City of inspiration, birthplace of a dream..

Before I even set foot in D.C. I was already busting with ideas for how to spend my time here. Okay, I'll be honest. It sounds like it's gonna be really rough, I'm gonna have to work with people, which can always be difficult and tricky at times, dealing with people who don't like being worked with etc. I'll leave it at that. It's gonna be tough, real tough. And what's more.. the internship is UNPAID. So. With the help and encouragement of my good friend Steph, I decided to suck it up and make the most of it... and change the world while I'm at it pretty much..

The name of this blog should be familiar to all. No? Try hummin it. Newsies ring a bell? Bunch of newspaper boys singing and dancing around NYC, going on strike against 'the man'. This is no coincidence my friends, no. See the way I figure, I should be getting paid for the time and work I'm puttin in up here. Well never fear brooklyn is here.. I'm gonna be housed with nearly 1,000 other kids just like me.. forced to work, with no pay. It aint right I tell ya!

Anyways i'll skip all the drama and cut to the chase. I'm talking about visions of flash mobs on the mall, yes sir, singing and dancing like the good ole days, secret websites in 5 different languages being created while we're 'working on the internship website', news crews being tipped off by our own journalism interns, short stories and kid's books with notable characters and mascots being made and published by our writing and editing interns, basically another newsies except even more large scale.. and no, not jus D.C., we'e talkin' the whole woild!! The news media and youtube will depict our flash mob, which will promote our website, none other then and the world will know.com, which will inspire thousands of interns across the globe to stand up and fight for our rights!!

Figure if I don't end up gettin paid in the end I'll at least have a good shot at making the back of a Doritos bag..
