Scott Edens, 15, from Moneyreagh, was recently in the Star on work experience finding out what the role of a journalist involves. He is a student at Saintfield High School where he is studying for his GCSE's.
What do you like doing on your day off?
I like going into Belfast with friends, listening to music, and
going on Facebook/ Twitter.
If you were to choose your favourite meal what would it be,
where and why?
I love Chinese food so I'd love to visit China to see if it's
any different to what Chinese food is like here. My favourite food from
a Chinese would be either sweet and sour chicken or ribs with peking
sauce.
What has been your proudest moment?
Being awarded the Principals cup in my first year of high school.
What was the most frightening moment of your life?
There are many frightening moments I have experienced but if I
had to choose the most frightening moment it would probably be going on
a plane for the first time in my life. But it turned out to be a
wonderful experience.
How would you describe your taste in clothes?
I don't really take interest in any brands of clothing nor do I
do enjoy doing a lot of shopping in fancy branded shops. So I really
just like a plain shirt and jacket with jeans.
What would you do if you won a million pounds?
I would put some of it in a bank and save it and spend the rest
of it on travelling to places in the world that I have always wanted to
go to and possibly buy a brand new smartphone and computer.
What music do you like?
I pretty much love all types of music and my taste changes a
lot. From rap to rock and from electronic to pop. My latest addiction
would be dubstep. My favourite artist would be Lady Gaga as I believe
she is very talent and different from most other artists I also enjoy
listening to Ke$ha and Nicki Minaj. My favourite bands would have to be
an electronic band called Crystal Castles and The Blackout who are a
heavy rock band.
What sports person do you most admire?
I am not really that much into sport bgut I do like playing and
watching a bit of tennis so I would have to say either Rafael Nadal or
Rodger Federer.
Describe your best ever holiday. What would your dream
holiday be?
I flew to Alicante in Spain. It was amazing and I loved the
warmth and beaches. My dream holiday would probably be touring the whole
of America to see all the culture and landmarks in the country. It would
truly be amazing.
What is your greatest remaining ambition?
Being completely honest I do not have a distinct ambition at
the moment.
If you could spend a day with a celebrity whom would you
choose?
Either Lady Gaga or Snooki from Jersey Shore.
If you were stranded on a desert island what three things
would you want with you?
I would want food, water and music with me.
