Script:
There was a period of time for me where I was -just somewhat lost
Like there was something missing that missing in my life that I couldn’t really figure out
Where I’m from everything was very driven by sports
I played everything, ranging from basketball
To soccer
To football
Too baseball
I very good and at these activities but they just didn’t do it for me
This was eating away at me
It became very frustrating because I had all of these people around me who had these different passions and i was there involved in nothing I truly loved
Then it hit me
I was watching a music video and was looking at their artists perform
The music was great but there was something more that stuck out to me
The clothing
I started researching these clothing brands and became obsessed
Starting off at low end street wear companies to researching and learned about the biggest high end fashion houses in the world
I ended up finishing out those sport seasons but never went back once they started back up
I ended up taking the time where i would be in practice, to instead using that time to travel in the Manhattan and the other boroughs to visit various retail shops, thrift stores, and places to purchase fabric
I would do this all the time and as frequently as I could
I became enamored with the fashion industry as a whole
I fortunately had opportunities to go visit things like limited Channel exhibits and go visit showrooms for different retailers
All it took was that music video to spark in my mind what I have already had
The void that I thought was once there was there no more.
