3 days of work experience and then...

Well, its less than a week till the beginning of term. Its the start of my final 'real' term before I graduate as the last term is only six weeks.

I've had a day of Tesco shopping and watching the Formula 1 review of the year. It was an extraordinary year in Formula 1.

AND the biggest thing that happened today was seeing my articles published in the local papers - the east kent gazette, faversham news and sheppey gazette. I was only there for three days on work experience and I wrote loads of articles for them. The first one was about the situation in Israel and Gaza! I had to some up the situation in a sentence.

I'm really pleased to have these stories in the paper; I've wanted for ages to be a journalist and I'm a lot closer to getting there now.

what was your sentence?

"Israel bagan bombing Hamas, the paramilitary Islamic group which controls the Gaza Strip, last month".

It was a small article directed to a local british newspaper reading audience who knew little about the conflict.
