CLASSIC WORK ORDEAL WRAPS...

Hmmn...so from whence i was saying, the template for publication, remember? Funmi walks into the office this beautifully bright Monday morning, all ecstatic and in high spirit (she seems to have put behind her the activities of the past week over the weekend). Just when she is trying to settle in, another tasking, time bound assignment is thrown her way with expectation of immediate response. She swings into action and begins to put together yet another article to be published. The office is so tensed with the inflow of clients and voices everywhere(picture a typical media outfit with everyone talking at almost the same time)so Funmi is confused and losses concentration. Her heart races as time is no more. Then she is reminded that the publication to house the article is already being mass produced and the article is yet unwritten. Funmi races to stop the production, only to be told that the article meant for the first page of the eight-page publication could not be accommodated on the said page as production had gone past the first page of the publication. A disturbed Funmi was taken aback and sort to get the article into the publication at all cost so she began campaigning for the second, third and fourth pages up till the seventh in which the article was finally accommodated and production was concluded. Still in a state of dilemma, Funmi settles at her desk in awe and tries to fathom what had just befallen her, then she suddenly recalls the event of the past week and springs out of her seat, reaching for the newspaper that was expected to publish the article from the past week. She is seen searching frantically through the pages of the newspaper to see if the article got published (everyone around stares in shock). Wow! Lucky her, there it is on a full page spread. Hmmmmn! All tension eases as she takes an early morning break. lol

JOURNAL OF A JOURNALIST NEXT DOOR ... September 27th, 2024... Calm before the Storm!

Friday was one of those rare, calm days in my world of Corporate Communications. It’s not often that I get a day with fewer meetings, but when it happens, I know it’s the perfect opportunity to catch up on all the news stories waiting to be polished and published. With the university’s biggest event just around the corner, this quiet felt like the calm before the storm. The first half of the day was spent at my desk, immersed in edits. It’s funny how even on a less busy day, the work piles up in different forms. A colleague sent over a draft press release that needed sharpening, while another forwarded an article that just didn’t have the right tone yet. The joy, though, is in refining those pieces—finding the right words that will capture the essence of the university's achievements. As the minutes rolled by, I ticked off one task after another, sipping soda and enjoying the steady hum of a day. In the back of my mind, I knew this won’t last long—the preparations for the upcomi...
