Going on his first year of newspaper, Ian enters the room and sits down in his rickety grey chair. Taking a sip of his black coffee, Ian sighs and gets ready to begin his 9-5 job in the cubicle. Work ends, and Ian takes the bus to his apartment in the inner city. Trudging up the stairs his mind wanders to a happier place. His empty apartment is the only comfort he has. looking over the smoggy skyline he thinks back to the only reason he began his journalism job in the first place. Following in spiderman’s footsteps, he’s decided to begin his journalism career his junior year.
![Eli Ruhala, sophomore: [My hat] kind of represents my natural side. l like to go hiking and stuff and exploring a lot. The hat itself was inspired by my brother, my brother and I use to wear cowboy hats wherever we went a lot so it’s suppose to look roughly like a cowboy hat. For the cowboy hat itself I used fabric stiffener and had to soak the canvas in fabric stiffener and mold it into a cowboy hat... it took about three hours.](https://theredledger.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Screen-Shot-2015-10-01-at-9.24.44-AM.png)
