Brielle and I wore the same skirt to work today. Normal it wouldn't be problem, but we are going on a field trip to Leo Burnett. Brielle made me go home and change.

kirkland sunday

I spent the weekend in the Ohio. It was wonderful. 35 of us in one house. And I wouldn't have it any other way. It involved an awful dance, followed by a better dance, hot tubbing, a bonfire, way too much food. And the sites. And lots of Church history. And cute senior missionaries.

#murdermemonday

I spent 14 hours at work on monday. But the thing about it was that it
didn't feel that long. And they feed me a snickers bar and pad thai. I
was okay with that. I guess I picked the right profession. so it's
more like #ilikemyjob

chicago sunday (redo)

Conquered the heals. The boy is still up in the air. And my sisters came. We had dinner on the rooftop, walked a lot and went exploring.

an awfully big adventure

6fa16c9ff3f54c28bf5a95e3018cd5

I saw Peter Pan last night. Sheer magic. Just for the record. I do believe in fairies. I do. The last line of the play is "To live would be an awfully big adventure." And Peter was right. To live has been an awfully big adventure. From the big and the small. Every day is full of learning, danger, heartache, fun and beauty. What more could an adventure ask for? Just looking at the last year, life has thrown at me a lot. A car accident. Chicago. A crazy school schedule. Work. NYC. Friendships. Big decisions and small choices. But I knew what I was getting myself in for. So here is to adventure.

jump

Never waited at the edge of the cliff, with your toes hanging over, contemplating the choice. You charged full speed ahead into the water. While other kids hesitated, you acted.That same spirit never left. You shape your surroundings. Acting with command and assurance you always had the courage to step forward into progress.

candy room

I sit close to the war room at work. It’s great. I have my own spacious cubical and if the Creative Directors keep their doors open, I can see windows. I sit close to the war room at work. The war room is stocked with candy and Diet Coke. I’ve grown very fond of Kit-Kats lately.

chicago sunday

Shiny, blue paten heels. That was my weapon of choice on Sunday to get the attention of a certain young man. I could of chosen the black dress or red lipstick. But I was determined that the heels were it. Never mind the fact it was raining and I have to walk a good distance to Church. It didn’t matter. I was going to come off conquer. Of the heels and the boy. All was good for the first two blocks. Then the manhole cover got the better of me. I ended up with a scrapped up knee and a bruised ego.  Both missions failed. Next time I'll stick to nude flats.

airport thoughts

1. It's been a whirlwind two day
2. The color of your umbrella says a lot your personality
3. I have the best professors
4. It feels oddly familiar to meet up with advertising friends in NYC
5. I'm grateful for the ability to sleep anywhere.6. The best after parties don't involve alcohol. It's happens at Shake Shack.7. Clearly I don't drink alcohol because I don't even know how to spell it.8. Not everyone played GirlTalk growing up.9. Chicago is more my type. Sorry NYC.10. MTA elevators are really slow and smell funny.11. Traveling light is the way to go.
