Salutations, my dears!

So, you may be wondering right now what this all is. To tell you the truth, I only halfway know. This will hopefully be an epiphany for me, as well as a starting point and a place of understanding. I am a senior in high school, looking towards my future. Next year, I plan to go to college and study fashion journalism, but earlier tonight, I started to realize the world is my oyster and I simply have no idea what to do with a damn oyster.
I’m filling out scholarships, deciding which dorm to live in, and saving money from working at Dairy Queen and I don’t even know if fashion is what I want to do with my life. It’s full of networking and talking, and possibly moving to a huge city, and I don’t know if all of that is for me. I don’t know if I will be able to learn names and know things that don’t interest me.
For me, fashion is about being myself. (I’m terrible at art, all my people are stick people.) I use fashion as a way to express myself, and I love it. I am who I am because of fashion. It’s one thing in my life that I am good at and is mine.
I created this blog to see if I really do want to do fashion, because I am so scared of making the wrong choice and picking a career that I don’t love. So here you go. Please feel free to comment and tell me what you think. I would love to have feedback.


Just so you know.... I have been craving these for about a month now. Alas, although the price is within my range, Dairy Queen closes a few months in the winter and I am without income for awhile, so it is best to be cheap just in case I really need something else. And I desist asking my parents for money. I’m a big girl now.

  1. I guess we're in it together? I'm wondering the same exact thing and am hoping to get an internship for a fashion magazine in the near future. I know I want fashion, because I can already see myself in a little cubicle, organizing the latest photo shoot pictures and adding punny (hah, get it?) captions. Where do you want to see yourself?
    Good luck!

  2. Well, I don't really know, but I do want to change the fashion industry, and bring back individuality and weirdness, and less names and more fun. I more see myself advising and maybe writing features rather than magazine layout. Thanks for reading, and good luck to you to!
