For as much time that I spend on the computer, I never seem to have the time to write for this thing. Sharpening my mad procrastinating skills.
My apologies to people that actually follow!
Anyway, now that my digital journalism workshop has been put to rest, I'll start posting again. Pinky swear.
Digital journalism, for all the time that it sucked from my schedule and all the joy that it sucked from my soul, was a wonderful experience. Learning how to shoot and edit packages for the Internet was so amazing that I've actually started to look for jobs that include it. I think it could be a lot of fun to be a digital journalist. It means that I could do more than write every day. And as much as I love writing, I like to switch it up a bit sometimes. You know? Of course you do.
Here's some samples of my stuff, if you're bored and looking for ways to learn and be entertained. Watch out for the dailies! Those were the ones that my partner and I had less than 24-hours to make...and sometimes it really shows.
I'm going to try and keep up with a post every other day, so bear with me and push me around if I start to procrastinate again!

Turning 21 and other things of some importance
So people are actually reading this thing...and asking me to update it? Definitely not the type of response I was expecting, so thanks everyone for reading it and encouraging me to continue!
Not that I would stop without your support...I like to think that I´m kind of a big deal.
Fun Fact: Briana googles herself quite a lot.
Anyway, here´s a quick Argentine update.
My 21st birthday was on Sunday! And I have no pictures of my birthday party from Saturday night! I was just too lazy to take any. But anyway, it was awesome. Here is a very faithful re-creation of what occured, brought to you by Google Image search. Not appropriate for minors!
My friends down here and I went to my favorite pizza restaurant in Buenos Aires, Romario´s. It was very tasty.
During my dinner, I began my first drink as a 21-year-old. It was a chopp of Brahma Beer. It tasted very legal.
Afterwards, my friends and I took a cab to a really funky club called Tazz in Palermo.
We drank cosmopolitans...
And tried to crash a private party. We didn´t know what it was when we tried.
Anyway, around 2am some of my friends got tired and went home. We had a field trip early in the morning, so they wanted a good night´s sleep.
Me and my friends Amanda and Sarah J on the other hand, decided that sleep was not a necessary tennet of attending a field trip. We stayed at Tazz for a little while longer and danced.
On Sunday morning, we went with IES to the town of El Tigre...we were very very tired. I was happy it was my 21st birthday, but I just wanted to curl up in a little ball and sleep.
Yes, I know you guys expected my 21st birthday to look like this:
But I´m classier than that.
