Who Ya Gonna Call?

Josh Lycans has his eye on the prize when it comes to his future career.
     When asked what his future aspirations were, Lycans, 17, described a dream of getting degrees in "journalism and either art or psychology." This would enable him to get a job at either the New York Times or the Washington Post. Depending on how much he makes as a journalist, he will save it up, move to Canada, and travel the world like he's wanted to. Ultimately, Josh just wants to be a freelancer.
     That doesn't mean that Josh, a Cabell Midland High School graduate, would lose his personality. Describing himself as both sarcastic and loving, Lycans definitely comes through as different. He has a passion for writing and drawing, which makes sense as he defines himself as the creative and outgoing type. However, he participates in an activity which many might find odd.
      "I like watching movies and building props as well." He explained, citing Ghostbusters as one of his favorites. In class, he told the fellow workshop participants about all of the props he's built, including the Evil Dead chainsaw and a miniature proton pack from Ghostbusters.
      When asked when the last time he cried and who the first person he ever loved was, Josh answered rather succintly, "Sunday." and "About 2 years ago, Paul. He saw it as more of a friendship," respectively.
     For his first job, Josh worked as a bus boy at Chick-fil-A. From the tone of his voice, he didn't sound as though he liked it all too much.
     Josh definitely knows the importance of a good friend. He said that one of his favorite hobbies is hanging out with all of his friends, and he responded with "My friends. They've helped me and I've helped them out. It all balances out. We learn from each other" when asked about what has given him the most pleasure in the last year.
     He also said that he would choose his "best friend Dax Arthur," because he "has helped me through a lot of tough times." Lycans made it clear that he always relies on and trusts his friends when he needs them. He needs them for support, especially in these upcoming months as he starts as a freshman at Marshall University. Hopefully, Lycans's life plan will come to fruition at the school.
