January- A new year, A long way to go

So people, I realise i'm a bit late to announce this, but a new year is upon us. So I'm starting to look for ways to start making money in the music industry. I only have 18 months left on my course, and then I'm on my own, into the big wide world. So in order to survive, I need to be making, even if its only semi pro to begin with, at least it will be something. I can always work part time whist I'm trying to make enough money work work as a full time musician.
Having done a bit of research, I have come up with some ideas for myself, the first one, is the dream one. Working full time as a drummer, this jobs would consist of playing in a band, sessioning in the studio and on tours, teaching and maybe some drum technician work as well. All of this could combine to make me enough money to get by. However, that is the dream, and I realise that I should be able to do some of those thing, but I may have to do other things also in order to earn enough money to get by. My second idea, is to write some music for TV, film or radio. I am currently saving up for my own studio software and I hope to start write music for TV programs or adverts in order to earn some money of off adverts.
There are 100's of other ideas running around my head, but it would take me much more time than I have to go through them all right now, I would like to end by wishing everyone a happy new year. Take it easy people.
