LEA SPEAKS: The unique exterior wall of the school building always grabs my attention as a designer. My day always starts with a cup of coffee as my [inaudible].
VISUAL: LEA is on her computer.
LEA SPEAKS: My name is Lea. I'm from France. Currently I'm studying abroad as an international student in Melbourne. In RMIT I'm doing business courses. I'm always fascinated in interactive design, so I want to be an outstanding technical designer and run my own company in the future. Taking business courses at the RMIT could give me the global management vision that I can apply into practice when I run my own business in the field of designing.
VISUAL: RMIT students collaborating on their laptops.
LEA SPEAKS: I do love working with people. The business project gives me a great opportunity to experience how to collaborate with people from all walks of life and manage a team. They are not only my project members, but also my good friends. We share our own future or ideas and our interest of life.
VISUAL: LEA is in the classroom. She walks outside.
LEA SPEAKS: Whenever I want to be on my own to let my mind wander around with all the new ideas and inspiration, it's easy to find a nearby natural spot around RMIT as the school is located in the heart of the city.
VISUAL: LEA in the park, and then a montage of Melbourne’s city streets, trams and buildings. Text on the screen reads: “In Melbourne, I have seen the most beautiful sunset in my life.”
LEA SPEAKS: I feel Melbourne is a magic city. It's a great place to travel to today and to live. What I've gained from here is more than what I expected. Melbourne is 9,600 kilometres away from Paris, but sometimes I feel like I'm living in my own country in Europe. I feel like home.
