Did I ever tell you that I was a DJ (Not like the loser that I dated and mentioned in my previous entry)? Probably not since this is my third entry and haven't disclosed anything about myself.
When I was in college I was a morning show intern which was so lame. They DJ's had such a fake dialogue...they just emoted these insanely happy personas when the mics were on and when they were off they were these miserable people.
Anyway...I did love the music aspect of radio. Keep in mind this was in the 90's when Pandora, IPods, and Sirius weren't around. I decided that I wanted to take a stab at a non super happy on air "personality".
I went through a some what rigorous process at my college to become a member of their famous radio station. I did it and had a blast.
You picked your time slot based on the music you would play. So R&B and Hip-Hop would be from 12-8pm Monday through Friday. Rock would be 9am-12pm and 8pm-3am. After 3am it was a free forum. I picked the 3am-6am shift. While I had a part time job. While I was still taking classes. Ms. Thang was a tired lady. I loved it though.
I would have "guests" come on who were usually my drunken friends. I had callers...usually they were creepy dudes but callers none-the-less.
