Please Help with my FIDM Essay
Every kid had dreams of becoming something extraordinary: doctor; lawyer; chief executive officer... I was one of them. Dreaming to create and improve the future. For me, tomorrow is the future. I would always be fascinated with the decorative and colorful advertisements lining the metro station walls; the endless commercials broadcasting on television; and the intense to become the next Times Square billboard. I was that one and only kid who noticed the footnotes at the bottom of each ad.
It wasn't until after my internship with Sony Electronics that I realized how much I had already dedicated my life to Marketing and Industrial Design. During the six-week with a requested extra seventh week internship, I was able to provide a variety of ideas for their future products (but I cannot leak information due to contract regulations), many of which they had approved and incorporated into their plans. Even after this experience, I still have doubts about what I am going to do with my future. At this time, the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising contacted me and offered opportunities that I couldn't bear to decline, opening an entire new gateway to my dreams. It was then, I knew: FIDM was the place for me.
With over 40,000 happy and successful graduate alumni, FIDM guarantees its solid foundation; but it is not the history that matters much to me. It is the structure that stands out the most. FIDM offers a premium hands-on experience and higher education in the modern real world that is unavailable at many other prestigious universities. Students are allowed to freely explore their broad areas of their interests. With many more opportunities waiting for me, FIDM is an institution of higher education that created a new path for my future. Ex-CEO of Sony Electronics once said: "Don't chase money; follow your dreams and money will chase after you." FIDM enables me to do just that.
