So this past week I went into Z95.5 for my (at least) weekly visit, but this time, as desired, I pushed things along a bit! I spoke LIVE! It was the first time I had been left to make up a decision about what I wanted to say! Anthony literally left the room and simply says to me, "I'm gonna let you do your thing, TALK!". And I did! :)
I had to announce the song 'S&M' by Rihanna for the High 5 at 9. In the song she sings "those chains and whips excite me." So, to announce it I got all into in and professional and just managed to pull out, from somewhere in my lungs "Next up on the countdown taking the number 3 spot is Rihana with 'S&M'. If you haven't seen this video yet you've GOTTA check it out! It's up on our web page at Z955.net, it's almost as exciting as those chains and whips!" It's safe to say that I left Z that night feeling very accomplished!
It gets better:
The next day in school, I went to get math help from my teacher Mr. Noyes (he knows I have an internship at Z). Now imnagine my surprise when I tried to start speaking to him and he cut's me off with this, "Hang on, before you talk lemme say something. Last night I was driving home from the Senior meeting and I turned on the radio, tuned to Z95.5 because I always try to hear you but have never caught you..." (I saw what was coming) "Oh God..." I mumbled. He continued, "Now imagine my surprise when I finally hear you and you're talking about chains and whips on the radio! And I'm thinking, 'No way is one of my students talking about chains and whips!" It was a little awkward, but mostly funny, and hey, it was my job to say what I said and I still think that I did a good job!
