WHAT: first meeting of the year for the journalism staff
RATING: pg
Penny had been feeling the weight of her missing sister rather heavily this week. She wasn't really sure why this week. Maybe it was the longer they were apart the more it hurt. But either way it wasn't making her very happy. So she was extra thrilled that it was time for the first meeting of the year for the journalism club. Sure, she had pushed for it to be a class, but Uncle Leo said there just wasn't enough interest in it at the moment. So Penny was keeping it up herself, no help from Professors or anything. It was hard but it was so worth it.
It was about ten till four when most of the staff from last year showed up. A couple people had graduated, but that was no big deal. They had new people. Pen was just really hoping Daphne would show up. It was great to have the Brits here... even if Roxanne was a bit grumpy at times. Pen didn't really wait for four o'clock to start the meeting. New people would be filtering in and she would catch them up as they came. Most of the stuff she was discussing was for the people who were past members of staff anyway.
"So I don't really have a go-get-em speech this year. Not yet anyway. I'm just going to jump into it so we can't get started. Basically we need to follow the same path as last year's first issue. Summer wrap up, cover the student clubs, stuff like that. I know we lost a couple of writers, but we're getting a couple new ones to fill the slots. I want to make space on the first few pages for a couple stories about the exchange program. We need running columns on that."
