Wow...life has kind of flung me around and somehow I've managed to hold on to it for so long...but I realized that's not what life is about...it's about letting go and having faith in what's out there...and what I've discovered is that this world is amazing and if you look close enough...it's perfectly beautiful.
I feel as though these pages are going to be drenched in my babble…
Where to even start?
Stories?
Cat called me Sunday…wow, she’s amazing. I ended up talking to her for 2 hours about everything and it was just incredible to have her there for me, here for life. Living in a dorm means you have no privacy whatsoever, and I needed to find a room to talk to her in…so I went downstairs, and found an empty study room…and on the walls they have chalkboards, and I suppose the people before me used it to study chemistry because there were formulas and such written all over the boards…so of course I didn’t bother to read them…so here I am, in this room, talking to my Catters, about life and how to understand it all…and then of course I started crying because some stuff is just so incredibly heavy…and then when I got off the phone with her, cleansed of all the anxiety from life, I looked at the board in front of me and read, “There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in it’s hands. You seek problems because you need their gifts.”…it was like it came out of nowhere…
I seem to go backwards often? Anyways…Friday and Saturday were just wonderful…I can’t even explain the exact moments of inspiration…but there were quite a few…and this one’s clear: I want to be successful in the Fashion industry… not even kidding, I had so many revelations, like new found respect for fashion and understanding on how much I really want to be something in the fashion industry, be a part of all the excitement and just do something with my life that contributes to this amazing career…I can’t even fathom all these possibilities for they exceed my mind and I just can’t wait to discover them all…there’s just so much I can do and so much I want to say, it’s just bursting! And I’m so excited because this Friday I’m going to NYC!!! for an F.I.T. seminar thing!! AHHHH!!! I LOVE MY MAJOR!!!
Ohh…zooming past the weekend, yesterday I had to pick my schedule…funny how I used the word “pick” because I had 4 required fashion classes, so I only got to “pick” one class…hmmm…so what did I pick? ASTRONOMY! YES! I looooove astronomy! So my schedule is:
Fashion Design 121: Concept/Construction II (sewing, aka “sweat shop”-lol)
Fashion Design 147: Visual Thinking II
Retailing 171

Off to a long night of studio, meetings, and an immense amount of work...
And to all my amazing friends...I'm so grateful you have helped shape me into who I am...and for that...I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!
