My Talented Friends #2

A Jackie of all trades is exactly what my friend Paola is. The girl writes music, acoustic and  electric, and takes some really beautiful, truthful photographs.  Her blog is called Light Body Eye. She uses film for all of her photo's and they are some of the most uniquely composed and executed pictures I've ever seen. (Not to mention this girl is my soul mate) My favorite set of photo's is a series called persephone maiden it was inspired by the Greek myth of Persephone, maiden of the Spring and Queen of the Underworld. 
 This is my favorite from that series. Enjoy!!


 Cheers,

My Talented Friends #1

I love having artistic friends! The next 3 blog posts are going to be about my talented friends!!

This is my friend Jo...the other JoJo as it may be :) Joanna Eberts is an illustration major at RIT, who is both incredibly sweet, and a mettle head.  Her art spans that same range from fun and cute to classic beauty and trow in a few demon horses and a zombie lady and you have some really incredible art work.

She drew this of me, my brother, my friend Paola, and  her at the Mat and Kim / Spoon concert we went to this summer.  We had an amazing time!!  Check out her blog!


Cheers!!

So here is the deal...Life is good!

I officially have the most baller internship of all time!! I'm working for the amazingly talented new couture designer Nicholas Lindsey helping with PR for NYC fashion week. The majority of my job is sending e-mails and finding contact information to invite people to his show which is admittedly a little tedious but I'm a nerd and I love doing it. 

Part of the deal is that I'm moving to NYC in September!!  I wanted to do this anyways but this has given me the extra push to jump in with both feet. Now all I need to do is pack... oh crap... packing!!!  I have roughly 15 days to pack!!!! I have no idea what to take with me or how much! Right now I have 3 categories of things I need.
1: Things for Musical Theatre
2: Things for PR
3: Life things

I've got 1 and 2 basically figured out but "life things" get's a little tricky... do I need plates? What about my pink lawn flamingo... I like him so much... is there room for him? If given the choice between plates and the lawn flamingo would choosing the flamingo be rational? Probably...I guess I'll figure it out eventually.

And by October I might need a room mate... but I'll worry about that later. I've got time right?... right?.... right!



Anyone have advice on what's important to bring with me?

Cheers!
