I'm a little late jumping onto the blog bandwagon but I suppose it's better late than never. To be perfectly honest the only reason I've claimed this little section of cyber-space is to help my degree. We (journalism students at UCLan) have all been asked to start a blog as part of the online section of the course. I'll try to blog as much as possible but don't expect anything too riveting!
The last few days haven't been very happy ones in the world of news - Earthquakes in Chile and Killer Whales in Flordia. On a lighter note, the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver have finally finished after 17 rather embarrassing days for the UK. I suppose the fact that the one medal we did win was a gold is something to be pleased about; but compared to host Canada's 14 gold medals it isn't that impressive, is it? One medal over 90 events, says a lot doesn't it?
I'm hoping that as I become more familiar with the world of blogging my posts will become longer and more interesting - I might even include a few pictures and videos now and then. For now though, I'll leave it at this.
