Can You Turn Orange Into Green?

My first story of my beat has been written, emailed to Prof. Davis and returned to me.  I would say for a first story it was a "minor" success.  I feel like I haven't done reporting in so long so I am finally starting to get into the swing of things again.  Being abroad for a semester and doing very little interviewing and REAL story writing really put me off track.  I ended up talking to some interesting people for my recycling story, including a few students on campus, employees of People's Place, members of the SU Sustainability Department and a representative from OCRRA.  All in all, it's done and over with and my next story is in the works. (much more exciting and with a twist!)  I will also attempt to improve my blogging skills as my stories improve too !! :)
