This is one of the reason I would must rather write for the hell of it and not publish. I don't have the spelling or grammar for it. I would need to find a Damn good editor if I wanted to write. Nah I would much rather just work and not really go to college...oh wait I would make more money if I go to college but the fees and debt from loans will make it so I don't get that money anyway. Damn you vicious cycle

Most people trained in journalism these days are working in content marketing. It's still writing, pretty easy, and it's still quite creative. It's still journalism of a sort. Getting a foot in the door of magazines and newspapers these days is just stupidly difficult.

Because unless you already have a job that is paying you good money you're not going to find that job.

Three years now, since I graduated. Even then all the stuff I do is online though. I got lucky by specialising in a niche (mortgage finance and house prices). I would say it's still possible to get in if you're committed to it. If it's something you want to do, just try your best to get as much work experience now as you can and like write freelance and everything. Like I say, it's possible, but you need to go all out to get there.

Hey if you've got BBC experience, man, that will stand you in good stead, same with the local paper thing. I would say press them for any work even if it's part time. Even see if they'll let you do some freelance stuff. It pays poorly but you get bylines which will help when you graduate.

Yeah to be honest it's the only thing I've ever wanted to do, so I've always pictured myself doing it. When you're at uni though I think it can be hard to envisage yourself in a full-time career of any kind. Do you mean you don't think it's something you want to do full time now?

I would say if you've ever felt like journalism is something you want to do, though, stick with it and go for it, don't give up.

ASDF, THENIMRODS, PANIC!, TISHAJACKSON!!!!, OLD.GREGG, GEMMA375*, TROYMAZING, and any else that I missed on the list, please come back, this place will never be the same without yall. It just wont! :(

Saw that like a month ago lol. That's how most girls look when they try to dance, it's tragic.

Two years ago, I would have said the same with my art market degree. It'll all work out in the end though.

Now I manage a pub and have my own flat, go figure...

DUDE, it's been 7 years since I first found this place.

Oh, hey...what's up guys?

Been really busy lately getting settled into the new year at university. Will be more active in the coming weeks hopefully.
