Here I come World

You know that moment when you finally realize what you want to spend the rest of your life doing? That tiny moment where everything seems to make sense and you final understand why you were put here in this world? A bit dramatic, yes, but that's what I experienced recently.
I finally realized why I want to be a journalist, why I plan to attend Syracuse and major in Public Communications, why I'm going to move to Chicago after college and write for the Chicago Tribune.
This epiphany was jumpstarted by a conversation I had with my father about our current newspaper. I expressed my concern that our newspaper did not do what a newspaper should do, give voice for the students who sometimes felt deprived of it, bring the truth to the people around us. My dad looked at me and told me,"If you don't like it, do something about it. Make it your job to create a newspaper that represents the voices of the students and unifies them even more.

Isn't that what a journalist would do? "

That moment was the second that I discovered that that is exactly what be to be done. This would be the beginning to my endless journey to bring truth and justice to the world through words. This I'm what I'm supposed to do.
Therefore, this post is my promise to make that dream come true. And the first thing I need to do is make sure this school has a newspaper that will continue to provide news and the honest truth to the people who read it long after I graduate and become a reputable journalist for the Chicago Tribune.
