I asked one student who told me she lived in France,\u201cWhy come all the way over here to take classes at FiT?\u201d
\n\u201cI\u2019ll do anything I can to be surrounded by fashion, and you can\u2019t take classes like these anywhere else\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s dedication, and a lot of the students here really love what they do, they love fashion. That was kinda inspiring, considering I LOVE clothes and fashion and clothes and clashion (clothing and fashion together \u00a0in one word :D). \u00a0I, myself, am also considering whether or not I want to go into the enormous fashion field.<\/p>\n

Parting from FiT will indeed be such sweet sorrow, the photography, the weird looks when you run up to a student like \u201cHey, wanna take a picture?,\u201d the crazy stares just because I\u2019m that beautiful, walking into Room D130 and randomly voguing, prowling the office for more packs of sugar when I\u2019m trying to get my morning cup of tea \u201cjust right,\u201d sitting at my station editing tons of faces of students – it will all be missed dearly.<\/p>\n

Today is my last day here at FiT, and I\u2019d like to thank everyone for a great experience. Special Shoutouts (you know I had to :p) to Mr.Brian Edwards for being my photography mentor, and explaining to me his love of clowns, Marta for sharing with me the basics of the Polish language, Michele Nagel for being an awesome and scary head honcho, Paige for our mutual love of the 80\u2019s and Zebra Pants, Kareen for that awesome Wall Street Journal Jacket I\u2019ll be sporting this fall, Carissa for those lovely Asian gummies she blessed me with, Eddie for loving food as much as I do, Andrea for being my front office buddy (hope your vacation is quite dandy), Krystle for our mutual love of vintage clothing (Beacon\u2019s Closet here I come), Camille for understanding my Puerto Rican heritage (:p), Eduardo for his cool bags ^.^, and Rada for her lovely sweaters. A special shoutout to my crazy coworker Maria ^.X, good luck with the band; we\u2019re going back to 505!<\/p>\n

Hmph, I think that\u2019s everything. Love you FiT, we shall meet again someday. Couldn\u2019t have asked for a better summer this year.<\/p>\n

See you around readers!<\/p>\n

Best wishes,<\/p>\n

Ezekiel D.<\/p>\n

PS: Buffalo Exchange, Reminiscence, and just about every other thrift\/vintage in the Chelsea area, I may no longer be there to shop every day anymore, but I\u2019ll be back :\u2019)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
