Breeze Publishing played host to three intrepid Trafalgar Castle students as part of their job shadow day. The three young ladies; Tatiana Bean, Bronwen Presutti and Jocelyn Zhang, spent the day learning about the publishing business. They learned the basics of how to formulate questions for an interview and how to create an article. Then they learned how to create a layout for their article with accompanying artwork.
The girls’ first assignment was to create an article about their ideal teen space. They all had one thing in common – it’s all about the entertainment.
Presutti’s ideal teen space: “It would include pale blue walls, a stereo, a desk, a bookshelf and a projector. I would have a big black stereo that would have the ability to play CDs, records and my iPod music. This is the most important item in the room because of my love for music.”
Bean’s ideal teen space: “It would be a place of relaxation, where I could devote myself to my hobbies and de-stress after the school week. It would have a wall of floor-to-ceiling bookshelves in dark wood tones, stocked with my literary favourites. This would be my first priority, followed closely by a sturdy desk. When I’m not reading books, I dream of writing them.”
Zhang’s ideal teen space: “It would have puzzle piece mats to cover the floor. The mats would be apple green and light blue. I could sit on the mats while studying. Also, the residence girls could gather to play games or cards on the mats. I believe the bright colour would add vitality to my room. A big screen TV, with the lights off, would create the atmosphere of a cinema.”
Other wish-list items include DVD collections, Xbox, Wii and, of course, the time to enjoy them all.
