one of the biggest things in my life

i guess one of my biggest passions in life will be fashion. It properly sounds cliche' and saturated since everyone seems to be into fashion these days. It's scary to witness the number of "aspiring upcoming designers" whenever i open a fashion magazine. Let's see, there are around 50+ popupar fashion magazines/ezines/blogs that are read by me every month,times 12 months in a year, times 20+ aspiring new designers featured in each magazine/ezine/blog, so that'll be .... xyz number of new designers that get recognized every single freaking year. anyway, to keep the optimism up i guess i'll just go back to my own little world of fashion wonderland and keep dreaming...
so when did it all start? I can't exactly say when, but i guess it was when i was about 5-6, one time i opened the local newspaper and saw an amazing red dress in the tiny fashion corner. In my head now i can still remember exactly what it looked like. Was it valentino a lot of people have asked me? may be, since i couldn't really read viet at the time let alone foreign designer names. The dress was kinda like a mix of this...

and this ....

but in red which to a lot of people seem quite plain and simple, but that was really the item that had me going 'hey i wanna make sumthing like that too'.
i remember getting soo much joy just sitting at home cutting out and drawing outfits for this...


, while other kids were playing all kinds of physical activities outside and my mum would start wondering if i had sum kind of disease and started sending me to this...


. Now those who know me well can just laugh their asses off picturing me in a martial arts class, while to those who don't know me that well, let's just say it kinda looked like this ..

so ANYWAYS, to make things short, with tremedour efforts from my parents to stop me from going down the non-money-making-plus-it's-a-gay-job path, i ended up choosing the career with the highest suicidal rate, dentistry. Is my passion still there? yes it is, stronger than ever. will i have a career out of it? may be, we'll see.
SO until u spot my fugly face on wwd, baboosh! lol jk :).
