"Amanda Bynes is once again pursuing her dream of a career in fashion. After some time off in recent months, the former child star is back in school at the Fashion Institute of Design &amp;amp; Merchandising (FIDM), her parents&amp;apos; lawyer Tamar Arminak confirms to Us Weekly.&amp;#xA0;\r\nBynes, 29, first enrolled at the school in early 2014 but stopped attending classes that fall, shortly before she was placed under a psychiatric hold for several weeks. She has since returned to the L.A. campus.&amp;#xA0;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;We are all so proud of her, and can&amp;apos;t wait to see her amazing designs on the runway someday,&amp;quot; Arminak tells Us of the Easy A actress.\r\nBynes&amp;apos; erratic behavior has been well-documented over the past few years, but she&amp;apos;s kept a much lower profile since leaving treatment last year. Shortly after her release, she tweeted that she was still seeing doctors weekly and taking medication.&amp;#xA0;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I am doing my best to get better,&amp;quot; she told Us in a statement via attorney David Esquibias in November 2014. &amp;quot;I am sorry for any pain I caused my family and others...I am thankful for everyone&amp;apos;s patience and understanding.&amp;quot;&amp;#xA0;\r\nIn July of this year, she made a rare public appearance at an event for Michael Costello and Style PR&amp;apos;s capsule collection launch in L.A., where she looked healthy and seemed to be in good spirits.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Amanda is doing great,&amp;quot; Esquibias told Us in June. &amp;quot;She appreciates all of the love and support she receives from family, friends, and fans.&amp;quot;\r\nSign up now for the Us Weekly newsletter to get breaking celebrity news, hot pics, and more delivered straight to your inbox!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
