Austin Prime's Blog

What are your thoughts on her new video. Is it too ‘dirty’ for the little kids? I love it! Post your thoughts in the comments!

Here’s a paper I wrote, simple sweet and to the point. I hope the tone isn’t too much. We’ll see.

Ah, I finally get to write something about myself. Ever since I was about 9 or 10, I’ve been absolutely obsessed with radio. Why? Well to be honest, I’m not too sure. My elementary school friend and I used to always do mock radio shows out of his window, and record artificial radio shows to cassette tapes. As time went on, I decided radio is where I wanted to go with my life, even if it is going down! I started off on internet radio doing shows for a few small stations and then I became known and was asked to be on an iTunes radio station. After that, I was contacted to be on an FM station in Beekman, New York called FLY 104.9. I later met a guy named Matt and a girl named Laura on the internet and we did a radio-like show for over a year, and after knowing each other for a few years we met in real life… something some teachers totally are against for some reason. Later on I met this guy named Drew and we started a nationally syndicated radio show called The Prime Krew which is heard on 4 radio stations right now.

Social networking is growing rapidly online. I decided I wanted to be a part of that, so I joined Twitter and a few other social networks. Right now I have over 1,000 followers on Twitter. These people have pretty much allowed me to be who I am and have encouraged me to do tons of things including applying for jobs at local radio stations. I applied to work at a local radio station and I heard back from the boss in less than an hour. He told me that I am the youngest person that he had ever considered hiring, and that he thinks I’m going to get very far in life. I considered this a turning point in my life, because I found out that I actually can get and accomplish what I want if I just take that extra step. In the future, I hope to be heard and seen everywhere. Maybe even considered the next Ryan Seacrest… how lame is that? Well maybe not the next Ryan Seacrest but the next Austin Prime who’s so much cooler.

This is pretty much for the teacher to get to know about the students I guess. Not sure but hopefully it’s cool.
