It Starts

Mary Elizabeth Medawar, NBC5 Next

This is so ridiculously confusing. It has officially taken me 50 times longer to maneuver through this site than it will to write this post. I have never blogged before and must admit, it is much more difficult than I ever imagined. So here it goes..

As of yesterday I am an NBC5 Next intern and am already anticipating the completion of my first story. I didn’t really have expectations as to what my first day would entail, but it was a lot like I expected. Brian (the other intern) and I pitched our stories at the morning meeting and received helpful feedback. By next week we each must complete one package and also write a print version for the Web. Realistically, one week is an extensive amount of time for a story, but I am used to being in school and having about two or three weeks. There is no time to squander. Welcome to the real world.
