Bend it like ... Bernstein?

On a positive note, I'm glad that everyone here on the paper is so versatile and flexible.
It doesn't matter if you write for Metro, you can still write a movie review for The Mix. You could be writing the editorial one night and writing a Viewpoints column the next. It's all about mixing it up and taking turns.
Everyone up here is learning every day; it can only help us to interchange our writing roles and try new things.
We've been trying a lot of new things this semester. This blog, for one, is a step in the right, more-relevant direction. Instead of just sitting here, denying the decline in kids our age reading the paper, we have kept up with the times and attempted to keep our readership interested.
It's exciting, and it can only get better from here.
As the weeks start to fly by, it's starting to get comfortable. We're starting to get to know our routines and starting to re-ignite our bonds, in the newsroom and out.
We've added new members to the team at our interest meetings and that just makes me widen my smile because I know that the best is yet to come.
