What I learned from Fly


            I think I would be lying if I said that I was not nervous going into this interview with a real reporter. Theron Fly is someone who has already graduated from college and is now working in the field of his interest, so yes, going into this interview was a little intimidating for me. My interview with Theron Fly was definitely an interesting one. While asking the questions, Fly would give me an answer that I would be able to relate to in some sort of way when it came to certain situations and characteristics that he expressed about himself. Each question took about five to six minutes and after hitting it off so well, I felt like we were on the edge of getting off topic a little bit because we had so much in common. Fly really took me to school when he broke down the importance of college experience and time management. My freshman year of college was a total wake up call. I did not realize how effective timing was until I received my first assignment for the school newspaper, but Fly’s story is different, he recalls not knowing the importance of timing until he actually graduated from college and started his career. Fly says he finds work related issues to be less stressful than in the past. He has become adjusted to the field of journalism due to the open arms and warm welcomes that he received from the veterans in the newsroom.
