so how did you first decide you wanted to study fashion journalism? or what led you in that direction?

A combination of:
- At the time, and still now, fashion magazines/literature is a something I very much enjoy reading in my spare time. It seemed important to me (especially when I was 15/16) to chose a career path that I would enjoy.
- At the time I chose the course I had completed an internship at a local fashion magazine which I loved. I realised I was not only interested in but good at the ‘business’ side of things: the logistics, the organisation, the editing.
- In the UK system you choose your A Levels at 15/16 and the A Levels you choose dictate what you can study at university as each course has different entry requirements. I’ve written about A Level choice trouble as a result of my school, and the problem my love of a lot of subjects caused in some detail here.
(For those confused and thinking ‘but you don’t study fashion journalism?’ I refer you to the above ‘here’, and also to here.)
My boyfriend didnt watch finding nemo when he was younger (i dont know man what happened or where he was or whatever) and now I really wanna watch finding dory but i feel like we can’t watch it together..since he doesnt know what it was like to watch finding nemo as a child and he will never understand what the films ACTUALLY mean to everybody
am i making sense? probably not.
It feels like somebody took my heart and dropped it into a bucket of boiling tears. And, at the same time, somebody else is hitting my soul in the crotch with a frozen sledgehammer. And then a third guy walks in and starts punching me in the grief bone. And I am crying, and nobody can hear me because I am terribly, terribly, terribly alone.
