My dream has always been to work somewhere in an area between fashion and publishing. Two years before graduating from secondary school, I took a sewing and design course thinking that I would move on to a fashion design course. However, during that course I realized I was not good enough in this area to compete with other creative personalities in the future, so I decided that it was not the right path for me. Before applying for university I told everyone that I would study journalism, because writing was, and still is, one of my favourite activities. But, to be honest, I said it, because I thought that fashion and me together was just a dream — I knew that no one could imagine me in the fashion industry at all! So I decided to look for some fashion-related courses that included writing. This is when I noticed the course “Fashion Media & Promotion.”
参考译文
我的梦想一直是在时尚与出版之间的某个领域工作。在中学毕业前两年，我选修了一门缝纫与设计课程，以为自己会继续去学时装设计课程。然而，在那门课程中，我意识到自己在这一领域的能力不足以在未来与其他有创意的人才竞争，因此我决定这条路并不适合我。在申请大学之前，我告诉所有人我会学新闻学，因为写作一直是我最喜爱的活动之一。但说实话，我之所以这么说，是因为我认为时尚与我在一起只是一个梦想——我知道根本没有人能想象我在时尚行业！于是我决定寻找一些包含写作的时尚相关课程。就是在这时，我注意到了“时尚媒体与推广”这门课程。
翻译思路
翻译要点：①area between fashion and publishing译“时尚与出版之间的领域”；②creative personalities译“有创意的人才”；③was just a dream译“只是一个梦想”；④注意破折号之后的解释性从句；⑤整段意思连贯，注意 I said it的指代关系（指“我说自己要学新闻”这件事）。
