I just received an email from Priscilla at Different Perspective Productions letting me know that they already have a logo presentation ready for me! WOW! That was incredibly fast. Guess the pressure I put on Rob, their Creative Director, to produce something mind-blowing worked even better than expected. A less than 48 hour turnaround from…
Disclaimer: the title of this blog is misleading. I’m sure you clicked on this blog post because you were anticipating a juicy story about me going to pitch a drink in someone’s face or something else truly mean and uncharacteristic for an optimist. Haha, fooled ya! I’m actually itching to do a pitch: meaning, a…
I met with the Creative Director at Different Perspective Productions today. Despite my still-gurgling belly [stupid stomach-flu!], it was an awesome occasion. The guy was both funny and intelligent, asking really great questions about my likes and dislikes in general. I felt like I was taking an oral Rorschach test, except that instead of receiving…

I assumed it was just my weekend catching up to me [crazy hat parties do that, you know], but it turns out I have picked up the dreaded stomach flu going through the office. Woohoo for…
[Disclaimer: This is very dorky/corny. You’ve been warned.] A mini-poem for those going through the post-holiday funk: Christmas has gone, The New Year has went, The time is now done, The hours long spent. “Back to work,” the people cry, “There is much to do!” The bills, they come! I must comply,…
I recently learned that my brother-in-law proposed to his gorgeous girlfriend on New Year’s Day. I am absolutely thrilled, as she is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. She’s kind, genuine, and ridiculously intelligent. Did I mention she’s beautiful? She is also the mother to my niece, who irrevocably stole my heart on…
Amidst the holiday break, the Director in my department sat down with the leadership team and asked us about our professional and personal goals for 2013. Most of us had very similar ambitions professionally [e.g. move up!] and only slight diversity in our personal goals – weight loss, run a marathon, go vegan, etc. It…
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt: The new Boeing 787 Dreamliner can carry about 250 passengers. This blog was viewed about 1,400 times in 2012. If it were a Dreamliner, it would take about 6 trips to carry that many people. Click here to see…
This is the best I can do with Adobe Photoshop CS6. Yeah, I’m a disgrace. If anyone can design me a cool logo, I’ll be your best friend forever. I’m also willing to pay a nominal sum – I am a college student, after all, so I can’t do much.
I cannot believe it’s already Christmas Eve. This has been the fastest year thus far in my life and it makes me both hopeful and fearful for what is to come. I’m excited for future growth, future experiences but nervous about the speed at which time passes the older I get. I always thought people…
