A few months ago, I was invited to an International Students’ meeting at which LIM College’s administrators and faculty sought comments from us and wanted to discuss our experiences here.
LIM College isn't my first education experience in the U.S. Prior to coming here, I went to a boarding high school for 4 years, so by the time I started college I was quite used to the lifestyle of studying abroad.
Here are some of my favorite spots around the LIM College campus in the middle of New York City.
It was one hell of a winter this year in New York City. It is usually quite mild here (I might have a different standard since I went to high school in Maine), but the Polar Vortex caught us all off guard.
I am sure everyone has a class they like more than any other class in their schedule, and for me last semester that class was Statistics with Professor Nonoyama.
My old roommate Kingsley used to work at Versace, which is why I was invited to the Versus Versace event last May, where they unveiled the collection by J.W. Anderson.
There are so many opportunities to get involved in fashion in New York City -- you just have to be willing to put in some effort. When I was in my Styling class freshman year, I worked as a volunteer at a fashion presentation for the brand Ainsley.
Here are some of my favorite spots to hang out when I am not studying fashion.
