Taking a break

It's the most wonderful time of year: break.

While we at the Collegian love our jobs (seriously), we never complain about the end of a semester. And what a semester it was.

-- Penn State heads to the Rose Bowl after the most exciting football season since 2005.
-- State College hosted 1.5 riots.
-- The most exciting presidential campaign of our lifetime came to a close with the election of Barack Obama.
-- The Collegian goes visual and produces 70 videos!

Not one of the above items is less exciting than the others.

But finals are just about over for just about everyone (Sorry, sis. See you at home!), and it's time to kick back, relax, and forget about work, right?

Well, as it turns out, someone forgot to tell the news to stop and wait for us to come back. This isn't so much a break as it is a chance to work from home.

Check the Collegian Web site frequently throughout break, because we'll continue to work, even if we don't have a newspaper to print.

As we get closer to Jan. 1, keep an eye out for our Rose Bowl edition home page. Our hard-working Web and football staffs and senior photographer Nathan Smith will be keeping you up to date with all of the articles, videos and blog posts you can take.

My New Year's resolution is to blog at least 10 times more than last semester. Shouldn't be too hard. Be sure to stay part of the conversation.
