dextr0us's Journal: not famous, and glad.

This may come as a shock to a lot of you.... i am glad that i'm not a singer. you might say to your self

"self, but you're not a singer."

and you would be correct. I'm about to let all of you that read my journal (aka, probably 1 person) in on a semi big secret. In 9th grade, someone scouted me somehow. I think it was from a church choir or something. Anyways, eventually in 11th grade, i almost had a manager... and was going to do the music thing. WOW.... i'm glad i didnt. I just watched the finish of making of the band, and i know its semi distorted, but i doubt that making it in the music industry is easy. They said i had talent, i thought i could dance, but i'm pretty sure that i would end up all broke, and not end up an 18 year old junior in college.

Everyone looks up to stars, and says "wow they're so awesome," but i look at them and say "wow, they're just like me, but people watch them on tv." I would never want to be a j-lo (because i'm not a girl, but you get the point.) never being able to go anywhere would suck, although the money, and the free clothes would probably balance it out.

My ultimate goal now is cable. Channel one is probably out of the picture (for now, dont think that i'm going to stop). I really want to end up in tv, in front, or behind, the camera. Working for TechTv, would be perfect, as well as G4, and MTV/MuchMusic news would be awesome. Those are my end goals. I'm completley prepared to bust my ass and work behind the camera in edit bays for long hours, and work for whoever i need to (within reason) to get this done. Internships will be my friend for a semester. I'll keep a day job at some rinkydink tech firm or something, and intern at TV stations. Writing isn't out of the picture either, but communications is where i want to be. My brother would be so pissed to hear me say that. He works [obligitory plug http://www.mmaweekly.com] as a sports broadcaster, and it sucks for him right now. He also works for the UFC, as their ring reporter (ryan bennett, you'll know him if you're into ufc)
    Marriage will come someday, but its not a big priority.

    You now have my life plan for the next little while. I'm also planning to go on an LDS mission, and graduate from school, so yeah.
