Ashley b’s first blog!!

Ok! so finally everything is working with the blog site. I had a post in the works, but as soon as i pressed “publish” the server tragically crashed!

However,it is alive and kicking now and now i can finally blog too!

So let’s catch up…

So far people are pretty ok…there’s a small group that i hang out with and they are pretty nice! We all went to the Newseum on Monday and may i say, that it is hands-down the coolest museum I have ever been to.

There were huge timelines, which sound uninteresting, but when you factor in actual newspapers from the 1800’s and on? its pretty freaking awesome. There was also a recovered antenna of one of the  fallen towers of 9/11. Of course, the most moving section was the “Freedom of Speech” area, that featured all types of controversies that have happened in the news and a huge wall (“Faces of the Fallen”) that had all the pictures of journalists who had died reporting in the field.

Not only that, but the gift shop was too cool! Being an impulsive buyer like myself, it was really hard not to drain my bank account on cool stuff, but those of you who get gifts will be happy! =]

 

we also travelled to teh National Press club where we got to sit in on a panel discussion!

today i made a podcast! and check out livestream.com/wjmc for the mock interview frm yesterday!

i’m pressed for time so i must go!

keep it kosher my dear dill pickles! looovvee you!
