Since I was about five years old, I have loved fashion and anything having to do with clothing.  I can remember constantly playing dress up and as soon as I was old enough I was making and designing my own clothes.  So of course when it came time to decide what I wanted to do after high school, I chose to apply to a fashion design school.  I was only going to apply to the fashion school, but my guidance counselor wanted me to have a second choice and she suggested I look into schools that offer similar courses.

I found an art school close by that offered not only traditional art courses, but also courses in clothing design and architecture, which my guidance counselor thought would be a great start in case I didn’t get into the fashion design school right away.

Well, I took her advice and ended up being accepted to both schools!  Even though I have always dreamed of designing my own line of clothing, I want to weigh my decision and make the right one for me. Now I have to decide which school I want to go to, because the idea of the art school has kind of grown on me.
