The Rodman Blog!
The Rodmans have a blog. Be afraid.
Welcome to the Rodman Blog! The exclamation point is part of the name. It's not a very exciting name, I know. Anyway, if you're here, I imagine you have at least a passing interest in us Rodmans, or at least Adam or Lara. We're not really blogging these days, but it'll stay up in case either of us in inspired. In the mean time, you can check out our many travel blogs (located conveniently on our sidebar), the latest being from Connie and Adam's trip to China. Oh, Rodmans.
My dad had wanted to see all the DTH stories I've written this far, so here they are (I'm just coming back from the DTH now -- I wrote my last story really fast, only took me about 90 minutes, and I'm pretty happy about it). Anyway:
New undergraduates savor first collegiate weekend - This is for that stupid freshman series I hated so much. It was the first week, so there's no stories on backlog, so me and Emily were working everyday for quite a few hours to pump these out. It's all fluff, no real content.
Specter of weight gain haunts freshmen, women - Really, no shit? Stupid title, stupid article. Another bunch of fluff.
Website eases collegiate laundry woes - The concept is slightly cool, the story is not. It's just not that interesting to write an entire story on, especially when it's the first week of school and no one has actually DONE their laundry yet. But Ryan wanted to raise publicity before anyone knew about it -- guess that's why it was on, page, like, 12.
A fiesta without borders - So this one was sprung on me at the last minute, and I was spirited away to Raleigh. But I'm actually pretty pleased with how it came out. It's an event story, so it's by definition fluff, but I think it's fairly good fluff, and at least colorful (that's the big word at Features now).
But yeah, those are all the articles published so far. If you want to see all 22 articles I've written for the DTH (the number's actually more like 45, but a few don't show on the website, and a bunch were tab stories, which we don't put up), you can go to www.dthonline.com and search for my name.
But that's it. My international TAs will be running tomorrow or Monday, hopefully pretty high.
And the NATURALS are playing tonight. ROCK ON!!!!
