Do you wanna see your name immortalised in print or video?Do you wanna know what it's like to be a journalist?Do you wanna have as much fun as those guys in the above pic?

FYI,I'm the guy 2nd from the right,so you'll know this info's legit.Today's Star newspaper has a page calling for fresh faces to join The Star's BRATs Young Journalist Programme.It's a four day camp,with multiple activities planned that enchance your journalistic skills in four major areas:writing,blogging,photography and video-making.You'll be in good hands,as the R.Age team themselves will be the ones divulging expert advice and stuff like that.

There will be 3 camps this year,namely Penang: March 13-16,Kuching: June 5-8 and Kuantan Sept 4-7.In your respective camps,you'll be taken around the place and discover things you won't find in those goddamn tourist books.
