When I grow up....

“ I want to be a news lady”( Entertainment Tonight was my favorite show as a kid). That is the first thing I can ever remembering wanting to be. My mom says I used to want to be a vet, but I cant recall that one. But I doubt she’s lying so, I guess. You know how when you’re a kid you want to grow up and be something awesome? Do you remember what those occupations were? Are you doing that now? Are you even on the road to doing that now? I’m going to give you a list of all the jobs I wanted/want to do that I sooo am not doing:

As mentioned before, sometime around the ages of 5-7 years of age, I wanted to be a news anchor.


High School- Freshman and Sophomore year I wanted to be a band director ( said the band geek).

Junior Year- A commercial advertiser ( Because I did and still do have great ideas)

Senior year- Psychologist. But that dream was deferred because I had a terrible teacher who knew crap about the human brain. It’s not her fault…to some degree. You know how in high school there are those BS classes you take just to pass? Well, that what this class was to other students. But since I really wanted to know that stuff, I was disappointed in how things turned out.

College- When I got to college it was either radio/television or marketing. Once I saw the math and business requirements for marketing I threw that major the deuce!!! I decided, that if all I like to do is watch tv and listen to music, might as well work with it! So, I went back to my dream as a 5-7 year old as a news anchor.

Junior year of college- Once I realized that news sucked and working every day reporting sad and depressing news, is no better than a 9-5, it was too late to change my major. But my passion soon transferred to videos. I was inspired by one Kanye West song to direct a video and that has been my dream since...

Senior Year of college- I was suppose to direct a video for a close friend, but after some fellow students who promised to help backed out, I lost all faith in relying on people. So I decided I can start out with documentaries (which can be done with one person or a whole team). I figure I can start there and parlay that into music. I would be damnned if I begged someone to help me with anything ever again(which can be a huge handicap).

***Here are a few bonus jobs I seriously dreamed of having in college:

A role on Reno 911
An actress on Mad TV
Missy Elliots or Ludacris’s hype chic


So now my hobbies includes music videos and documentaries. I still have a 9-5, but my bills gotta get paid, right?

Oh and my new dream job:

A panelist on The View. (Yeah, I effing love that show)
