Goodbye January!
I have to say that January was a great month! 2012 rocks already!
School’s going pretty good! I’m finally getting into a good groove with it. I no longer feel like the confused kid from that first week. I’m having fun with my projects too. I’m currently working on a new transit map for Charlotte’s light rail, crazy, but fun. I’m also grateful that I have knowledge and tools already to challenge myself and make great projects.
The weather has been so warm this month! It’s great because I’m walking the dogs almost every day. We all enjoy it. Last week I even had the front door opened, which the dogs loved. Molly brought her bone and sat next to the screen door, getting fresh air and sun. Even the plants got put outside from some fresh air. Once the mornings get consistently warmer, I’d like to get into running again. My goal is to run a half marathon by the end of the year.
I’ve finally got out of my cooking rut and have been making great things. Also getting a subscription to Cook’s Country totally helps! (thanks rob!) I made single serving chicken pot pies, chili, chicken noodle soup, sour cream biscuits and sage biscuits that we made into breakfast sandwiches.
I’ve just been keeping myself and my life real positive this month. I’ve been reading The Secret and The Power and it’s totally been helping. Such simple messages, but it just really inspires me to be happy, full of gratitude and love. I had some pretty rough months last year that put me at my lowest, so it feels so good to be happy. I feel like my old self again! And yeah, things are not prefect yet, but I’m not letting it bring me down because I have the confidence that it will all work out.
Err…excuse me!
Ack! How did that end of the month post get posted? I was still working on it…hence no pictures and such.
Ummm….let’s look some cows!
Profile: Effie Trinket
EFFIE TRINKET
HER TRIBUTES AREN’T THE ONLY THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD TO THIS SEASON.
With a keen eye towards cutting edge trends and a willingness to break boundaries, Capitol-born style icon and District 12 Escort Effie Trinket has been a fashion pioneer since her very first Hunger Games. She has been known to take the iconic building blocks of contemporary Capitol fashion such as sleeves, hairpieces and bold colors and craft stunning looks that go on to influence all of Panem’s fashion-forward citizens. Whether she is chauffeuring her latest Tributes or walking the boulevards of the Capitol, Effie maintains an exquisite profile that demonstrates her spirit and the pride she takes in her work.
When it comes to the day-to-day, Effie likes to complement her exquisite full body polish with audacious garment selections paired with dazzling footwear such as the daring 24-Karat McQueen peep-toes she was recently spotted wearing in the City Circle. It’s no surprise Capitol designers are literally lining up to create her next pair. And who wouldn’t? When it comes to shoes, Effie’s got sole. “The higher the heel the better. I just love love love dropping by the City Circle in my perspex-heeled metallic booties!”
Ok, how awesome is this? A tumblr blog for the fashion from the Capitol (hunger games). Totally smart publicity!
Rob and I just got into Portlandia and are totally loving it.
It’s like indie comedy about things that only indie people and hipsters get. Like the speakeasy mixology skit where the guy makes a mixed drink with like trash and shit and it tastes awesome. There’s one where they put a bird image on all these products because stuff with birds sells more.
Totally gotta check it out!

Here’s my first school assignment that I get to share.
