Q: Why did you take journalism?
A: I took journalism because not only am I really into writing, I am also very interested in current world events. Because of this, I thought this class would be very beneficial for my self knowledge to learn more about what is going on in the world today.
Q: What do you think you want to do when you are older, and how can journalism help with that?
A: At the moment considering I am still in high school, I am not totally sure what I want to do when I am older. An idea I had is doing real estate because I have learned a lot about it since that is what my dad does and I really enjoy it. Journalism can help with this because I can write all different kinds of details about the houses and different aspects of real estate.
Q: What do you want to do after high school?
A: After high school I plan to attend a four year college. I hope to find what I am going to tackle in the future and get a stable job in a field of work that I love doing.
Q: Who is your biggest inspiration?
A: I would definitely say my dad is my biggest inspiration because he is a tremendously hard worker. He is always willing to help me when I need it, as well as others. I inspire him for that and I hope to follow in his footsteps as I get older and become more of an adult.
