So I might be upgraded from lowly staff writer to Entertainment Editor next year. Which is like, my goal.
Ashylnn, my editor-in-chief, came up to me and was like: "Your story was really great. You should really consider being Entertainment Editor your senior year." My story was about important musical artists with a headline referencing Good Vibrations. While I was writing my section about Tupac Shakur, Andrew (our photographer) was like: "You should add in something about Mikhail Bakunin because he inspired Tupac." I must've given him a really confused look, because he was like: "The...Russian...writer...? He was a Russian revolutionary...way to know your stuff." It took me awhile to remember that Lost's Mikhail was, in fact, named after a real person.
So I told Sara - who is the Business Editor - about my possible upgrading. I said - "I might be joining you in your editorness."
She was like - "Hannah. You can hardly count without losing your mind."
So I had to explain that I wasn't going into the Business/finance field of the editing, but entertainment, and that made more sense to her. She was like - "Ok, so you're entertaining and you have conversations about music and books that no one even understands. So you'll have your section where you can rant about crappy CDs that are a disgrace to the rock movement and my mathematic brain won't have to listen to your hippie antics."
Sadly, for this issue I have a story about local concerts. What?? "Tom Petty is coming to Columbus on April 20. Tickets range from $95 to $150. The end." So I have to find a way to make it more interesting than just facts. :-/
In other news, I have a stupid concert tonight that I don't want to go to. We're playing three songs. That's it. It's our preview concert for contest, but...grr. What a bad day for this. And then on Thursday I have to go see Scott and Sean's band and I'm pretty sure they're not that good. Yep. I have such faith in my friends.
That's all.
