One of her question was why did i choose to be a fashion designer?
It made me think of something bad i did when i was in college. I always wanted to be a fashion designer but my dream shattered when my dad insisted on practical subjects such as marketing...bla bla bla. I followed his order but kept failing in every subject :p
I couldn't stand being the least-bright one in class and decided to secretly enroll in a fashion design course without his knowledge. He found out only on my convocation day. I remember him asking, why is the fashion show so long and when is the graduation ceremony starting? Then i confessed. He was speechless and shocked. Finally when they announce that I won the best collection, my dad cheered and jumped. I guess my passion and hard work have changed his mind and from that day onwards he gave me his full support in my fashion career path. Thank you Daddy!

Alicia ended by buying some of my creations after the interview. Yes, keep supporting the local designers!
You've really got guts! To enroll in a fashion course without your dad knowing - I think that's amazing story on pursuing what you love to do.
