I'd like to say that I'm prepared to dive into some awesome career with guns blazing. I'd like to say that I know precisely what I'm good at and that I've harnessed the skills needed to be a "go-getter" and to take the classes I need to be a _______________. Truth is, I have no clue. Journalism? Yeah I would love it. To work for a magazine and write about what a girl needs to be ultimately the most attractive being inside and out. Or, what Alexander McQueen's team is sending down the runway these days. Perhaps I should just make a list of possibilities to organize things a bit? Okay, here goes:
1. Musician
2. Journalist (fashion or in the media)
3. Wardrobe stylist (personal or on-set)
4. Publicist
5. Writer
6. Executive Producer for a live broadcasting telecast
7. Actor
8. "Person who styles mannequins in retail store"
9. Buyer for department stores
10. Music Coordinator (for film)
Alright, that's a good start non? The list is in no particular order after the first three. I sense a pattern which mostly involves the creative mind mixed with a little concrete, but nothing that guarantees a big fat paycheck at the end of the day. That's because I've given up on those terms. Being in college, and in certain classes I took for the sake of taking, I've realized that I will not survive in an environment that I do not love completely and wholly. No, most people don't love class, and I am in no way different. What I am trying to apply is that if I took something for the money I know I'd receive, I'd be miserable and drown. Let me have my piano, a good fashion magazine, a well put-together outfit, good people, or a great movie....something to eat, and a roof. I'm set. I need my creative outlet like most people, but to build a future around that is something else entirely, but I'm committed to the idea.
I'm just talking.
