konichiha! sore ha resume desu ka?

So i've decided to not spend another aimless summer interviewing bands and flitting around on scattered vacations to california and new york.. I want something new..... So I've decided I want to apply for summer internships in NY and LA...I'm thinking of applying for cnn and or sirius xm.... I was looking at internship req's, and they all ask for a resume... As I lost when i transfered all my files to my external hard drive, my old resume, i'm working on a new one..... here it is, though I feel like it's lacking a little:

Education:
I was home schooled from 4th grade on. I was enrolled at eleven in Stanford University's online gifted program. I also had private lessons in computer graphics, 3d computer animation, html & web design, French, and Japanese. For extra curricular activities I did: horseback riding, guitar, bass guitar, drums, various forms of dance, and vocal lessons.
At age sixteen, I enrolled in Scottsdale Community College taking various classes in their Broadcasting and Film school.

Work Experience:
Fourteen: I worked on the 2004 George W. Bush Presidential Re-election Campaign. I did phone banking at the Phoenix Republican Headquarters offices, as well as helped deliver yard signs.

Sixteen:
I hosted my own weekly radio show(for a year) on Scottsdale Community College/KFHX Fountain Hill's internet radio station. I got listeners from all over North America and even some from Europe, who enjoyed my banter as well as my selections in punk, alternative and metal music.

Seventeen:
I created a web blog,RockstarBaby.net, blogging about the latest new in the rock music world. Two weeks after starting the blog, I decided to go after getting interviews with bands, as being a journalist has always been my dream.
I've interviewed: 3!0h3, The 69 Eyes, The Academy Is, The Almost, Authority Zero, Circa Survive, Cisco Adler(tv personality), CKY, Clutch, Cobra Starship, Cute Is What We Aim For, Envy On The Coast, the Gym Class Heroes, Haste The Day, The Matches, Mike Vallely (professional skateboarder), Monty are I, Mindless Self Indulgence, Norma Jean, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Shwayze, and Story Of The Year.
I've had press credentials to: 2007 Cradle Of Filth tour, My Chemical Romance's "Welcome To The Black Parade Tour", The 2007 Alternative Press Tour, 2007 Honda Civic Tour starring Fall Out Boy, 2007 Van's Warped Tour, 2007 Projekt Revolution Tour, 2007 Family Values Tour, Bam Margera Presents Viva La Bands Tour, Cobra Starship's Really Really Ridiculously Good Looking Tour, 2008 Taste Of Chaos Tour, Club Tattoo's 10th Anniv' Party featuring Chester Bennington from Linkin Park, 2008 Van's Warped Tour, 2008 Maloof Money Cup Skateboard Competition, and the 2009 Avenged Sevenfold Tour.
I still keep up with RockstarBaby, though it's now shifted it's focus from just rock music to more of a general pop culture standpoint.

Matt Deis, bassist for the band CKY (famous for being on the MTV shows Jackass, Viva La Bam, and Bam's Unholy Union, as well as the CKY series of Skateboard movies), had me design and maintain his official web site. I did his web site for him from January, until October of that year, when he could no longer afford to keep a web site due to a band hiatus.

I had an article, that I wrote about Fall Out Boy, published in the Winter 2007 edition of Heart Magazine.

Eighteen:
I continued RockstarBaby.net.

I created my own street wear t-shirt line called The Dark Matter Project, which I sell online.
