It has all started because of my interest that matches so well in every factor Pratt institute has provided with, in which it is hard to....?(couldn't find strong word)
I have always known myself as being an artistic since I first took art class in primary school. I remembered the time in class, the time of enjoyment, excitement and happiness that I am able to draw and color. As I grow, the love of art has increased even further; I like the moment in which I can just express ideas and creativity with no limits since there are no right or wrong answers to art. I have begun to learn in more details on architecture when I got given this theme in GCSE. I spent lots of time doing researches, seeing many different buildings both from real life and internet, and have done a whole sketch books on it without a drop of sweat; it was great fun and I become devoted to it. However, just as much I have passion for art as well as math. I like math because of the amount of challenges it can offer one with and it never bore one. I never seen myself as a mathematician but I do keen on solving problems and like to take the challenge; this is when I started to realized that art and architecture is the field I would be willing to pursue my education and being dedicated to.
During the process of researching for college, I was first explored more of UK's universities of art and architecture but I feel as if it wasn't really for me with the campus and the curriculum. Therefore, I started to explore USA's universities and found Pratt. I was convinced to Pratt when I read the details, the curriculum that covers varieties of units such as the history and theory, the environment to planning, design and construction. In addition to all, I was influenced when I first visited the campuses during my summer holidays. I was impressed with the peacefulness of the campuses and the location of the institution itself, located in New York. I strongly believed that the location is as essential as choosing the major. I found New York City as the centre of place where all spectacular architectures has gathered in which benefits me; it is an energetic city with ranges of cultures and full of fascinated historical background for buildings, including Brooklyn campus at Pratt especially with the Victorian mansions lining the streets. Moreover, I very much like the idea offer for candidates at Pratt to develop their unique architectural education based on their goal throughout the last 4 semesters. I admire Pratt for every factor and do believe it is where I am belonging.
Hoping to accomplish with education is a plan for future that everyone would dream of. For me, after receiving a Batchelor degree in architecture, I would plan to further my knowledge by continuing with a Graduate program and further my experiences in helping my family's business of real estates which requires designing and constructing. Also, I hope to travel around and capture every amazing architectural structure so that one day I would be a professional architect that are well-known like, Frank Lloyd Wright. I understand that it is a long term process and a lot of hard work in which to become a professional architect but my strong ambitious, motivation and determination will always keep me up and succeeded in the goal I have eventually. I firmly believed that high-regarded institute like Pratt will be able to help me fulfill my dreams.
