First Week In February! Top 5!

So as any blogger will tell you, a blog takes time! The length of time each post takes obviously varies quite a bit, the next one for Spring/Summer 2012 Manifesto has tied but me quite a bit but I've taken a break to share my week!


This week has been has been a bit heavy hence my lack of entries. Between what feels like working on let's just say the 'less than ideal hospitality project', taking charge of my career and where I want to go, grad school deadlines, missing out on hearing one of my most respected colleagues speak and working through week 2 of my best friend/roommate/handy man leaving me for Gensler NY and KY basketball, being less than purrrfect, things have been a challenge.


But let's be straight, I say all of this not to bitch. Honestly. It's just to prove the point that we all have out own stuff going on and different challenges each day. So even on the outside if it looks like someone has all the bells and whistles we've all got stuff going on!


But here are my top 5 highlights that kept me either away from my blog or served as my fuel for the week!


1. Building my desk and pedestal from IKEA in preparation for my iMAC. I did it all by myself :)

2. This photo I got via text with the caption"I didn't know you become super gay if your about to get hit by a car." I laughed the hardest I have all week! (Men of my gay pose, you know who you are, and you know this is funny. No hate mail please. :)

3. Kelley Bozeman, the director of marketing at the University of Kentucky made my day twice! First by asking me if I would like to be profiled in the 2012 Prospective Student marketing campaign and then added that DanceBlue has announced they reached capacity of dancers on the floor. I still get all choked up just thinking about how proud I am of DB!! And very flattered! Thanks Kelley! :)

4. My Xmas/"I'm sorry I'm moving and not able to bring you Starbucks in bed on the weekends anymore." present from Troy. It has made 3am nights and 7:30am wake ups slightly easier...

5. And finally finishing my Project B for Typography I. A redesign of the book cover "The Fountainhead." It's a hardcover wrap so image it wrapping a book. I'll post more pics at a later date! :)

PS If you knew this all already, I'm sorry. One of my biggest pet peeves is people repeating themselves! :)
