So, it has in fact been about a month or more since i have last written in here, and plenty has changed. For one, i am no longer on the blind path towards becoming a lawyer. my life has literally changed overnight. i wish i would have kept this up-to-date, oh well i guess i shall just fill you in between the lines. on new years eve, i went to this catering with my sister and the woman in charge of fashion merchandising for Johnson & Wales was there, Debra, well she said to me on that fateful night.."How are you doing Emily, What are you studying?"
i replied"Hi Debra, i'm well. I'm going to FIU, im studying Sociology."
she was not hesitant nore discrete in her response, "oh, nice."
i noticed the perplexion in her face and i was quick to add that i hoped to become a lawyer.
then, as simplistic as small talk can be she simply said, "Well, you are going to be a very fashionable lawyer."
THAT! exactly that small little sarcasm rocked my world. i went home that night with a head full of doubts, i began to think about taking summer classes at the art institute or doing something to straighten myself out.
well, a few days passed and come that sunday night, i had an epiphany. i got home from work and started looking up schools and seeing what my options were. i narrowed it down to one.
Monday morning i woke up, got dressed in my chicest corporate attire and i went to see Debra. By the end of the nerve wracking and very emotional meeting, i had an appointment for an interniship at Christian Dior that Wednesday, exactly one week after New Years.
Well, given that karma is on my side, i got the internship and i am now in the process of communicating with Human Resources for Dior in New York, they are trying to get the paper work and all of the necessary requirements together so that i can start ASAP!
well, as far as school goes, that Monday of the meeting i also dropped my 7 class load schedule which encompassed very intricate classes in the subjects of political science and sociology, all to follow my dream to be somebody...
