23

I am 23 now. My birthday always seems to creep up on me and this year was no exception - especially considering it fell on a Wednesday. It was fun and low key, and instead of treating myself to a new dress or something of the like I just took the day off and did errands. That should be the first clue that I am now not a fresh twenty something and with that it is the first time I can honestly say I feel older and also that I feel my age. I like the number 23 for some reason so hopefully it will be a good year.

Other than getting older I am trying to stay warm. Chicago had a cold summer and a warm fall and now suddenly it turned into winter. I woke up yesterday to snow and wondered where all of my time went. But now time will slow down and it will be winter until May, can't wait. At least now I can wear all fifty million of my jackets. I am looking forward to my mini break in KC over Christmas and also Diana's bachelorette party in Miami in April - yes I am already looking forward to April, sad.

It's Winter. Still.

It's only January and I want to escape. I am currently accepting invitations to exotic places but in case that doesn't pan out, there is an advertisement trying to sell me heated clothes and I am giving it second thoughts right about now. My only fear is that it's basically a heated blanket and that I'll suddenly burst into flames. Despite the cold good things are happening. I've fulfilled, at least temporarily, one of my new year's resolutions. I am currently employed as the PR intern for Crossfader King. It's fun and challenging and hopefully will open doors to more things so all is well in that department. On the other hand I am failing as a photographer. I haven't done a single thing but I have a assignment due next thursday so be on the lookout for that. Besides that you should look at the stuff below. The Cool Kids video that I worked on this summer is finally out so take a look here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2b_ty5VuOk0

escape route.

I hate this add campaign. They had to add the Gatorade sign so that people could even know what it is for.

Crepe bake.
