How, oh how, am i failing one of my Journalism classes? It’s my favourite class. It’s my major. And i’m failing… miserably.
What i comes down to is that i love writing. Love it. When it comes to doing articles for my Voice class i have no problem — i often exceed the required length and have to edit my way back down. But for my straight Journalism class i’ve got nothing, because it isn’t just writing. I have to research and delve and interview. While i want to have all of these skills, and surely can succeed in their implementation, i don’t have the time or interest right now. When am i supposed to find time to go out and do investigative journalism for a couple of hours? My sources aren’t exactly available at one in the morning, when i’m usually wasting my time blogging, and i don’t tend to just sit around twiddling my thumbs during the day.
I hate this feeling… of walking into class knowing that i owe work, owe time, and owe effort. And, i have until Friday to fix it before making my imminent failure (or at least a C) a reality. Oh boy…
