Time flies, the upcoming summer vacation would be the busiest period during my three year college life. Two of my friends had decided to go to Australia to enjoy their life and take some part-time jobs at farm. I could not imagine that their salaries were 20,000 per week! The high consuming standard, however, would cost them lots of money. Maybe, one meal for 600$ was the common prize. Despite the expensive consuming standard in Australia, I still planned to go there next year.
This year, I would get my driver’s license of motorcycle. It was inconvenient for me to interview in different places. Sometimes, I had to transport MRT and bus for several tomes to reach the company. If I had gotten my license in this earlier summer, the length of commute would have been shortened into half. Finding job related to trade was not easy for an English majored student. Almost 90% of the trade companies required at least one year working experiences. Ironic as I felt, even if I took courses such as Marketing, Economics and World Trade Marketing Analysis, I still could not have courage to give it a try.
Luckily, the self-awareness reminded me of spending more time on this field and tried to work in a small company first to get used to how to deal with trade affairs. If possible, I would spare three hours at night advancing my Photoshop ability. The enthusiasm stimulated me to cultivate my hobby. Tired as I might feel, my summer vacation would not be completed without this software!

Design Exhibition
Hundreds of people lined up around the exhibition hall as I got off the bus. Through the same uniform they wore, I knew they were students from the same senior high school. To my astonishment, most of them were carefully reading the guide book and enthusiastically discussed which showroom they would visit first. Suddenly, three girls cheered that their friends were about to have a wonderful walk show on the exhibition. Standing among them, their vigor and energy quickly swept over every cells of my body. Phone rang and my friend yelled:”Where are you? I am stuck in the crowd of students. Where are you?” With puffs of breeze from the air conditioner, I was now steeping into the door of 2010Young Designer’s Exhibition to enjoy an innovative trip.
The Young Designer’s Exhibition founded in 1982 provided students from all over the world a stage to show their creative works. The exhibition was grand enough to include large varieties of design fields such as product design, package design, industrial design, interior design and visual communication design. Though this exhibition has been held for 28 years, it was my first time to attend it. To my amazement, some of the works were completed by students who spent money ranged from 40,000 to 175,000 dollar. What a money-consuming exhibition it was! I had never imagined that being a designer needed such an enormous expense which comprised 20,000 dollar for materials and 20,000 for place renting. High expenses as attending Young Designer’s Exhibition needed, it did build a bridge for students to connect to the world to fulfill their dreams.
Bored with a common fixed and rectangle bookshelf, one student came up with an idea to make a revolving bookshelf with spiral appearance. He spent almost 170,000 dollar to make his draft become a concrete one and finally won special price. Some companies even came to ask him if he was willing to cooperate with them to have the bookshelf listed. How a marvelous opportunity it was! In addition to this originality, with the consciousness of environment protection, a reducing garbage can was invented. Three triangle mirrors with two sides connected to one another to form a shape like an ice cream sundae would reflex the garbage thrown in the center. Two bottles through three mirrors could reflex at least six bottle images. Keep this multiplicative effect in mind. The designer’s appeal was to inform everyone of thinking twice before producing large amounts of garbage. I was surprised at student’s creative thinking but the works might have some disadvantages to be improved. The large production of mirrors to make this garbage can might cause pollution.
It was excellent that students could expand their design field deeply into our daily life. With the purpose of living a green and convenient life, most of students were targeted at finding solutions for current problems such as pollution or benefiting public. Though I was an English majored student, broaden my vision to design fields was my happiest moment to absorbing information and knowledge. As immersing myself in design exhibition, I was like a newborn baby who had curiosity of learning new things. 2010 Young Designer’s Exhibition would not be my last trip but become my first challenging one.
