Reflection: I would actually like to be a fashion designer but not as my main profession. I would like to be a fashion designer because i like how they use their creativity to come up with something new. It fascinates me on the idea of how something can just be a thought and then an actual thing. I like this career a lot because it talks about self expression and that is what i'm all about. So i’ll probably look into this job more.
