So I completed my first day at The Washington Times. Starting on Super Tuesday was a trial-by-fire to say the least, but the fact that I got through unscathed makes me more confident than ever. Best part is, I got to write something!
My editor assigned the other intern and I an article about how youth are using the internet to get involved in politics. We were crunched for time, definitely. But we pulled it off.
Not to brag, but I did most of the work on the article. The other intern was preoccupied for a long time with another task before he came to work with me. When he did come in, he just contributed with some additional information, which was helpful, but I did 98 percent of the writing.
I'm definitely drained. But it was worth it at the end of the day to hear my editor say we did a good job. Sweet.
So totally, check it out.
