Doesn't time fly when you are having fun.

Sorry for the lack of posts, I am currently on work placement at the Petersfield Post and I am loving it. Getting loads of news stories printed and writing loads. I'm really glad I'm staying in one place for both weeks, means I can really make an impression. Here is one of my stories:


http://www.petersfieldpost.co.uk/news/bordon/fire_was_caused_by_household_cleaning_liquids_1_2398985


I have about four in the paper this week, the taxi prices one, about the Vertigo building site and the comedian teenager. I can't believe it's Friday tomorrow, this week has flown by.


On another note I am desperately awaiting the shorthand results to be printed, I'm not going to lie if I haven't passed I am going to be so gutted! I can do 60 words a minute so why can't I pass the exam! I have been checking nearly every hour to see if the college's results have been posted, but still nothing yet.




New work published in The Guide 2, New acts for 2011 and comedians coming down to the South.

That's all for now, but I will post some more soon......

My recent so called life...

So, since the last September post, other than starting my course, not a lot has been happening really. I have been to a couple of gigs; I saw We Are Scientists, McFly (I went with my sister who is a big fan...), and I will be seeing Paul Weller tonight. Gigs next year so far are Beady Eye, Glee, Kylie, Katy Perry and Take That. Very excited for all of them, next year should be good for gigs.


I’ve seen some good films, The Runaways, which was fantastic. I really admire what Joan Jett and Cherie Currie achieved. I was a little freaked out that they were only 15 or 16 but what they did in the music world, being the first girl punk band, it was a man's world and they burst through it was really interesting. Saw Toy Story 3 as well, which was pretty immense, not as good as the other but still good.

I am still trying to get through my Jackie Kennedy biography; I’m not finding it difficult to read, it is just trying to find time to read that is the problem. It is a really interesting book though, te way her dad was a serial womanizer and put her mum through hell, and yet Jackie knew about J.F. Kennedy’s indiscretions and just let him get away with it. I am only up until to when John is voted in as President and he has already cheated on her loads. It’s funny what some women will put up with for love.

I have a lot of fiction books to read, most of which I have borrowed from friends. Then I need to read the biography on Queen Victoria, which I have had for ages, ever since I saw the Young Victoria and thought she was really influential and interesting.


As Christmas approaches I have noticed an array of Marilyn Monroe books hitting the shelves and they have all gone on my list. People have said that I already have too many, but can I help if new books come out with new things in them!

New article: http://edition.pagesuite-professional.co.uk/launch.aspx?referral=other&refresh=Cg419Q0ai6N0&PBID=898dcbba-75b6-419a-989f-aa69bed7582e&skip=

I also will have my Weller gig review in the paper tomorrow.

That's all I think, I am going to try and post more often.

So in the words of one of my favourite films "thanks for stopping by."*





*Anchorman in case you were wondering.

Another day...

So first things first new Guide 2 out....
http://edition.pagesuite-professional.co.uk/Launch.aspx?referral=other&refresh=gG06T5j11kK8&PBID=898dcbba-75b6-419a-989f-aa69bed7582e&skip=
I have the essential gig guide in there.

New Solent Life is out soon, loads of good articles in the July issue, cupcakes, bbqs, growing sunflowers and breaks away.

Last column in The News today, so make sure you get yours.

So I am now at a bit of a loose end, as Wednesday was my last day at work very strange. I cried my eyes out as I have a lot of good friends there. The day was very good, pub garden, drink and sun, a great way to toast our time at work. However, I have found out I have been offered a place on a journalism course starting in October, so I will be a qualified journalist at the end! FINALLY!!! Means going back to school, which will be a little strange but all worth it in the end when I can say I am a fully fledged journalist.

Oh before I forget as well I am off to a Twilight marathon tonight all three films back to back, then the brand new Eclipse at 12, fantastic.
