I am so happy


I got into the fashion styling course at The Whitehouse Institute of design. I am soooooo happy I am doing fashion styling now, this is my dream course, exactly what I have always wanted to do. The interview went so well. basically the interviewer opened up the 1st page of my folio and said "wait I just have to go get someone" and he brought in another teacher (or the receptionist? I couldn't tell) because he thought it was just so amazing. So that was a good sign, and then a few pages later he said "you are in". So yeah you could say the interview went really well.

Some pages from my folio:







In other good news my sister bought her ticket to Tokyo so we are going together, but she leaves Tokyo 2 days before me. It is going to be so much fun I can't wait. We are making so many plans for things to do and people to see. I seriously can't wait.
