the big leap....college!!

rite so i've known what i wanted to do since i was in 3rd year which is i think 9th grade for all my readers in the states. i knew i wanted to be in fashion ever since i was old enough to shop i knew that the fashion industry was my calling!!so i decided to combine my 2 passions of writing and fashion into my dream job "fashion journalism" so for the past year or so i have been searching for colleges as it is my last year of high school i know i am finally going into the big bad world away from the clicks and the cheesy discos i will be a grown up come june next year!
Anyway so yeh i originally i was set to go to griffith college study fashion for 3 years and then on to journalism for a year but now all of a sudden i don't wanna stay here in ireland to study i wanna trravel i wanna study in the fashion institute of design and merchandise in LA California.
i lived in cali wen i was younger and i've always felt my true calling was to live there and live that life style have my hectic journalism life in hollywood or downtown LA and then when it all gets to much go out to my beach house at huntington ha its always been my dream but when i've been about college it suddenly hit me these dreams don't magically come true you need to make them happen for yourself you have to invest time and take chances,my life in LA if i did move would me a major step for me and my family i'd be moving far away from them and left to fend on my own i'd be thrown straight into the deep end i think i could do it to be honest with you!it would certainly be a big challange and a culture change that would take some adjustment but i think it maybe worth the leap it would defiantly teach me to be more independant and in a world like today u gotta learn how to swim fast in the fast pace life we are all begining to lead!!

Take that chance on your dreams...the only regret you can feel is if you don't. :)

I say go for it. If it's something you want and know you can do, do it!

Yeah, you'll miss your family and such but don't fret; you'll still see them! Just make sure you plan for it now and not later, that way it all works out.

Good luck!! :0]
