It's Spring time in D.C. - and the weather is awful! I've been sick for a week now - and it doesn't seem to be letting up anytime soon, unfortunately.

This past Monday, my Journalism Seminar met with ED HENRY!

He was probably one of the funniest speakers we've had, yet! It was such a humbling experience listening to his story. He was also in the Washington Semester Program, except he didn't return home for his senior year - instead he stayed in D.C. and worked for

Jack Anderson!

He eventually took enough classes to receive a degree, however he now works for CNN as the White House correspondent - and it's impossible to say if he would be where he is now without having worked so hard as an intern under Anderson.

He jokingly poked fun at multiple students during his lecture - especially one female who was late to class. For the first time this semester, I didn't even WANT to look at my iPhone, laptop, speak with my best friend - none of that. I was completely focused on Ed Henry, and he was absolutely incredible.

He gave me a lot of motivation that I seemed to be losing a little bit of recently due to the daily hustle and bustle of the city and commuting! He gave me a bit of a recharge and a bunch of inspiration to keep me going through this last month!

WOW...only one more month in this incredible city - how upsetting!
