I'd like to think myself as a passionate person. When I fall in love with something deeply, I make sure I show it shamelessly. Such is my shameless love displayed in my collection of shoes for the past years in college. For five semesters, there has been rarely a book on my bookshelves. Instead, spot lights are installed and panels wiped clean just to illuminate my painstakingly positioned collection of Puma sneakers. I find such joy and satisfaction in seeing beautiful, wearable designs displayed in my room. The very result of someone's years of learning, experimenting, and designing made physical and now rests in its final glory on my bookshelf. I find some sense of honor and privilege in comprehending this truth. My love for Puma sneakers is also the very same love that helped me made through my sophomore year in Industrial Design when I started to have doubts about my major. When the projects were ill planned and the curriculums seemed weak, I would find myself hoping to quit and switch into the Business school so that I can have a structured, linear education like my friends. Fortunately, I was once again reminded of my dream whenever I look to my collection, the dream of working for a shoe design company and being the author of my own passion.
In Industrial Design, I see the value of creation. When Industrial Design placed tools of mass production and skills of visualizing design in my hands, dream designs were no longer dream designs, they are now dreams to be designed. Industrial Design is not merely a career, but an open field where I can be free.
