Within Society
The Garden is an Academy Award nominee for best documentary, and I attend to the presentation where I met the film director, Scott Hamilton Kennedy. This documentary follows the plight of Latin-Americans farmers in LA, and not being in my country allows me to have a more sensitive impression of the film, I enjoyed it.
Also I had the opportunity to assist to an evening with Gwen Ifill, recognized journalist and author of the book “The breakthrough”.
One step forward
In my job I had my ups and downs. This week I assisted two of my colleges in making TV articles. I assisted Karina at a hearing about Chavez referendum. Also, I assisted Fede interviewing people for a St. Valentine’s article. I learned how they do the stand up for TV and how to get quotes for TV. This week I also learn Teleprompter, and the next day my boss asks me to be the Prompter. Things didn’t happen as expected, because one of the scripts was wrong written, and people in cabin went crazy, the host improvised and the real prompter finally saved the program. When I arrive to the office the host was really upset about what had happened and was complaining about the prompter, I mean me. These are the experiences people learn more from, and to me this was a step forward my learning experience. Nevertheless I am happy because the division director had me as a guest in the radio show “Club de los Oyentes” and finally one of my articles was uploaded in the website! Check it out…

Keen Teens
As part of my program I have to do a civic engagement project, and I choosed an organization called Keen Teens. What I read in the description of this option was a music program for volunteers to have fun with children. I got interested and I registered in the program. When I got into the place I was informed that it was a program for children with disabilities, big surprise. I had experience working with these children, but for me it was really hard, emotionally talking. But this time was very different, this time I just come up with the feeling that I can recognize happiness in people, and children with disabilities truly are happy, and I felt good.
Fun was also in my week; I went to Rock Bottom, the National Zoo and went crazy in the Fashion Centre at Pentagon City. Now my favorite part…
“The MOST or the EST” SECTION
The most influential
I realized the privileges of having a press ID, I was able to meet Ifill backstage, as press “people wants you to be there” and I’ll take advantage of it.

The most comforting
After the big issue with teleprompter my boss told me not to worry about, I really felt he have faith in me, and that really made me feel better.

For my article, I called some dance companies, and I talked to a dancer and choreographer of DC. We talked about dancing, I was eager to dance.
