Be on the radio

every girl by lilwayne31

My husband and I did some volunteer work, and it was so fun! We also got interviewed together (Ha! That was cool!) by a DJ from one of the popular radio stations around here with regards to what we were doing. It was a cute experience, and a bit ironic since we met in a speech class years back, and there we were practicing our speech impromptu style :D

....’kay so not an incredible amount of effort.

But and incredibly amount of overcoming nerves. Actually, The only reason I went along with it to begin with is because my mum promised me I could redecorate the bathroom however I wanted, if I did (it’s gonna be orange. I don’t care what anyone says. I will have an orange bathroom.)

And yeah, It wasn’t live, and I had a script. But it was still scary for me. (especially seeing as I hate my voice SO much.)

Actually it was just for a radio advert.
Because the BBC (It was springwatch. Bill Oddie came and everything. XD) came to my area to plant some plants and give us some beetles and shit.

So I just had to talk about it. It was on BBC london 94.9….

I got to go to the station, which was pretty cool. I saw the BBC news studio, and almost walked up there when they were filming.
If anyone saw a disembodied finger float around on the backround of the news recently…. that was me. XD

so yeah….

P.S: You know, one of mt ‘things’ should be to stop ending every single entry with ‘so yeah….’ XD.

I guess it is poetic justice, irony or maybe karma that I ended up working in radio. As a kid, I would call the same radio station every fifteen minutes (in the business, we call that a quarter-hour) and try to disguise my voice while requesting the same song over and over, until the station finally played it!

As far as a career goes… radio beats the heck out of a real job!

I’ve been told many times that I have a good voice for radio, so I had better get on there and see.

Did an hour today, t’was fun and improvised :) hopefully we’ll get a weekly slot

Should be having a go next wednesday :)

Used to be on the air, but was more into broadcast engineering. I enjoy fixing the transmitters more :)

i was in junior high, and i got through to answer a harry potter trivia question. my prize was a backstreet boys book. not fantastic, but good experience.
