Internship: Day 5

Dudes. Chicks. Just got home after finishing up day 5 of the internship. I have this strange, unexpected feeling of accomplishment about the whole thing, which I didn’t expect to have. Today I was hoping to have a pretty cruisy one, finishing off a couple of things I’d started on Thursday, but I made the(…)

Grrrr..

Just did an annoying phone interview with a local business owner who we are doing a favour for by writing about her business like she wanted us to and she was, erm, NOT FRIENDLY. I’ve punched out the story and sent it to Alena and now am going to make myself a cuppa. !

Mon – Thurs Hana @ Ipswich News

YAAAYY!!! Dudes and chicks, Hanna Golingi will finally blog about her internship experiences so far at good old Ipswich News. I, unlike a certain Mr Gough, knew that we were supposed to be doing this regularly during our internship week, but unfortunately I have not been able to find my WordPress username and password til(…)

Internship: Days 1-4

OK dudes and chicks, here goes my first blog post on the internship. I was going to leave it until tomorrow and do a whole week wrap-up until I finally read John’s letter and realised it was supposed to be an on-going thing, oh well. My week has been pretty up and down, but at(…)

History in the making..

Day three and four… I have a confession to make. I spent an awful lot of time googling Julia Gillard and Labor today so my story writing may have suffered. Well, it did suffer, because for 99 per cent of today I really would have liked to crawl in a nice hole somewhere and fall(…)

Interning South of the Border

Well, despite dreading our required week long print internship, I have to say I have been thoroughly enjoying the experience. As many of you know, having worked in broadcast media previously, my preference for reporting has been directed towards television and/or radio however the traditional style of news reporting has opened my eyes up to(…)

My time at the RBH continues.

I’ll start this rambling post by saying that I’ve really been enjoying reading other Jscholar’s entries. And I really enjoyed reading the Newsbytes story by a certain Mr Stilianos today. I last posted after my first enjoyable day at RBH. Tuesday morning I arrived after a quick pit stop at a chain coffee shop with(…)

Internship Day 3

Today at Quest flew past with lots to do and a whole new perspective on the office dynamics – the editor has a great rapport with his journos and they regard him with affection. Got four stories done and a funny vox pop with a photographer with a sense of humour and some press releases(…)

Internship – Day 3

I think I might have left the wrong impression with my last post, it seems to come across as if I’m bored – well I’m not. It’s actually been great and very productive so far. So far I’ve sifted through a few press releases to make proper stories out of (always requires effort) and make(…)

Day two..

So this week my flu decided to come back in full force, and I spent most of the day coughing and spluttering at my desk in the corner. I can’t tell whether Julian, the editor is sorry for me or concerned for everybody else.. But, the newspaper stops for no one and my story writing(…)

Work experience update

Well, after feeling really useless this morning, my day improved with being given more to do – working on two stories but unfortunately have to wait for this boy to come home from school and this lady to return home – but that is all good as can at least contact them after hours!! Have(…)
