Growing Up (and getting older)

Well I thought it was cool for me to manage 2 1/2-hour road trips down to Pittsburgh alone, or 4-hour drives to Niagara Falls (Canadian Side)....But I just completed my first 8-hour trip, alone, and without getting lost. *Pats herself on the back*

Well, I drove down yesterday, found the hotel, and met up with Marshall Adams and his girlfriend, a Reporter for WBTV, for dinner. Then, exhausted, I slept, and was not ready to wake up this morning to come to the station. However, I did. And as usual, I got here waaaaay early because I planned extra time in case I got lost, and I didn't! Yay!

So far today I have :

- impressed Marshall with my WC skills, lol
-Helped produce the weekend edition of WBT's Charlotte's Morning News by tracking down and booking guests
-begun to learn the Newsroom 4.0 Computer System
-cut up CBS National Feeds
- written two wraps (and been told they were good!)
- seen a bit of the city!

Later Today I Will:
Sit in on Mike's newscasts
sit in on Don's talk show
get lost trying to find something to eat for dinner? i havent even passed any fast food places yet...how odd...

It's only 4:30 and its been a heckabusy day!

I'll keep you updated...

Oh yes, and as for the growing older...in 10 days I'll be 22! Yikes!
