Music and proper grammar. That is all I want.

I am a senior at Boston University’s College of Communication majoring in Journalism. After several quarter-life crises since Freshman year about whether to choose a career that I love or choose a career that will make me money, I decided to stop being such a wuss and focus on making my passion — music journalism — a career.

I’ll be using this blog for a few things: analysis of Newsweek.com and their job of writing and reporting news for an online platform, posting any stories I’ve written for class or publications, and as an online portfolio.

This is about as far as I can go in my “About” page, because I still have no idea where exactly I’ll end up after graduation. The goal looks like this: find money, move out to Los Angeles, freelance for music publications for the rest of my life, and ease into public relations or management jobs for record companies, bands, etc.

Here we go.
