It seems that every hour of the day the same thought rolls through my brain.
"I love my life!"
Honestly I don't know why this has been happening for months but I am not complaining. Each time this happens my stomach does a somersault, I want to scream, and I can't get the enormous grin off my face. This might be because my relationship is right where I want it to be, I feel like a woman and no longer a child, I have so much drive to succeed that I don't know what to do with, or that I feel like I have found my niche.
Recently I went on a graphic design field trip to minneapolis to visit multiple firms such as Yamamoto Moss, Schematic, and Capsule. The head designer at Capsule ended our presentation with this quote, "Just think, someday all of you will be paid to use your talents to create, explore and to help others succeed. Yes design is a business, and there are certain "things" that come with it. Anyplace you work will have that, but just think about what you get to do, what a great profession!" I still cannot stop thinking about how lucky I am. Recently I received one of my projects reports back to find out I got a 96 out of 100. My teacher wrote multiple comments like "Fun! Exciting!", "Wonderful!", "Very thoughtful!", "Excellent!". and to top it all off he wrote this on the bottom, "Great to have you in this class. You are/have the capabilities to go a long way! Great Job!" I think this will be framed.
This happiness doesn't only account for graphic design but also photography. If it weren't for my sister I would have never bought my first DSLR 3 years ago! Wow, I look back and I love seeing how far I have came. From just pointing and shooting to now being able to shoot in full manual mode with ease. I am so thankful for my education and work which help me strive for excellence. I am so thankful for those who let me steal them or their kids to take some pictures of so that I can learn the personal aspect of photography! Thank you Kirsten, Jade, Tiffany, Jenny, Janelle and many more to come!
I love that along with photography and graphic design come my art friends to whom inspire me(and I can talk all nerdy with) Thank you Tiffany L, Amber P, Josh K, Sarah C, and Sarah D!
My mind is running circles still so I hope this made some sense! Thank you to all of you out there who inspire me!
