I got a second interview with the Middle East Broadcasting Network. This time I met with the head of the department and the head of the Media Library (where I want to work). It went well, so hopefully I will get some good news.

I also interviewed with a broadcast news company who works independently with major news channels around the world. My friend Aaron, who I've known since college, got me the interview. He has been working there for a couple years, but he there all day and night, so they want to split his job in two.

The apartment search is not going very well. Everything is so expensive in DC! We might end up in another basement apartment.

I met with my academic adviser at UMD. She gave me some great news - I can take two classes at once (because each class leads into the next) and I will get in-state tuition regardless of where I live.
