marketing, but as a (student) journalist, I did a mega celebrity red carpet, met former president Bill Clinton, interviewed an openly gay WNBA athlete and worked in print, television, radio and online.

i don’t know where i can learn hacking..?
can someone send me a link with a web where i can learn how to hack or someone can tell me how to do?

and by the way what programs is nice to use for everythink?
like how to rewhite HTML web’s.

I’ve had this goal on my list since before we publicly released 43 Things, and while I’ve made no progress on it, it is still a really important goal to me. I’ve resisted the easy thing – which would be to delete it – since I have no real plan for ever making good on it. But last night, I had the first inkling of how I might set to work on this one. And it involves accomplishing another one of my goals too. Plus a family legacy.

Sometimes things just need to germinate for a few years.

Well, if you can call PC Magazine journalism

This past year has been frustrating, but mostly very fulfilling and a great learning experience.

Our replacements are here, so soon we will be departing, and my one year of full-time work in journalism (through the military) will be over. It’s certainly been a learning experience, and even though there have been a lot of headaches associated with it (probably more due to the military than the journalism itself), this has been worth it.

My love for the industry has held me in it for years.

I’ve toyed with seeking something else as a challenge; but gain real satisfaction from working in the media.

Although I poke fun at the media (through my blogtoon http://askthenewshound.blogspot.com), I do consider myself lucky to be a part of the industry.

We’ve been directed by above to create a new web-based publication in addition to the traditional paper we already produce, which in itself isn’t that bad (except for the fact that it is more work). What is bad is micromanagement by those who don’t know journalism or military public affairs. Although this problem stems from being in the military and not working in journalism.

I think it was Friedrich Nietzsche who said, “That which does not kill me makes me stronger,” and I’ve tried to make it my mantra during this time. I shared that with a co-worker, and he told me his addendum ”... or leave me permanently maimed or scarred!”
