Today is the last Thursday of my internship and my Brazil story was pushed back a week. Through one of my other sources, I found a Brazilian man with plans of moving back home in October, but he keeps flaking out on interviews. I've called him three times a day for the past week or so and left messages on both his work and home phones. He's pretty much impossible to get a hold of.
Knowing it would make my story that much better to start with an anecdotal lead involving this guy, I'm really hoping I can interview him before tomorrow. Besides that, I feel like I've written a pretty informative article that wouldn't be bad the way it is.
Today I'm driving around Woburn taking pictures of every school in town (12 to be exact) for the back to school issue coming out in a couple of weeks. It's not exactly the most exciting thing in the world, but it's easy.
If lady luck is on my side, I should be getting a call back from this source. If not, I gave it my all, tried my best and am proud of the article that came out.

If you have time, it's always best to try and get the interview in person. It's harder for them to walk away when you're standing right there, and it's usually a better interview. Hope it works out and look forward to seeing the story!
