THE PORTFOLIO

FAVORITE ARTICLE

My most favorite piece of article for journalism class was writing Busted. The reason why was most likely because I can relate to most of the problems that my fellow teens are experiencing. In the beginning, it was no hardship to write because it was simple. Afterwards it became complicated because of all the changes. After the changes I started reading it in a different light and personally I think I did an admirable job. Choosing the topic came easily and with the help of a friend, the picture made up for the laugh to go along with it.

LEAST FAVORITE ARTICLE

My least favorite piece of article was writing The Cinderella Pact. The book was fun to read but writing the article proved to be a major dilemma. Every paragraph seemed to be a summary. I tried rewriting and on the second trial I finally succeeded. Overall I think I may challenge myself to write another book review or to make it more challenging a movie review, but I don't think it will be any time soon for the foreseeable future.

REFLECTION

My reflection on experience and of self as a journalist was wonderful. As an individual I'm a very private person and being a journalist allowed me to become open, especially conducting interviews. My experiences as a journalist helped me to cope with certain aspects of life. It allowed me to experience a somewhat minor detail to a real journalist, but I won't complain because I enjoyed everything relating to journalism and the class.
