Job When Older

nope, there's nothing wrong with 'being a paparazzi'.

[MrPinkPanther]

Can i ask is there something wrong is doing Paparazzi or Journalism work? :/

No offence Kyle but your English isn't exactly perfect, at least on here. I think you will struggle.

[adidas]

hmm, a photographer or maybe a mechanic.

This is something that can be easily ironed out with a little help from hard study and education.

The point is, journalism is dying. Newspapers and magazines and so on are a declining journalistic medium; i.e. they're going the same route as CD's - won't be long until they are yesterday's news. Most of these have all moved online to websites and blogs and so on.

Basically studying to be a journalist in this day and age is a risky business - it's like training to be a professional coal miner, it's all being overruled thanks to new technology.
For ages I wanted to be a motoring journalist until my dad pointed this out, and now I realise that to be totally safe, you're better finding a different career route.
Of course, you can still take spy shots of celebrities as a hobby...

Only to a certain extent. I'm sure the vast majority of journalists writing for national newspapers are naturally talented at English and writing.

I agree that Newspapers and such are declining but you need to remember someone needs to write those blogs, websites etc. Its just changing medium but I think you are right, over the next 20 years or so I can see journalism declining.

Yes but someone still has to take photos for the websites etc?

A very good point! You will need to study that subject then. =]

[The Don]

Yeh, just study hard, and make sure you get atleast two c's in gcse english and have at least 5 a*-c gcses and take a level photography.

[KyleSmith]

Yes, Im working on a B Grade in GCSE english.

As far as the photography for my courses i took Business, Creative Arts and Media, and music.

I'm sure your parents will be fine about everything, I used to want to be a Maths Teacher, but now I hate maths, now I want to be a writer and my parents have stood by me with both of my choices, I'm sure your parents too will be fine.
