Hair,Work,Life and Stickers

 

Helloooo Everybody!

           As you know before Christmas I made the big chop on my hair: above is a pic of the "do" on Valentines Day. One of my original intentions with this blog was to share my unemployment journey. Well, I'm employed, I've been employed since 2012 possibly the end of 2011. When I was unemployed I think I spent about 6 months unemployed mostly because I was being lazy but I did make money hustling school books and art on amazon and ebay. When I finally did fid official working 2012 it was mostly contract work.

        Today I currently hold 3 jobs, 1 retail gig at a book store that I enjoy so much more than the one I quit (West Elm) and I'm an official (paid) arts and crafts instructor AND I'm a Publishing Operations Assistant :) Ironically at one job I work literally across the street from the job I escaped.

      I've been working on my illustration skills. I often post little ACEO pieces on instagram. I'm working on a series of cheap stickers I was hoping for some input or advice on what kind of stickers would you guys buy (ex. fan art, dr.who, original cuteness etc. The reason for this is I want to make some money to go to Costa Rica in the Summer to see one ofmy best friends any way I can make money I'm on it. Any who, I'm going to try to stay consistent with weekly posts.  


Later!!!

December Favorites :)

1.

This post is looooong overdue but I want to share my December favorites with you!

Let me start with books!

As some of you may know I work multiple jobs. One job I have is working at a children's book store and I have to admit a bulk of the books I read are picture. Especially since we do story time!!!

One of my FAVORITE stories Especially around Christmas time is.

 How the Grinch Stole Christmas. 

Oh Dr.Seuss, you never cease to fill my heart with childish joy :) 

“And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow,
stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.”

 

2.Christmas Decor-City lights, Holiday display, the smell of things roasting /baking/ cooking!!!  

 

3. 

The Cliche Charlie Brown Christmas special is a Must :)  

 

4.

Hot Chocolate from the Max Brenner Booth in Bryant Park...No better way to stay nice and toasty while your out there (next to a scalding apple cider that is!!!) 

 

5. 

 

Disney's Frozen!!!

Let me count the ways...How I love thee.

The music, the Ice Castles, twist ending.
