It was the day I had to show my (maybe) future school what I can do, and how I made the assignments they asked me to do a while back.
This is a graphic design school,where you create logo's, ads, and other stuff like that.
Something I've been doing for over 5 years now!
This assignments took me a lot of time, and I was proud of it!
After a boring random introduction we were separated into smaller groups, these groups were later found out, the different studies you had, because the school had one than one study.
We were given a place to show our creations.
Because I'd put everything in one map, I did not needed a lot space.
The biggest part of my portfolio consisted of A3 sized posters and other smaller creations.
Not smart to print, because it would ruin the images, and my crappy injet printer would not make the best of it.
So i thought it would be a lot easier to put this on a USB-Storage.
Because I went to the open day of the school, I know that there are at least 1000+ IMAC's in that building.
Filled my USB-Storage with over 4GB on portfolio material I was confidence this day would be a good day.
After a few minutes they'd took a tour around the students, and you had to tell about your stuff,this was easy in my opinion.
Something that bugged me was that there were a lot people who had been to other graphic schools before , and they owned a large portfolio of great pieces of art.
I had my excuse that I've been to a normal school, and that I couldn't take any art classes because it was a must you'd combined that with a foreign language as German or Frence, and I really suck in that.
They finally came to me, and I presented my items, when I asked which computer I could use to present my portfolio.(only that room was filled with over 30 Imac's )They told me that was no option!
So they started asking other questions, related to the study.
They seemed satisfied and they ended the conversation.
I was satisfied, and didn't worry tomuch about the USB problem.
We had to take a break, and they would discuss a bit.
30 minutes later, they wanted to talk with me again,they started with saying I'm not advised to follow any study.
The reason was that, they did not seen enough of me.
My blood was boiling at that moment!
If I had a knive I could seriously stab one of them because of this argument!
I HAVE A 5 YEAR PORTFOLIO ON THIS USB STICK AND YOU DON'T EVEN TAKE THE TIME TO SEE WHAT IS ON IT!
How could they!
After that, I take my stuff, without looking at them, and went home. listening some pure hardcore witch fitted the mood at that moment.
Because I was really pissed.
Now that I am home, I am cooled down again, and still really unhappy about this all.
Why can't they understand things like this?
Next to the USB problem they pointed about a problem with the assignments I had to make.
It was about a missing item on the website (I had to make a website layout..)
I pointed where I put that item because of some obvious reasons, and he'd give it to me.
But that did not change anything about the fact I got denied.
How can people like this judge like this.
It is so unfair!

I found you via one of my watchers. I hope you don't mind that I'm contacting you! Personally, I hate spam. But this is not exactly that. I'm just hoping you are willing to help me out by giving 1 minute of your spare time!
For school, I am doing research about FONT sites. If you ever use or download free fonts, would you then mind filling out my very short survey?
This is the link to the survey:

It would help me greatly!
Thanks in advance,
Have a nice day,
