First.

Tonight I finished my first journalism piece.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
And I drank my first latte. (I'm not feeling this whole coffee thing....how could this stuff smell SO good yet taste so not-as-good-as-it-smells?...)

Here is the opener to my article:

Be astounded as sights of miraculous color, modern buildings of prevailing architecture, and stunning gardens pass before your eyes. Cultures of all diversity and expanse have contributed to make this event perfectly exquisite. The gentle smell of fresh flowers wafts past you along with seamless scenery of gardens displaying un-believable complexity. Aromas of savory and unconventional delicacies attract your senses. Enticing paths of intricate beauty into this innovative and striking world are leading you. Welcome to the Floriade 2012!


Are you "romanticized" yet?? 
Oh how I love writing.
