Your one shot at the big time

[Argyle]

First post on the DT board! Hell yeah!

Anyhow... Bunch of dreams of course! Being a millionaire, ruling the world and so forth.
But the one most likely to be achieved: Playing at a festival the size of Wacken or so.
I dunno if I'm perverted somehow, but I get my kicks from performing. We've had a couple of gigs with my band for audiences of a hundred or so, but I wanna see them come in thousands!
HEAR THEM SCREAM MY NAME! Nah, not that, but anyhow, y'all get the idea.

(oh yeah, and after I started writing the lyric for our band, a bit of singing along would be nice to see someday also )

@argyle: welcome to this board, and congratulations for choosing my thread for your first post.

does "maailman" translate to "mailman"?

and is anyone else dispeased by the fact that without postcounts we can no longer tell the total newbies from the partial newbies?

 

[Argyle]

Nope, "maailman" is world's, in english.
Sort of an inside joke... The exact translation would be something like "The World's Wienersnchitzel".

And about that total newbieism. At least I was honest about it. Had to start posting one of these days...

So, all you newbies, stand proud amongst the other boarders, there is nothing to be afraid of!

i'm bumping this thread, because i need the input. please write, tell me what's your great ambition, and how you think you're going to achieve it.

 

[Human Desert]

Hey, kids, do you like violence?

YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!

My logical dream is simply to be happy someday.
And an illogical dream is that i could save all animals in the world so that they'd never have to feel any pain.

The main one would be finding a woman stupid and desperate enough to love me, and then hoping to buggery that I love her back. Only imagine it said a bit more romantically. Then come the extras, like having a nice big house in the (preferably foreign) country, secluded from others and isolated (but not too isolated) from civilisation, having a well-paying job that I don't mind doing, speaking the language fluently, etc. All the old, specific dreams (become footballer; become rock star; become spy; become astronaut) have gone, once I realised they wouldn't happen.

As for how I think I'm going to achieve it... well, I don't. I'll still have a go of course, the first step being getting enough money to move away, and having the qualifications/experience to get a job once there. After that, gods know.

I'm not very specific, am I?

@rus: what type of job do you have in mind?

@santtu: why not open some pet-care facility then? i guess you'd be having the time of your life, what with rehabilitating cats who were hit by cars and so on...

Those places need shitloads of money to survive :/ like the cat shelter in my town is about to fall apart because of lack of money

 

[Rusty]

@rus: what type of job do you have in mind?

If I knew that, I'd be slightly happier right now. But I haven't got a clue, I don't even know the basic area of work I would be in, or what sort of thing it would involve, or anything. So I can't really do any specific things to move me towards it, just get general qualifications and general work experience.

 

[hyena]

@santtu: well, you live on a nice big estate, now don't you? cajole your parents into investing in the cat shelter, become managing director as a recompense for bringing their money to the institution... done.

 

[Human Desert]

mmmmmm *dreams*..Now if only my parents had any money, hah

 

[YaYo]

I am making my dream happen

I'm not aiming to be world famous or rich from my music.. but i do aim for recognition. Something like a Kayo Dot.. not everyone's cup of tea but for those that love them it's something they can't find elsewhere and that they love dearly. You know, the first band you'll mention when someone asks for that special something. I guess i want to have a musical point, not just be another 'good' musician amongst the masses.

But my musical aims are also broader than that i guess, wanting to explore many styles and excel in all of them, play with different people, etc etc. The first stages are in motion and so far so good, and there are many ideas and possibilities in future.. this is the area of life that drives me and gives me satisfaction and confidence. I'm very ambitious too (in some ways.. such as the types of albums i aim to make)..

so far i have 5 albums planned out that i must make, each stylistically different. Without having anything released ive already started work on all of them. Kind of scary really, but i'm trying to keep it under control..

It's a pity i work so slowly though

to live off music would be even better.. i'm happy to have a job in IT that seems stable and i quite enjoy it. But enjoyment and satisfaction are different things, music affects people personally, and that suits me better than essentially moving money around.

oh yeh, and girls, blah blah.. somebody to appreciate what i have to offer would be nice..

 

[terria]

okay here we go:
1.to get paid for writing, recording and performing my music and be totally free to do whatever i want to do musically at the same time (something in the line of björk, not musically but err creatively)
2.peace. i know it's all in me, and i made the xperience that i can be happy with ANYTHING sometimes and that sometimes everything should be perfectly alright and still darkness descends... so i don't want many changes outside, i'd need to change within... whatever supreme being listens, help me!
3. find HER. i do have a girlfriend but i am afraid that she is not the future mother of my children.
there's more where that came from but that's about it for now...

oh and to love myself and stuff.

 

[Taliesin]

If the studies Im gonna begin soon work out as planned I might get a really cool job with good payment. I know money doesn't buy happy but it makes stuff easier. I dont plan on "buying" any happiness anyway
That's about the only ambition I have..

 

[hyena]

@viking: what line of study are you in?

@terria: what you said about your girlfriend sounds quite scary - pardon the intrusion, but why are you still with her if you think she is not the one you want to be with?

@idari: i'm positive they have. come on, they must have.

@yayo: very cool dream you have there, although i have no idea who kayo dot is/are. as soon as i can i'll give your music a listen...

 

[Human Desert]

@idari: i'm positive they have. come on, they must have.

Well actually they don't My dad just made me give him 8€ because he didn't have money for cat food
We're pretty much teh poor these days.

 

[hyena]

sell teh estate then.

 

[Human Desert]

NEVER!! Maybe me and my sisters will sell it when our parents die. Jesus though *idea lamp* if both of my sisters died too i'd be RICH This yard was cheap when my parents bought it like 30 years ago, but now it's worth millions..especially with the swimming pool and stuff. *starts planning a mass murder*

Ultimate goals: FIND REAL LOVE. Be happy.

Immediate goals: Figure out what I want to do exactly and how to do it. Work abroad. Travel. Get a car and my own apartment (hahahahaha). Hit the gym, stick to a workout routine and attain that fabulous body I've always wanted. MEET YOU GUYS!

Not-so-immediate goals: Be rich. Own nice house. Start a family with that one nice man. Be the best mum and wife I can be. Do social work with kids. See the world. Win ad awards.

Unrealistic goals: Star in an award-winning TV commercial written and directed by me. Star in a brilliant film, preferably romcom. Have hot passionate wild monkey sex with Johnny Depp. Front a band. Write beautiful love song that will move you to tears (or idari at least (L), darling). Save the world.
