Meeting BOB SCHIEFFER!

I guess it's like they say, hard work gets the rewards! Bob stopped in to thank me for volunteering at the Schieffer Symposium and gave me about 45 minutes of his time! We talked about everything from the future of local newspapers, to how I can get a J-O-B! It was a great reminder of what I set out to do in the industry, and hey, he is a TCU grad, so if he can do it I can do it!


A note on the Symposium: 
A wonderful experience! I got to meet both Arianna Huffington and Brit Hume briefly. Huffington commented on my heals saying if I could last a night in those I must be a hard worker! As I always say "Flats are for quitters." I met many journalist from Fort Worth's local papers, and the whole experience reassured me that I do have a future in this industry! Also hearing the perspectives of some of the greats in our field was very compelling. One thing that was cemented in my head: Twitter has arrived!

My photos, captured from my phone, aren't quite as good!
