My dear reader,
Years from now this very moment will be marked as the one that changed the course of history. Hogwash? Of course not. Now I am no psychic. I am only speculating but who can deny it - like all great stories they need a beginning.
My prequel lasted eight years in university and college. For me it is about the idea: how it works and its function. Sure I was pulled into advertising by its flash. Like Fonzie’s charm or the way Kawhi stole Toronto’s heart - I guess the board man did get paid. Back on topic! While in school I learned about ideas: their power and candour. How they pull people in and excite them. That feeling of creating them is addicting, and that’s why I’m in this business. I want to create something clever and unique and say to my future kid one day, “I did that”, and their response will be a speechless roll of the eyes.
The key word was speechless. Unlike my unborn-not-entirely-sure-if-I-will-have-kids kid, I do not intend our relationship going into the speechless phase. I would like to hear from you. If you are the shy one in this relationship I will do the heavy lifting and follow up with you, because I was born to be somebody. Those were not my words, they were Bieber’s, and what better way to end a cover letter than to quote him.
Thank you for your time,

P.S. I don’t listen to Bieber, unless that is what you are looking for. Then in that case I do.
