Associate news editor finally free from basement trenches, will actually really miss this place

2 months ago | thedailytexan.com | Ren Leija

I truly have no idea how I ended up at the Texan — it honestly feels like a fluke. I had no journalism experience in high school, nor considered it before college. I spent the first semester of my freshman year in urban studies classes, and I only applied here in my second semester on a whim, just because one of my friends told me they were applying. Sorry to that friend, lol. In an alternate universe, we got to do this together. When I was hired, I was in complete shock. Was this a prank?
