I find myself pondering a question on the eve of trying out for the LeTourneau Yellow Jacket. Specifically, I intend to become a freelance writer for them. I have a problem though... the school newspaper is so bad, do I want to associate myself with them?
Don't get me wrong. I am not that pompous. I simply wonder that if by writing for the Yellow Jacket I will also become one of those school paper writers who are quietly dismissed and pitied as oblivious and amateur writers (oblivious to their amateurishness). Or, maybe that thought was unique to my mind.
Why do I hate reading the articles in the school newspaper so much?
I think it's because they sound just as if the writer were there talking to you. This may be a desirable attribute to some when they are consuming reading material, but if I want this, I can just go talk to someone. When I want to read about things at LeTourneau, I want to read poetry!
Oh, it's LeTourneau...
