First I am going to

while sorting the
onions. Lastly I will
reindeer to the gas
station and lean with
it.

takes to be a Rock
Legend?
Now that I am more
well informed, do I
believe I actually can be
a Rock Legend?
What could I have
done to make my
project better?
Self-Assessment
On December 5th, I went to
www.texasrealitycheck.com and took their
interest inventory about what kind of life I
wanted for myself.
 I stated that I wanted the most expensive
type of lifestyle with as little education as
possible.

Self-Assessment Cont.
Because of the info I gave, the program
told me I should be come a Rock Star!
 Without taking the assessment, I still
would have wanted to be a Rock Star, but
the results made me much more confident
in my choice.

Job Description: My job would be to learn songs
that other people have written, record the songs,
do media promotions of the music and perform
both in concert and for media outlets.
Duties: I would have the duties of living a rock
star type lifestyle, setting a poor example for
America’s youth while still being considered a role
model, and trying not to die young.
Responsibilities: I would be responsible for
keeping a unreasonable level of drama in my life,
rocking people’s faces off and endorsing merch
that is terribly over priced.

Qualifications: If I can pretend to sing, then I
qualify to be a rock star.
Entry-level positions: First I probably should start
out as a struggling local artist in order to be
visible for record label scouts. Or I could put
myself on the internet.
Advancement opportunities: Once I get picked up
by a record company, I will instantly become a
sensation, just like the Chocolate Rain kid.
Job Outlook: The outlook is pretty terrible for the
nest 10 years or so.
Salary: As much as possible. How much money
they give me directly depends on how popular I
can get.
Exploring Local Artists

I have a friend who was in a local band called
Gnar World Order. I recently asked him some
questions about being Level 2 famous.
He said that there isn’t much too it but it took a
really long time to get to where his band
currently is.
They put in lots of time and effort for gigs that
don’t really pay and probably won’t yield any
more fame than they started with.
He reports that it is a long, hard, but fun road to
travel.
Sample Work
In Ms. Crider’s class, we did a project
called a “Life Map”.
 This map gave me a chance to think about
my past and future like a road map of
where I have been and where I want to
go.
 This project gave me a chance to imagine
myself as a rock star and to path I will
have to take to become the ultimate
entertainer.

Career Planning

I have 2 main career goals:
1.
2.

To become a hugely popular rock star
To make a ton of cash
To complete these goals I plan to:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Take music classes in high school.
Start a band before leaving high school.
Begin playing a lot of show by the end of high school.
Start locally touring before the age of 20.
Make a network with at least 20 other bands and
venue owners by the time I’m 21.
Use of FCS Coursework

Family and Consumer Science education
will help me because:


It taught me to work hard, be honest, and
pretend to be interested in topics I don’t care
about.
I learned to cook, sew and take care of babies.
This will come in handy when I live alone with
almost no money and have to babysit my
friends’ kids for extra cash.
