• Currently Listening Something to Talk About By Bonnie Raitt see related

  Things you learn as a News Editor:

  1) How to go a few days with no sleep.

  2) How to, consequently, balance homework, attempting to have a connection with the outside world and staring at five million stories five million times--all without sleep.

  3) All the Security Guards names.

  4) The weird music they play on some random Grove City radio station at 1 am.

  5) How much fun it is to, in the kindest manner possible, mock everyone you write articles about. Truly, the later at night it is, the more mocking occurs.

  6) How many different ways computers can malfunction while you simply try to put TEXT ON A PAGE.

  7) How many different surfaces there are in the tower on which you can scrape your arms, skin your knees or stub your toes as you dance to the weird crazy music on the radio.

  8) All the really, really odd things that happen on campus.

  9) All the wonderful events coming up that you would love to go to but can't because you are either a) working on the paper or b) doing homework (homework? what? do I have that?) or c) so tired that you fell asleep sneaking across lower quad and were subsequently shot by the sniper in Rockwell.

  10) How to keep secrets until a week later, when the paper actually comes out (I'm still working on this one).

  And you know what?

  I LOVE THIS JOB!!!!!!!!!
