Today I drove to FIU, Biscayne Bay Campus for my web design class. And as I cruised through a hectic Miami traffic, my mind flew back to J School when I was taking classes in the same room I was about to learn a new dimension of Journalism. The course tittle itself sounded interesting enough "Web Design for Journalist", Wow! --It kept pounding in my head-- this is a must-do in a multimedia era when the face of journalism is changing so rapidly. For someone like me, who took only one broadcasting class and chose to follow a print journalism track, this course will be challenging. But I guess life is about new experiences and freeing yourself to the unexpected and changes. No, I wasn't expecting taking this class this semester, and it happened by chance because a class I had registered for turned out not well-suited for my program. And yes, I believe there is a reason why I'm here. Although I'm not sure how to call the "stuff" I want to learn here, I will make the most of this experience, giving my best.
