Being 18, you'd imagine I would do what other,normal 18 year olds do, have the same interest, hobbies..
but that could not be further from the truth.
I just don't 'get' teenagers thesedays!.
I don't feel like i have anything in common with them.
I spend My days working my ass off creating new make up looks, drawing up sketches of fashion clothes im going to make. All while responding to companies and attending meetings.
I made the choice of working instead of college. I intend to study fashion design and study at a fashion college, not one where i would learn about 10% fashion and 50 % maths and 40% english.
I want all focus to be on what it is i am studying.
I Spend majority of my days meeting people, either models, stylists, photographers all like myself doing their best to get out there and make something of themselves, something that you can't be taught in college. Mostly experience. We stick together, help each other out but never cross each other - its very much a dog eat dog world.
Teenagers spend their free time.. drinking and getting stoned and finding ways to totally destroy all their self respect...i spend my free time trying to fit to a companies deadline, getting my shit together for corporate companies ideas which Im supposed to be able to make real.
I don't have the time or tolerance for lazy people or wasters.
I just feel like i don't even breathe the same air as some people my age.
The times Im free, i prefer to just go to the cinema, hang out with friends, stay over at someone's house - Just relax...
In most teens pockets are cigarettes.
In mine is a day planner, and half of it is filled with things to do that require things being done by a certain time for someone else Or a meeting to attend to discuss style and business.
SO, DEAR TEENAGERS OF THE WORLD!
if there are any of you out there that work hard to be someone and work for what you have a passion for, be it Art, Fashion, Music, Animals whatever!
Then lets talk!
cause Im still waiting to meet teens like me.
xoxo
