Out in the field.

Thursday was stressful. Wednesday night I was searching for stories and emailling them to Professor Nicholson, but none of them got the OK. So as of 12:30am, I was without a story and Professor Nicholson's suggestion was for me to get some rest and start fresh in the morning. This wasn't exactly comforting as I have class from 9 until 11, but I did it. After my first class I went in to talk to Professor Nicholson, who told me about the Autumn in New York Horse Show. What's funny is that I knew that it was starting and was thinking about emailing him about it, but I figured he wouldn't think it was a good story. I rode and showed horses for 15 years and almost joined the equestrian team at Syracuse, so needless to say I was excited to go out to the fairgrounds and cover the show. It was a really great experience and brought back a lot of memories for me. I'm really getting the hang of editing (and as dorky as it sounds, I really enjoy it), and I'm having an easier time approaching people for an interview. Hopefully finding a story in the future won't be so hectic, but it was still a lot of fun.
