agreed?

true i find that most people tend to overreact about small things going wrong in their everyday lives. well maybe because of those people always surrounding me. but life is a beautiful gift from above so why do you want to spend so much time complaining. when you think about it all those worries are useless in the end. what kinda things would you stop doing if you knew that it had no significant meaning to it. why would someone want to burden others with their stress and worry and unhappiness anyways. so much that we are blessed and priviledged with. be anxious for nothing but in everything take it to God in prayer.

thank you for the silver moon

just when you think your days are gonna stay neutral and routine-ish God just completely changes that around. i haven't felt this inspired and uplifted in a long time. there was a moment the other day where i had to stop and think about how great my day was and the happiness i got out of it. life is beautiful.

i cannot wait

two a like







flipping through my Communication Arts magazine fresh from the mailbox. never fails to keep my attention but this time i came across an illustrator from Italy-Noumeda Carbone. this girl captures my imagination better than anyone else and i think i can safely say that this is what i always picture creating: constant form of simple lines, full of everyday detail and texture building up on each other to make a whole.


im excited for what God has planned for me.

now where'd my pencil go....

so yesterday i walked into borders and find myself sitting in the children's book area. im looking everywhere for those I SPY books and come across a book that looks nice just from the outside. if this book was made for kids than they have something to look forward to. it's all based on the authors view of finding a goal and inspiration in life and "chasing that red rubber ball" without hesitation. the pictures and ideas are so clever and effective, i wish this was around when i was younger. but then again i am still a kid!

¿de dónde viene esto?

creativity was never thought of something that can just appear and dissapear whenever you want it too. trying to force ideas to come out willy nilly can lead to ideas that aren't so great, i think. it's so funny the way designs and ideas pop into your mind. lately being with certain people and in certain situations really help my creative juices flow and flow and flow some more. thinking about it makes me laugh. these ideas are overwhelming sometimes because you can picture everything in your thoughts perfectly without flaws and you get excited which makes you think even more about things to paint, to draw, to design and it keeps you in the same cycle of creative thinking that it makes the people with you even more likable. now if only i had a pencil and paper to keep all those ideas in check.

right as rain

I don't know how Jesus did it. Being so forgiving no matter what, all the time. I try so hard to follow his example but i swear im being tested all the time. I don't find it hard to be forgiving, that hasn't been a problem. Except for that one person. That one man who i just can't seem to completely forgive. I could care less sometimes about all the favors he does. He can never make up what immature and childish acts he's done and im definitely not the only one who trusts this assertion. It's beginning to feel like a huge weight. My mind is ru n n in g everywhere it shouldn't.

my inner Blair Waldorf?

had a photoshoot for apocore tv, very successful i think. but trying to bring out the gossip girl in me? not so successful. modeling was a little more tricky than i thought. its a good thing im not using my face as a talent. that wouldn't take me far. goodbye forever Blair!

Reinhold Niebuhr

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
