Why Radio is Life

Finally found a passion

Why Radio is Life
WiseGeek

Ahh-- at last. Sophomore year of college. Finishing up all your "Gen Eds" and officially starting with your major. Sophomore year is exceptionally special time. You are finally considered part of your major by officially applying, and you have to start thinking about what field of your major you want to be in.

For example, I am a Communications and Digital Media (CDM) major, with a concentration in broadcasting and production, with a minor in history. Being a communications major means lot and lots of options, and fields to go into. Saying that, the concentration I chose was broadcasting and production. Basically meaning TV and/or radio. One thing I have always had a passion for is editing and cameras. I never liked being in front of the camera, seeing as i'm extremely shy. Being behind the scenes is the place for me.

This year I started my audio production class, and I can honestly say it's put me on the path to my calling. Radio. This year I found out how much I truly love music and radio talk shows. I found out I loved to be a DJ, and I love to mix sounds together. I'm also in the process of successfully becoming a talk show host or co-host with a few of my friends.

I am truly blessed. The school I attend for my major has opened a brand new state-of-the-art building for communications majors with a real radio station and an advanced broadcasting studio. A couple of my friends and I after a lot of consideration have decided to be a part of our radio station and have our own show. We don't exactly have a name, but we don't exactly need one either. I gave myself the name Aweyooo on the Radiyooo. I think it's cute and I love it, it has a special meaning behind it and that's all that matters. We are currently just playing music, but every week we are speaking more and more each time. My goal is to have a full out radio show by the end of my senior year at my university.

I just really love radio.

It is truly my passion, and I couldn't be happier.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
