Every time I come back to this blog I decide I don’t like the lay out. This time I’m going for pretty pretty flowers and hearts, which seem appropriate after having my first properly romantic valentines day last week. Hurrah.

Having said all that, I haven’t been coming back to my blog all that often in recent days/weeks. I have been stupidly busy at university with my new modules and learning how to do yet more fun journalism stuff. I was reporting from a multiple murder trial at Nottingham Crown Court on Friday which was great fun. I even used shorthand. The whole thing is starting to feel real now – I can do journalism, I am getting better at it, and one day soon I might even get a proper job in it…

This coming Friday I am chief sub-editor for our little newspaper. This is very exciting as I will get to boss around people (who might be people I don’t like) as well as subbing the front page and editing everyone else’s work. This makes me particularly happy as it will also be my 24th birthday that day. Hurrah.
