Hello,
To those of you who don't know me, (which probably makes more than half of the globe's population), my name is Dylan, and yes I am a girl.
After studying journalism I realised what a big mistake I made. The truth is that it sucks to be a journalist. It is almost impossible to get a job in the media industry unless you know somebody, who knows somebody. And the pay is crap. So, when I discovered the wonders of 'citizen journalism' I decided to join the enemy. Here I am, writing a blog...
To be honest, being a journalist was my life dream; to travel, to learn, to write... it all mixed together in such harmony, but of course, a lot of bitter journos passed their bitterness to me.
How couldn't they be bitter? We live in a society where important and simple things have been left aside, only to be replaced by cheap gossip columns. I SAY NO MORE!
Just to be clear, this blog is not about complaining. It is about sharing my favourite things in life forgetting all the 'journo rules'. This is my little space to show what I like about my life, and other people's lives. I love to write and I am not going to let my resentments towards my profession stop me this time.
The way I'm going to do this is the following:
Everyday I will post a new blog entry about something that has caught my attention. Most of the time it will be about music or fashion. But also it could be about movies or simply popular culture.
I hope that if anybody reads this, it will make them smile, because so far that is my only purpose. There are far too many dramatic situations in the world to try and complicate our lives even more. Let's enjoy the blogging and blabbing!
xx
