SF Chronicle in the Morning

Today has been eventful, but not at the same time. It was nice to go visit the SF Chronicle and I got to go on a tour with the other BAMMA people, but it wasn't a really eventful tour. I was in their morning meeting and that was quite chill and what not. I guess I expected something crazy and exciting, which I know realize was a bit of a stupid expectation because working at the SF Chronicle is a desk job once you enter the building. The fun part about journalism is going out to the "real world" and interviewing people, not sitting in front of a computer and typing (like I am doing now). It was a nice experience though because not everyone gets a tour of the SF Chronicle.

CONGRATS TO NATASHA! (Our speaker at grad!!)

We're going to an art gallery opening tonight, so we have to do everything before 4:30, so we get there in time. My multimedia is almost done because I don't really have much to work with. I had like 12 images and 10 minutes of audio which I reduced to like 1:27. It's all good though.
