thank you.
I definately do not want to do anything law related, but you gave some ideas, thanks.
and magazines is my big big love also, i'd love to work for some magazine, but it's as hard to get in there as anywhere else...

i'm happy that we have the fashions spot

It sounds like you do not want to go to school anymore if you can't get that one program. So ... you will have to consider working in fashion somehow ... maybe in another country.
Working in the US requires that you have an employer that will sponsor you and so you have to be already establised in somewhere else, before they will allow you to work here. So ... you have to be doing something for at least 2 years (maybe longer) ... in your creer area that you intend to work in, when you come to NY, before you will be considered for a U.S. work permit.
So ... if Paris is a possibility, I would say try that first. I don't know what the requirements are to work there, as a Lituanian. But it might be easier than the U.S. I do know that you must be fluent in French to work there, or they just won't hire you.
How about Antwerp or Milan ... they are both fashion hubs?
You say you have some legal education ... can you use that in the fashion industry somewhere? Designers, retailers, fashion houses all need attorneys for various purposes ... contact law, intellectual rights, negotiations ... things like that. Maybe work as a law clerk in a firm that specializes in the fashion industry?
Or work for a PR firm that specializes in fashion ... in Paris or wherever, if you can find a job like that.
How about a fashion magazine ... working in any deptartment that will have you ...just an other idea.
