Video Games

Taking My Baby to School

Today is my first day of school after a year long break.  I’m sitting in the classroom right now and while I feel misplaced, I’m glad to be back.

I’m majoring in journalism and for my reporting classes I was planning on covering video games.  Sadly, my professor has already stated in the syllabus that video games is a beat we cannot cover (insert frown here).  So I’m going to broaden it to technology and pitch it to him.  Hopefully he’ll accept.

I’m also taking a required music class.  For our first assignment, the professor wants us to bring in a song that we like and represents our music taste.  I’m going to bring in the main theme to BioShock, “The Ocean on His Shoulders.”  It’s such a beautiful song and I can’t wait to present it.

  1. I’m majoring in journalism too.

    Unfortunately they don’t offer any courses in journalism yet in my college.

    They do offer English courses, which I have been taking.

    I’m also going to minor in Graphic Design, Information Technology,and possibly Psychology 🙂

    Good luck with school!

  2. Sucks that he won’t let you do videogames, but I guess it might be a bit overdone and he’d be getting 30 homeworks about videogames alone. But hey, maybe you could spin a new angle by placing a female’s point of view of videogames…without it being exclusively about videogames. xD I, for one, am a bit annoyed that magazines like Game Informer don’t have female reviewers.
    Thanks for the kind words you left on my journal. I fell into a bit of a rut, since complaining to my fiance about it just leads to him reassuring me that I’ll be fine when I really don’t feel that way. Hope your journalism class goes well for you!
    BTW, just out of curiousity, how did you find my blog?
