Composer –

Education & training

· To be a composer you need to have “basic” music skills, composers need to learn how to play at least one instrument it is useful to know several. Classical composers may require knowledge of other languages. But im looking to be a regular composer.

· Many colleges offer a music program. But most of them require a audition. There are no requirements to try out. Most institutions have electronic studios, providing opportunities to work with musical groups and to have compositions performed.

· It takes four year to get the necessary training. But it all depends on Witch College you go to cause most of them require 4 years but there are a couple that have 2 years. I would like to go to the four year college because I would have more experience and more training then the two years. Which means I would have a higher chance in being a composer other than someone who went to a two year college.

· All the expenses and fees for college are $32,470 per year. Which is kind of crazy but I’ll have my parents pay for all of my expenses and fees until I get a job.

Cosmetologists –

i would work I would be doing in this job would be cutting, styling and coloring hair. & doing makeup.

The full time wage would be $29,580. But you get tips for every hair you style.

A day in the life is opening up the salon, then getting all your materials ready and then just waiting for your customers. At the end of the day you would half to count your tips then you half to file paper work & close up the shop and make sure everything is put away neatly.

The things that interest me in a composer was that I love to work with music. & you can work with pretty much anything that inspires you and you can work with upcoming artist. Iv learned that you do work all the time. & all day. I don’t like that so much. What surprise me about the job is that you get paid that much. But I guess it’s a living. I don’t like that you half to work all day. And all night and you become a workaholic.
