As a child my life ambitions were that of the ordinary; Fireman, Policeman and Stuntman. As I moved through school my life choices became a little bit more serious ie an actor or a musician. But now halfway through my high school years, the future looks more daunting than it ever has before. There are so many plausible career options to choice from, things I want to be include a musician, but that is slowly turning into hobby rather than a career goal, a film critic, one of the reasons I started this blog was to brush up on my writing skills. One of the options looking more like happening everyday is becoming a chef. I love to cook and try new foods, being a chef is definitely something I look forward to looking into as I start college and university. But one of my goals that really could happen in the not so distant future if my dream to become a Radio DJ.
I recently joined my local radio station to present a show with one of my good mates. We do a 1 hour show on a Thursday from 5-6. Its not the biggest break ever, but its a start on the ladder to success. Sitting in the obviously budgeted studio is such a release from the pressures of the modern world. Playing whatever song suits you best for the mood your'e in is a feeling like none other. For that hour or so your'e on air all the problems you have in life seem to Dissapear in to the night sky. I'm currently training to become a better DJ and to learn about copyrighting issues that are an ever recurring problems to the radio. I will be back on air in a grand some of 6 weeks to carry on with what I love to do. Becoming a radio DJ seriously seems to be a plausible career choice. But whilst I'm young I shall continue to aim higher.
Great post! It's good to have an idea as to where you are headed. The fact that you are now realising potential career paths for you is a sign that you are growing. I wish you luck! And I'll catch your radio show as soon as we get the chance to keep still for a day...hehehe.
