Secret Ambitions…what’s yours?
Just wanted to share a few of my secret ambitions/fantasies.
#1 I’ve always wanted to be a DJ. I’ve tried a little something something on the ones and twos once (ah, you like the use of my lingo?) but want to get back at it. Know what, I think I might be pretty good at it once I get it down. I have a A LOT of respect for DJs, the really good ones, who spin on vinyl. No disrespect to the new era of CD-DJs but there’s nothing like watching a DJ work two turntables, swapping out records left and right and not missing a beat. But knowing what records costs, I think I’ll have to learn on CD or go 100% computerized. Yeah I’m sellin’ out, what of it! lol
#2 Background singer. Music genre of choice would be anything with soul: R&B, Soul, Zouk, Kompa Direk, Soca, Reggae, Salsa (I’d have to learn my parts in Spanish because everything I know I learned in 5th grade and it’s not much), whatever I can groove to. I’m kinda shy so I don’t think I could be a lead singer, but there seems to be a certain vibe about being on stage as a performer. And nothing beats the energy of live music. So a background singer is the perfect solution, just hang out in the back and jam!
#3 A professional ballroom dancer. Ever watch those competitions on PBS? Well I absolutely LOVE them and can’t get enough. They’re amazing to watch especially the Latin dancers. I’d definitely dance in the Latin division. Smooth, jive, yeah those will work quite nicely as well. But the Waltz, you can keep that to yourself unless it’s a modernized version. And the outfits, killer!
So that’s pretty much it. Randomly felt like sharing, but this is an open discussion people! Share back your secret ambitions, dreams careers, bucket list goals. I know I’m not the only one that has them.
After becoming an undercover fan of Dancing with the Stars, I would so love to take a Latin Dance class. My reasons are twofold to become a skilled dancer and to get an amazing dancer’s body.
Ha! I love it!! I can SO see you being a deejay!! As for me, I’m supposed to be a word-famous choreographer, but somehow got bitten by the Writing bug and got sidetracked in a beautiful way. My other secret ambition…um, would have to tell you that one offline
Secret ambition…the first one that comes to mind is an exotic dancer like belly dancing, not how strippers are demeaned now, but the uber femininity and sensual aspect of exotic dance. Veiled, mysterious, intriguing, alluring and DIVINE. Yes…that’s it
I took a couple of dance classes and really enjoyed them. I didn’t enjoy how ridiculous I looked in the mirror when I saw myself… but they were fun. Ballroom dancing seems like a blast, and I LOVE music! Secret Ambitions should not be so secret!
I long to be a writer. Like a real, published author. I’m still honing my skills and talent. I’m alright… not awful but not spectacular, either. 2010 will be another year giving the old shot at it!
