About Me
Every person has to summarize his or her life once in a while. This action is generally associated with elderly people, but, in my opinion, the earlier you start to do it and the more often you do it, the better you understand who you are, and what you have to do next. Thus, I guess, in my 15 years I haven’t very much to say, but at least I can think about what made me who I am right now.
I grew up in a family with wholesome inner climate, where there has been neither overindulgence, nor extreme severity, which taught me to be reasonable and temperate already in my earliest years. Every member of my family knew the range of his or her rights and duties, and it was generally supposed that everyone does what is expected from him. There has never been a reason to rebel for me, as it is often the case with teenagers, for nothing out of the ordinary has been asked of me and no boundaries that had to be destroyed had been set.
My friends say that I am a very funny and an interesting girl with a good sense of humor. As soon as I meet new people who are happy to meet me, I feel extremely comfortable with them. I believe that friendship is one of the most important values in human life. We exchange new ideas, find many interesting things about each other and experience new things. I appreciate friendship and people who surround me.
This time, I got to be real.
About My Site
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A JOURNALIST
As with many other high school juniors, life is rapidly unfolding and confusion and chaos are in full force; primarily, due to the choices and considerations for careers, jobs, college, and the future ahead.
​
This site is all about life and articles of an aspiring journalist. It's great when you see someone reading and enjoying a piece you've written. And I am happy to share the stories, articles I wrote and I will write soon.
​
Despite the tolling bell of print journalism’s decline, there’s still life in good writing. I want to be a journalist because I believe that every single person has a story to tell. There is way more than meets the eye, and I want to know all about people, like what music they like, what sports they're into, what their favorite subject is, why they majored in what they did, why they didn't go to school and so much more. Not every person is going to be as open about themselves, sometimes you have to dig for it, but while you're digging, sometimes you'll find that the best stories come up in casual conversation.
​
I could go on forever about why I want to become a journalist because it's such a fascinating field. Learning about who a person is, what they're like, what they're into and so many other things is what I'm interested in. It also helps me out a ton that I have a love for writing. Next time you find yourself talking to someone about what they're majoring in, don't tell them why they shouldn't do it, ask them why they're doing it. You never know, the answer may surprise you.
