POST 341.
I'm not too sure if I'd stick to this one but, I want to move to the UK after high school.
So I thought the Universities Further Education trip after lunch today was going to be a bore. I was wrong, it was pretty exciting, except all the squeezing, pushing and insane, queuing. After seeing a few universities and getting all the booklets for my mom and dad, I found my dream school. Possibly the school that I'd die, to get into.
University of the Arts, London.
Apparently, there're a few schools together with that but when I spoke to one of the dudes there, he said that I should be looking at Saint Martin's College of Art and Design, and the London College of Fashion. Already it sounds fab, I mean, I was so excited that I even wrote down my mail for them to send any extra details or info whatever. Right, and only an hour ago I was moaning about how I had absolutely no idea what I was planning to do. Then after I asked what were the IB requirements.
Shockingly enough, as long as I pass my diploma. Mainly because, the main focus is a portfolio. Yes, I need to submit a portfolio and from there I might or might not be picked for a place in the school. That was also when I saw their banner behind that said:
Some of our successful alumni:
John Galliano - Fashion designer
Jimmy Choo - Shoe designer
Alexander Mcqueen - Fashion designer
Zac Posen - Fashion designer
Stella McCartney - Fashion designer
No effing way. *jaw drops when I saw the banner* I LOVE, JOHN GALLIANO AND ALEXANDER MCQUEEN O: Not to mention, Jimmy Choo shoes, are fab. I couldn't get the thought out of my head after that, I just kept thinking, "I have to go to that school." Then the funny thing was, the dude there assumed automatically I was in year 12 (since most students there were, our school was the only exception.) and asked, "Have you started on your portfolio?" I answered, "No" but in my head I was thinking, "Uh... no? And dude, I'm in year 11 man what to do I know about all these portfolios and everything. Now that you said it, I'm kinda like, woah, this is serious."
But then again, just to keep my options open and of course, I went to check out other universities like UNSW, University of Melbourne, Les Roches Bluche Swiss Hotel Management School (Completely against my will. It was my mom.) and I think SCAD. And of course, clear enough, I returned with a stack of those school thingies, whatever they're called.
I don't know if I might just change my mind in 2 years time but right now, my mind is completely set on either Saint Martin's College of Art and Design, or London College of Fashion.
I realise my behaviour lately is completely against my nature. O: I do not get excited over universities and neither do I get excited over P.E class. Yes, I was actually feeling kinda bummed today we missed P.E for the trip. ._. wtf?
