I’ve been figuring out the exact date when Ms. Bea Beluan texted me regarding my internship. I reminisce the moment when I am screaming out loud at home because finally I have an ojt site. FINALLY! I am very happy, as in VERY HAPPY upon reading Ms. Bea’s text saying “Congratulations! You can have your internship with us.” I am speechless! I dream of working in a magazine and now my dream has now turned into reality. Plus! it is a travel magazine. I always wanted to travel and wanted to try something new. So here I am at SIDETRIP TRAVEL MAGAZINE! Giving me glimpse of the real world where I wanted to be at future. And I admit it, it’s not easy!

It’s already my 3^rd week here at Sidetrip. I am really having fun and gaining so much knowledge from them. The editorial team had a meeting yesterday April 27, 2010 regarding the upcoming issue which is the ROADTRIP issue. The editorial team consists of Ms. Sol Racelis the managing editor, alumni of St.Scholastica’s College Ms. Bea Beluan the editorial assistant and the newly hired travel essentials head Ms. Mia Enriquez. Every little detail or information is discussed during the meeting, the angle of the article, format, and even the advertisements that would be pitch in each section of the magazine. At the back of my mind saying, oohh,its such a long process! But it is such a good experience to sit down with them in a meetingJ
