I turned 29 this year. I suppoesd that people at my age may already on their right track trying hard for year to achive in their career. I really have no idea, however, I don't worry about it.
Three years ago, I happened to take a sewing course with a dressmaker in the neighbourhood. The reason was that I wanted to make cloth to my size and to make something different. Sewing requires techniques, patience and practice. To tell the truth, It wasn't always a pleasure for me. But I didn't ever think off giving it up. It was wierd, beacause things can easily catch my attention. During theses years, I've learned Japanese for months; I was fond of the magic even thought of becaming a spiritual instructor; I'd thought of learning graphic design and photography... I didn't have a clear object in my mind. I didn't know what to do with my life, neither what the future holds for me.
When I looked back on my life, there was a really clear memory came to my mind. It was an afternoon when I was about ten year-old. I was with my mom in the living room. I asked her for some fabric scrap to make things. I can still remember that I made a little fish plush toy using a blue fabric, and a pair of botton as eyes. It was the first thing I sewed in my life. There was always a sewing machine in my mom's bedroom though she never taught me how to use. I also remember that my mom once told me that his parents had never bought her new clothes. So she studied on her own when she was a child and made clothes for herself. Maybe my passion towards sewing was handed down to me from my mom?
The other person who enlightened me was Lady Gaga. Everytimes she came out on the stage I was obsessed with her outfit and her make-up. They were exotic, eye-catching, daring but aesthetic. The costume shaped her image. I'm fond of the idea that using the costume to express oneself, to show the world your what's on your mind, or just simply be elegant and unique.
I know the fashion world may not be as I imagine right now, but this is not a thing that I should concerned with. All I need to do is to make the most of my passion to create.
very well written!
Thank you so much. Those corrections helped me a lot.
