My friend Bella got me a plant! Her name is Bells, a variation of Bella. My Bells reminds me of Belle, my friend Jenn’s orchid from her boyfriend. Apparently we like to name plants.

A few things:

  • Today I set up my google reader. I found out that a handful of people have subscribed to misskite. How flattering! I was expecting one or two subscribers, but I actually have a few more than that (over ten!). I can’t check the stats on wordpress for some reason, so I often feel like I am writing to the abyss or the few readers that comment (shout out to Benry, James and Yuri). Thanks again for reading faithful followers. I love you all.
  • Tomorrow is my last official day at Clink (I’m planning on going into the office a couple times next week, so it’s not good bye quite yet). It has been a huge blessing to work at Clink. I keep thinking about the lengthy process that came with applying for an internship and I thank God for providing this particular learning opportunity at the end of the long process (sending emails, praying, interviewing, praying, stressing, waiting etc. etc.). I can see myself work in the wedding industry in the future. Speaking of Clink, click here to see a wedding I helped out at. I loved the flowers at the wedding! Do you see the succulents in the vase? So pretty! I’m currently obsessed with succulents. PS: The table names were cattle brands. I worked with the stationer to make them possible!

  • In a few weeks I go back to California. It is always bittersweet. Here’s a list of things I am looking forward to (I have to make this list or I won’t want to leave Austin. I choked up a little while driving and looking at the skyline tonight).
  1. The weather. Biking, wearing jeans and cardigans, and doing devotionals outside.
  2. ICA family! I can’t wait to hear the testimonies from my friends who have been overseas this summer and everyone else who God has been faithfully growing and teaching. I am also looking forward to serving alongside my class this coming semester (it will be crazy busy but I know there’s going to be a lot of laughter and good times).
  3. My roommates. I can’t wait to hug Jess, Tiff, and Chris.
  4. My design classes: Design III, Typography, Digital Photography (how am I going to find time for all these studio classes??)
  5. DANCING!!
  6. Did I say DANCING?
  7. Food dates with Yuri and going to class with Yuri (OH WAIT. This punk signed up for a different Design III class).
  8. Deepening my relationship with God. I can rejoice ALWAYS wherever I am because I have a Savior that loves me so. My spiritual theme for the semester? Let Go! and be loved and love much!
  9. USC. I love my school. I can’t imagine going anywhere else.
  10. and so much more… I am blessed (Thank you God!!)

Have a good weekend all!

My Saturdays

Posted: July 12th, 2010

On the weekends I help out at weddings. Check out the pictures by Diana M. Lott from this particular wedding (Jenee and Keenan). I helped out with these chair ties:
