    I just made a (virtual) portfolio of all my creations, and I'd like to hear what you guys think about it Happy

    Also, does anyone else have a portfolio?

    We can give CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, support, etc.

    Remember, CONSTRUCTIVE...I don't think you guys will do anything mean, but you know, mean people exist on the internet!!

    So, here goes!!

    First, welcome Sedna!!! Also, that sucks. I know what it's like to have a friend who borderline emotionally abused you come back into your life, and everyone else LOVES LOVES LOVES them and you know what they're like...Happy

    Ugh...another rant.

    I wanna be a fashion designer...which sounds a lot like a pipedream a lot of other 14 year old girls have, but I'm serious about it. Like, to the point that I think about it at least twice a day, and am almost constantly thinking about how to make clothes or design them. I asked for a dress form for Christmas, for gods sake!

    But here's the thing...since it is a pipedream, every time I mention to any grown-up that I want to study fashion in NYC, I get a sad, condescending glance a shake of the head. Well, THAT'S encouraging, thanks! I know NYC is expensive. I know it's hard to make it as a designer. I know, I know, I know. Isn't the fact that I know all that, and still want it, and still have the drive to get it enough to prove to you that this matters to me?

    Why can't people just accept that I will not be going to medical/business/law school! I want to be a designer! Is that so bad?

    Why can't people take me seriously?

    We've definitely been cutting back...but we're actually managing pretty well, and in the process of paying off all of our debt...in about 10-11 months we should be debt-free!

    But we're doing pretty well, nothing drastic.

    Yeah, my family ignores me, and is condescending when they're not ignoring me. I still love them, but I really only talk to my dad, or my grandpa. It's not that they don't love me it's just that they don't really know what to do with me...my family (that is, mom, dad, brother, me) have always been kind of the black sheep of the bunch. So instead of TRYING to get along with me or maybe even talk to me, they just sweep me under the rug.

    Ugh.
