THE SCARS OF YOUR LOVE
[/size]remind me of us - - - - - -[/center]
TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN,
-my father says that i should always start any letter like this to show respect for my superiors. not that i like to think of others higher then me. anyway, daddy says that i must act with respect in order to gain respect so this lovely penmanship is said to do just that-
i am lux nott and i'm writing this letter because i would love to internship for your magazine under the fashion section. i want you to know that i live for fashion, and while you may hear that often, i can promise you it is extremely true in my case. you see, my entire life revolves around the perfect combination of colors, patters, and accessories. since i was a child i have loved to both model my own fashion trends and inspire my friends to do the same.
- well. i'm lux, obviously, but you could call me luxy or just plain lux once you get to know me. or at least my family does. maybe you can't because i should keep it professional and call me ms. nott. so i'm sure you hear that far to often 'i live for fashion' but truly i do. as a child, and falling into the shadow of my big older sister and loosing every battle when it came to my mother, it tends to be daddy who i have wrapped around my finger and he was the one who paid my shopping tabs, i turned to fashion as a sense of escape. it was the one way i could express myself as a child without verbally or physically hurting someone. my mother wouldn't have been fond of that, you see. anyway, out of my big sister and i, i have always been the one to stand out, and that bullocks of inspiring my friends? what friends do i possibly have? i don't have friends as much as i have a group. we're close if only for appearance. i like to think it's because i'm highly attractive and spectacular but really they only keep me around is because i'm charming and of very high pureblood status. well whatever, i don't need a best friend as long as i work for this magazine then i'll be famous and once i'm famous there is no telling how far i will go.-
coming from a pureblood background, and having had the chance to live in france the past summer with my grandparents on my mothers side, i was able to study in one of the prime capitals for fashion in the world. i was able to expand my own wardrobe and experience a real life take of fashion that you can't experience from reading magazines or simply dressing with style. i was able to take it all in, talk to fashion icons, and develop my own sense of fashion .it was a learning experience,
-well i did come from go to france but i rally only have an english background. daddy and mother were always an interesting match, nonetheless, they are my family and i love them, but there are some things that i can't stand when it comes to being a nott. iit wasn't so much of a visit as it was me trying to escape the life i live at home. i don't think daddy ever really got over that i wasn't meant to be like him and the rest of the family. and having constantly felt pressured to be perfect, to be like my big sister was hard for me. not only that but he wants to marry me off. i'm betrothed to some bloke. i'm sure he's handsome and has a great deal of money but i do want a little more out of life then what my mother has. which i think is why she resents me. because i can actually go places and she's stuck here. a simple pureblood life was just not in the cards for me. i needed to breathe, so i convinced my father to let me go to france. i claimed that it was to help develop more in the fashion world, which in a way it was, but also because i needed to be in a place that didn't look at me and instantly see an acting out prissy girl. so i got to go and boy did i have fun. lets leave it at that.-
so what makes me qualified for this job, other then my love for fashion and common sense? well i'm extremely ambitious and will prove that even though i'm only seventeen, that i can work with a mature attitude like any rational adult. i'm highly intelligent and have a strong sense of wits about me. i know that i would have to work hard, and it's that commitment that i'm willing to take.i'm headstrong and determined and this can be seen in all the work in hogwarts thus far and all of my achievements. this has been a dream of mine since i was a little girl, and the idea of being able to fulfill it is exhilaration and an opportunity that i would never dream of passing up.
-like hell would i ever pass up an opportunity like this. when i first heard about it, the quill was the first thing that i grabbed along with this piece of parchment. as for my ambitious attitude, well that isn't want i would call it. i would call it doing whatever it takes to get to the top and not caring who i step on. if their in the way then they didn't move quick enough. act like a rational, mature adult? well it's something i've never tried. i do like to be the center of attention and if something doesn't go my way i tend to blow things way out of proportion, but i could give it a try if that's what would get me the job. the part about commitment makes me laugh though. me and commitment? well we don't go hand and hand. mother says that's the one thing she can't stand about my 'attitude.' she hates the fact that i start things and don't finish them. it's not that i don't have the drive to see a project through, it's just that i sort of get cold feet and can never actually see something actually complete. the same thing goes for me and guys. but i'm certain that this project, this internship, would change my attitude when it comes to commitment, of course quidditch is also something i've stuck to. since i was a third year and got my broom, quidditch is something i've been fairly good at if only because i like to see the surprise on everyone's face when i, a complete girly-girl can step out on the pitch and kick butt. anywho, i am pretty headstrong and stubborn. i'm blunt and attack things with a force. i like to get my name and my words out there. which can be seen as something negative, but i think of it as honesty. as for my attitude, i'd say i'm fairly optimistic but i do have my pessimistic views. in a pureblood world you can be anything but naive.-
i would like to thank you for your time and for reading this letter and for keeping me considered for such a grand opportunity. i can't wait to hear from you in the future.
-you better pick me or my daddy will avada kedavra your ass-
sincerely,
lux estella nott
