Current TV

Once again, my mind has been shifted into "school mode." I leave for Virginia in two days, and yet I have so much work to do before I leave in preparation for school and other things. By that, I mean I have to read three plays and write two essays before I leave on Saturday. Fun stuff, let me tell you. Not to mention I'm copying about 15 articles from my old work in The Wooster Blade to add to my growing compilation of a portfolio. Why did break have to end on such a bittersweet note? Alas, college is what I signed up for, and I shouldn't complain about the work I have to put in to get a job in the future. It's all for a good cause, meaning my future career. :)

Speaking of future careers, one internship I am praying to receive in the summer is one for Current TV. Most people have never heard of this channel on the TV because it's one of those "deluxe" channels - the ones that no one ever gets to when they flip from channel-to-channel because it's so high in the channels. It is the TV station that Al Gore created a few years ago, and has an amazingly funny celebrity news show called "infoMania." It picks great political blunders from the week, as well as random editorials where broadcasters can go off about something topical. It is so funny and clever - and I am hoping hoping hoping to work with them in the summer. I would be able to brainstorm with the team and help shoot off-location scenes. Basically, it's a dream job. But in the meantime, I have to finish another application by next week. Plus do an intensive class, starting Monday. Yikes. It's that time of year again.

On the upside, I am excited to see my roommates and sleep in "my" room again. It'll feel nice to sleep under my comforter and have my roomy closet again. Oh, how I've missed it! Also, I cannot WAIT to have instant WiFi again. Augh, it's been such a drag without it. I keep hijacking it from some random neighbor here... It's not illegal if they don't put a password on it! :) That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Wish me luck to already survive next semester - It's going to be such a handful. Can't wait.
