new blog kismetandcompany.wordpress.com

wild at heart

well, i did it today. i have been in the process of trying to figure out wordpress & i think i'm finally comfortable enough for it to be my official blog.


i have imported all my posts from here over & now just need to do a few more adjustments. both blogs will still be active for a while :)

new address: kismetandcompany.wordpress.com

going through the photographs

so i am officially the worst at remembering to take pictures.
over the weekend i went to the beach for formal & have no picture to show for it. oops....

remember the post about david carson the graphic designer? we were given the task to design a poster for a gallery show of our designer of choice. i turned in my first digital draft this morning, here's what i have so far:


i think i'm going to tackle my website this afternoon at work, after these 2 long hours of religion class.....

(p.s. that is a david carson quote, i'm can't make up cool quotes like that)

hmmm today.

this morning was rough. i only slept 5 hours, which is typical for me now since i have to be at work/school at 8 am (except wednesday's when i get to be lazy & come in at 9:30) & i don't usually fall/go to sleep till midnightish or later.
i'm leaving right after work to head to cary to see my grandma, so i packed last night, but taking my bags out & down to the car this morning was a chore. i also didn't like anything i tried on & changed my shirt 4 times & my sweater twice :( i feel boring in my clothes today but i guess you can't win em all huh?

i did however have enough time between my animation class this morning & my religion class this afternoon to get a manicure (really needed it/wanted it).

check out my new color, jade is the new black by opi.

it matches the writing on my starbucks cup well.
