My Personal Achievements

 I receive my first award in 2004 for being the most creative and artistic designer in the class. Starting there I then continued in art designs and receive the same award each year. As I grew older, I realize that art in general wasn't what I really wanted to go far with. Instead it was a different type of art, fashion arts; sketching out all the different clothing. Then putting it together and sewing it up. As I got into that, I thought that doing this wasn't enough and that I wanted to make money and find a job that requires my skills and talents. At first, I was planning to sew up clothing and sell it, however that required a lot of work and time. As a full time student i didn't have enough time, so I just gave up. One of my most fears is giving up something that I know if i work for it I can go far. But I was still young and wanted to experience other things.
They say that a person has 100 and more talents that they never knew they even had. I looked at what I was good at compared to what I liked and put the puzzles together. I liked fashion but my whole mindset wasn't on becoming a fashion designer. So that wasn't the career I wanted to focus on.


Since I was younger I loved being in front of the camera and would dress myself up just to take pictures. The more practice I did the better I was getting and I loved it! So i thought maybe this time, I wanted to become a model. I started going to shooting parties meet new photographers even had my own cards to give them, eventually I was known for my modeling, however as time passes I still yet again didn't feel stable with this career. Maybe this wasn't what I wanted either. But I knew now that i had a lot of potential. I knew that if i put my mind in something I will be able to achieve it, I proved it to myself and that's what gave me my own determination to dream bigger. I wanted to be an artist, I became one, I wanted to be a fashion designer, I didn't become one however I designed and made my own clothes to sell; lastly I wanted to become a model and get my name out there and I became one. Through all of this, I learned that if you set a goal for yourself and really want to become something, you will. Nothing will magically appear in front of you.. The effort you put into your dreams or even into anything is what you are going to receive back.
