First Day as a Blogger

             I'm spending a beautiful Saturday in Lexington learning how to start a blog for my journalism class. If you know me, of course I am doing this before the UK game comes on. 

            Upon receiving my first rejection letter for an opportunity in sports journalism, I wasn't quite sure if I even wanted to continue on the track of reaching my dream as a sports journalist. I felt as if my dream bubble was popped and I was facing the reality that teaching was going to be my only option. It was heart breaking and I had every intention of not continuing down this path. I shed some tears and called my parents, both of them influencing me to keep trying. But it wasn't working, I was set on just giving up. That was until I really took a look into what mom was telling me about famous authors getting rejection letters for some of their most famous pieces. This did relieve a bit of the pain I was feeling and opened my eyes to a lot. I had to realize I have never taken a journalism class and my last english class was in high school, 2 years ago, I'm probably a little rusty. Then I realized, maybe my dream isn't completely out of my reach, I just have to keep trying.

           Anyways! I'm really going to be blogging about sports that I am following, and no guys, it won't just be about UK, though we all know that is by far my strongest subject. I am going to try to be unbiased, as hard as that may be. I look forward to hearing from you!
