FIDM

So!!!
This is my LAST QUARTER at The Fashion school in LA. We're gearing upto starting our own clothing line in April, upon completion of my school!! Yes!!

Since I got married last July (after finally receiving my parents blessings for dating an African American boy for 4-years, but that's another long story) my husband and I packed up as much as we could in our Ford F150, and drove cross country to California!~

We dropped everything that was going on in our lives in Virginia and headed for our new big dream on the west side! To set up a successful clothing company! ^^*

So here we are, right in the center of downtown LA, a block away from FIDM, with all the krazy fashion district businesses, in our palm's reach.

The school has been great, $24,000 and then some for the tuition I took out in loan hopefully will be a big payoff in the end! But so far, I have managed to stay in the "A's and A-'s" for my grades. I have been here for 9-months now, (3-quarters of classes) and starting my last quarter finally tomorrow.

This is why I am starting this blog! So many people have been curious and have been asking me about how I am doing, what I am learning in school, how I am dealing with my new situation and etc. It has been really tough trying to adjust to the new life style, but with just One quarter left of school, I wanted to share with everyone so they can hear from me, first-hand!!

I am going to try my best to post my daily updates in details. Hopefully you can quench your thirst by hearing from me, how my famous school really is (due to the show "Hills," and "Project Runway") and what it is like to attend a fashion school in Los Angeles! I will also try to write details about my past 3-quarters, for example, taking a class with Mr. Nick Verreos! ^.~
