Statement

I'm a genuinely enthusiastic person, who loves to have fun. I enjoy socialising and interacting with a range of different age groups, and as a result have a lot of amazing friends. I have worked in Cyprus for the last year as a nanny, which has extended my patience and organisational skills. I am open to trying new things, and as a result, have recently gotten over my fear of seaweed, to become qualified at sailing a dinghy. Yet I am also content to sit and read a book for hours on end.
I would like to be a part of your course, as my aim in life is to become a creative designer on major advertising campaigns, such as the Cadbury's 'Here today; Goo tomorrow' campaign.
