Press Pass

This was so incredible! One of my professors sent me to the Capitol to do a story on the Senate commendation of a boy who won the world championship in soap box derby racing. It was a feel-good, cute human interest story and seemed pretty interesting. My friend and classmate, Jacki Raithel, also came to take video.

When we got to the Capitol, we met up with Sen. Houck's (who did the commendation) aide. Then we found out that we were going to sit at the press table in the Senate chamber. It was so awesome! I felt very official and like a real journalist.

I love it when you share this information with us; it's so exciting to see you live your dream! Again, I'm so proud of you and I can't wait to be able to tell people that I knew you before you became world famous. :)

Looks like it won't be long before you are sitting at the Press Table and waiting for those interviews. Lisa Ling had better watch out....

Love you,
