My future job

 

It’s strange to write about my future job because I study musical composition, and music it’s something that I’ve always done. I  don’t remember dreaming about doing music, because it’s been there always, but I think that I dream about travel a lot playing my songs in little theaters. I have a band, so we always dream about that: gigs in beautiful places around the world, meeting interesting people, and making good music. Of course the salary it’s always a problem, musician don’t earn that much, but if we can make music that people really like, so we have a chance of making some money…despite that, I think that musician don’t become musicians because of the money. For example, I don’t remember dreaming about being a Beatle and saying “Wow, I’m going to buy a mansion doing this!”, instead, I dreamed about doing really good music. I know some classmates that dreamed about being Beethoven, and no one seemed to think about how they’re going to make some money writing romantic music, but they were happy anyway.

In terms of my career, I don’t want to make a PhD or something like that. After seven years i’m tired of going to classes and think about contemporary music.
