In just a few more hours, I will finally have my Sundays back. Just a year ago, I was roped into becoming the Commentary Editor for The Collegian. I guess I was too good at my job because not long after, Shelby (Editor-in-TimeThief) tricked me into becoming the Managing Editor against my will. My Sundays went from editing my own political tirades to begging Shelby to understand that no one cares whether the headings are in font size 18 or 20. “Perfect” became my favorite word as I gleefully tried to convince Shelby to let me leave. Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., I was a captive here with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes.
In all seriousness, working here has been pretty fun. It has also given me a great resume boost and greatly improved my writing. Employers love people who can write well and can show that they can adjust their writing to meet style requirements. So write for The Collegian! Despite the fact that they censor exclamation points, which is my favorite punctuation, they are pretty cool people who will make you laugh and cry (seriously, ask Jeana). It’s been fun! Bye, y’all!
Is this long enough? I’m tired.
