ACCOMPLISHMENT

THIS WEEK:


*This week has been filled with joy as I feel I've accomplished a lot in my promotions director position. We've been running the Titan Idol contest for the past 2 weeks on our small 200-Watt station and this morning I was really excited because we had the most callers in a matter of 3 hours than I've ever seen voting for their favorite contestent. The winner gets to sing the National Anthem at the Westminster College Dance Theatre Show next week! I was so excited that that many people called in! I created 3 new 30-second promos that play at the half hour mark with each of the 3 contestents singing. I made a sweeper promo and I created multiple on air promo cards for the DJ's to read during their shifts!

Poodle and I had our morning show and it went very well! Our chemistry is good together! We are both sarcastic, but it's really funny. I know we are doing well by the reaction of the audience. People will see me later and tell me what was their favorite part of the show that morning or they tell us we are really funny. I even had people tell me that they listened to a whole hour of our show last week! Now...come on, who listens and sits by the radio that long anymore? I'm excited because it helps to hear the audience reation so I know what to keep in the morning show and what to get rid of!

*We were sent an e-mail this morning saying that we saved the TUB! I mentioned what saving the Tub was in a previous blog! We DID it and I feel a lot of accomlishment from that as well! The new sign will be here in 4 to 6 weeks!


DANCE:

I've done a lot for dance this week in my public relations officer position! The show is next week!!!! I can't wait! I made the posters to hang up around town and on campus and they turned out beautiful! I made special invitations for the faculty on card stock, I've created the Titan Idol contest for the winner to sing at the show to get more people there, I placed 2 adds in our campus newspaper and I got the local paper to come and take pictures of our practice and to place a feature article about us, which has never been done before in the paper! I went out in the BLIZZARD this week and hung the posters around town! I am so excited cause I finished my dance last week and it is going to be HOT! It looks so good! It's hip-hop, but very theatrical! I choreographed part of a number, part of someone elses solo number and my number and I'm so excited for the show! We have all varieties of dancing and the show will be great! It's next week, here at Westminster College in Orr Auditorium next Thursday and Friday, march 10th and 11th at 8PM, and Saturday March 12th at 2PM. If you get a chance, PLEASE COME! A former student and Reporter for WENY in Elmira New York, my friend Melissa Butulis is coming as well as my friend Sarah Bowers, Associate Producer at WTAE in Pittsburgh! Dance will be my life pretty much this week! I will be making promos and promo cards for the show as well!



*I will be attending the West Pacs job fair next week in Pittsburgh! Graduation is creeping up quickly and I need a J-O-B! I got into grad school, so I need a job in Pittsburgh! I'm hoping to set up interviews for the week of the 21st since we have spring break!

*The CD right now that I keep playing over and over is Joss Stone's new album..."Mind, Body, and Soul!" I love artists that have soul and can really sing and she can! It's great! She's about to come out with her third single from this album, "Spoiled," which is a great track on the CD!




ARTICLE:
I have to make a comment about the Bachelorette this week! I am so MAD! I watched TV for 3 hours and she still didn't choose anyone! I don't think the network was preapared for her to turn the guy she picked down too! I am in broadcasting and I know the 3 hours was for ratings sake, but I was still mad as a viewer!!!! I guess no one is good enough for Jen Shaft! It makes me not want to watch the show ANYMORE!
