The nervousness of trying something new can come often in life. Especially when you’re going 45 minutes down the street to stay at a hotel taken over by teenage kids, and going to classes you know very little about and very few people in. However, it can be a memorable experience and an opportunity to learn something new while showing your creativity. Not to mention, a chance to make new friends. Although many people were nervous, they will leave with more knowledge and a new outlook on journalism.
Maleah Downton, 12, talks about being a newbie at gloria Shields, "I was really nervous because I’m a first timer and I’m going to be a leader next year and I’m surrounded by so many experienced ppl which made me a little intimidated. My nervousness was a sold 5 out of 10 bc I was both nervous and excited." Downton said.
Nadia Sanburn, 11, "I was most nervous about coming in because I didn’t really know what to expect; it's like I went in blind. I’ve never been to the Gloria shields workshop before and I couldn’t really ask anyone how they felt about it because they had already graduated. but I've loved it so far" Sanburn Said.
