News Associates - what a ride!
As life at News Associates reaches its eleventh hour, I’ve been racking my brains to come up with a fitting epilogue for the time I’ve spent training in Wimbledon, and to offer some advice to anyone reading this as a prospective student.
Glass half-full
I have come to accept in recent weeks I am definitely a glass half-full person.
7/7 inquest
With a reporting mock and shorthand exam out of the way – anyone know an outline for too bloody quick?
E = Exams
As Christmas approaches that dreaded E word keeps cropping up in the majority of conversations – Exams.
Writer's block, deadlines and exams
There’s no point in trying to hide it. I’ve got writer’s block today.
Revision, revision, revision
I’m currently lying slumped on my sofa depressed at the prospect of two hours of shorthand.
Train journeys and Public Affairs
It might have only been seven weeks since starting the course but I feel as if I have been here a lot longer given the amount of work done in this time – certainly a lot more than university!
Reporting - A journalism driving test?
Human faeces or poo? It’s a conundrum all journalists face from time-to-time, but in truth there is no simple answer.
Never a Dull Moment
Three weeks into life at News Associates and it seems as though each one goes quicker than the last.
Whiskey tasting with a difference!
Mid-way through the first week, I was expecting this to be a duplicate of the Shorthand blog, such was the hold those curls, strokes and squiggles had over our lives, but that was before Thursday afternoon.
