Update

Spring Break is officially over and I am back at school up to my neck in work that I will probably procrastinate till about 5 or 6 PM tonight. So far my day has been pretty busy, but I thought I should at least update everyone on what I have been up to and what my plans are for this coming week. Well, I told you earlier in the year that one of my goals this year was to start up a progressive lifestyle/streetwear brand and it looks like it might become a joint venture with a couple of my hometown friends and will hopefully happen. We are looking for a Summer Sample Collection for Friends & Family, but beyond that we are planning a Fall/Winter Collection of a couple tees and maybe a sweatshirt. I'll be sure to keep everyone in the loop as well make you aware of an official blog or website when it is launched.

Aside from that...yesterday was SUPER AWESOME!

Slow Week

So I am currently on Spring Break, but I am here to fill you in on my week that preluded to this semi-wonderful time of doing nothingness (which is a blessing.)! This past week I had a couple of papers due and definitely a lot of other miscellaneous things in my schedule. I tried to keep myself open this semester and took the bare minimum course load hoping that I would find what I would like to do with my life. I think I have finally come to a decision about my major and my future. Interested are you? Well I am going to keep it under wraps for a bit or at least until I have a meet with my counselor. Beside that though I am still working on plenty of side projects and looking to undertake some more for my own personal amusement.

I had a Focus Trip this past weekend!
My advice to people carrying the word:

Have major points and keep things simple. Never discount the Holy Spirit.
Pray, Pray, and Pray. God will move no matter how much you suck.

My life is like super syncretized and I don't even mean for it to be... -_-;
I've been told I'm pretty OCD, but my room sure isn't a testament to that statement though.
I did spend my afternoon yesterday, for the most part, finding album art and fixing up my Itunes library. I also signed up to start receiving IKEA catalogs in the mail! Next year my MAUNEY GROUND FLOOR ROOM will be IKEA'd out on my side! Swedish Modern Furniture Love!














Put this on my gift list :)

Note to Self: Get serious about life.

Design?

So lately I have been taking into account how I literally live my life. What do I want my life to say about myself? If someone wrote a biography on me, well, would the words be appropriately affixed to the image I see myself having? Let's see...I am 18 years old and I have minute addictions to two main things which I am sure you can guess what they are. In both senses I take on the motto of quality over quantity. I am also in my mind a minimalist and I'm definitely trying to put that more into action. The more concisely you can say something, in my mind of course, the better it comes across and more of an impact it has. Why? Cause in this day in age, you only have brief moments of attention from anyone or anything that you can capitalize upon. Live life with as little things as possible is my mindstate. Quite contradictory to the addictions I have, right? Well the less you have the less you lose.

They say that you're no good.
And they can see right through you.
Still you're misunderstood.

My Rocking Thursday...so far!

Good afternoon inhabitants of Planet Earth.

I am currently sitting in my friend Michael Heredia's room waiting upon my laundry to finish drying as well as killing time before my New Testament class. So far it has been a lovely day aside from my lost laundry basket (my SECOND one!) and I'm looking forward to hitting downtown Shelby later for an impromptu photo session. The new camera which I have yet to name has become quite an important piece of the arsenal of my life. Before, I never liked taking pictures of people but that is slowly changing. Being able to look down at the screen and see a smiling face has definitely been a wonderful change of pace to the world I usually see. At the same time though...capturing reality and emotions in general are just as powerful and moving.
