No longer a reject, or a Cal student

I'm sure no one will be too disappointed to learn that my identity - Daily Cal Reject - is no longer (entirely) accurate. Since this blog consists of a single nearly two-year-old post, I doubt any one became too attached to me as a writer who failed twice to gain employment at The Daily Californian, UC Berkeley's independent student newspaper.

However, it is not misleading that I wish to continue writing under this name. Although the sports desk took pity on me by offering me a job as the Cal women's water polo team's beat reporter, I was still rejected twice - once from copy and once from photo. Goes to show that once again, third time's the charm.

Since I did not provide an introduction when I originally created this blog, I will attempt to do so now. More has changed than the status of my blogging identity. Last Sunday, I graduated from Cal with a BA in music. I have the month of June programmed, but the rest is wide open. I will spend the next week preparing for a month in the Big Apple studying voice and opera intensively at a conservatory. I'll spend a few days in Washington, D.C. before returning to the Bay Area to seek employment. I hope my experiences in NYC and my job search inspire some lively posts. I love writing about sports, but don't worry - I will bring you more than the latest on collegiate women's water polo. I plan to comment on a wide range of topics, that reflect my interests and knowledge.
