My dad spoke to me the second time.

He told me to take his retirement fund and get myself a degree.

It touched my heart and I nearly broke into tears.

They had given me their full support for me to study fashion design.

But I had chosen otherwise.



My mum waited for my dad to fall asleep before sneaking into my room and asking me why I didn't try other schools.

I told her that it was for the same reasons which I couldn't overcome, not at this point of time.



Then I showed her the course fees for temasek polytechnic fashion design as well as La Salle SIA fashion design.

And I turned to her and said,"Well, that's why I'm cutting up my own clothes."
