You get home from elementary school. It’s a Thursday, and your older sister is still in cheerleading practice. Your mother is already in the kitchen starting preparations for dinner. She smiles when she sees that you are home. You pull up a barstool to the counter and begin to tell her all about your day. 

You sit with your mother as she prepares dinner, but you do not help. If you offer, she will say no. You do, however, watch every move she makes. Tonight is mac and cheese night, your favorite. She starts with the milk and then adds flour. Since she’s in a good mood, you get to stir as she adds salt and cheese, letting the cheese melt into gooey perfection as the smell fills your kitchen. 

You get one spoonful, and she decides to give you some macaroni noodles to accompany it, since you are her “little taste-tester.” You tell her it needs more cheese even though it doesn’t. She adds the cheese, stirs it, and offers you another spoonful. This time, you say it is perfect. Your mother lets you dump the noodles into the cake pan, and she pours the cheesy goodness over them. She pops the tray into the oven while you stand on your tiptoes and set the timer for one hour. 

Your mother glances at the clock, and you head to the car. It is time to pick up your sister.

 

Hello! My name is Allison Hambrick, and I am a senior at the Atlanta campus of Savannah College of Art and Design pursuing my BFA in Writing with a minor in dramatic writing. Through my writing, I hope to inspire, to entertain, and to empower others to be the best versions of themselves. My interests outside the realm of writing include binge watching, reading comic books, drinking too much tea, and playing video games, and I may or may not still be waiting for my Hogwarts letter to arrive in the mail.

High-spirited fashion designer with sound knowledge about the management and promotional aspects of the industry. My inquisitive nature enables me to discover efficient ways of streamlining marketing approaches to reach target audience. The process of translating various topics into a collection of garments after intensive research and visual development, makes me feel empowered because it is a unique medium of self-expression. However, I am fully aware of the importance of marketing a product in order to gain the best results which makes me equally passionate about both the aspects of Fashion World
