my fashion studies in 2012

up until now i have been two parts completely nervous and one part excited for my debut fashion studio subject at uni next year. up until now my subjects have been purely theoretical. i will be taking a fashion illustration course next semester as well.
the studio subjects are about 12 contact hours per week for 2 years..and in fourth year that increases to about 20 hours per week ! insanse.

i remembered this promotional video made with this year's QUT Fine Arts (Fashion) students (i haven't yet done studio as my double degree structure is slightly different, and so if you simultaneously study Business + Fashion, you do not do any practical work until the 3rd semester).
in any other context, the exciting factors that are mentioned such as the distinct family vibes that develop over the teaching period, and the creative / open atmosphere, would seem to be a cheesy marketing ploy..to my cynical self at least.
but i've seen people graduate from these courses, and i have seen / heard how much they value the relationships that they have formed during their time studying.

+ so after re-watching this video, i have become less nervous about my self-taught skills, and just thankful that i was offered a place, amongst the few others that were.:



bring on 2012.
