create something beautiful

Hi everyone,

For those that know me, you know I’m in a Master’s degree program in Publishing at NYU. And if you know me really well, you know I’m in my final weeks of it and about going insane trying to get my capstone project finished up. If you’re a really, really nice person, or happen to know anyone who may fit the bill and have 5 spare minutes, I would reallllllllllly appreciate it if you’d take my survey (and/or forward it to ANYONE you may know who would be willing to as well) to help me gauge the audience for the project I’m working on. It’s not long at all and every answer or comment is so incredibly helpful!

Take the survey about the potential launch of an eco-friendly fashion and beauty magazine here.

And if you’re really, really interested, I made up a mock cover a little while back of the kind of magazine I’m imagining. Any feedback on it or the concept whatsoever would be awesome! You can check it out in a previous post here.

Thank You Thank You Thank You!

Talk to you all when I’m done and have both a social life free time (to blog with, yay!) again in two weeks!

It’s been a long day. But Chris is always there for me.

Chris: You are, Kelly. You’re like a de-clawed, raised from birth polar bear.

Me: You know, i kind of like that. At least then I’m cuddly.

Chris: You appear quite cuddly. You have a good build for it.

I was talking to a good friend tonight, while in a melancholy mood. He’s the best to confide in because rather than play the sunshine and rainbows part, he always has a tidbit of interesting words which stick with me - whatever the topic - that are always filled with a tiny dash of irony and a sprinkle of humor.

Tonight, his words were:

“College is over. I think our awesome is done. Everything is now a compromise of our once lofty dreams.”

So sad. But true?

While home for a week for the holidays I did a whole lot of sleeping, talking to my mom, sleeping, going to family Christmas parties, sleeping, eating, sleeping, hanging with my cats, and finally… hanging out with Christina.

And then I dragged her back to Brooklyn with me!

Went to a big, extravagant Italian wedding in New Jersey yesterday (as a friend, not a photographer this time) and there was quite a good deal of free booze and unlimited wine on our table, so I wound up taking a few fun shots in the end.
