I had an amazing time in NYC last weekend. Here are a couple shots from around the city ....

The plaza..

One Fifth Avenue ...like the book!

Sperry and Kate Spade.....

Artemisia Gentileschi's Esther before Ahasuerus

I love the city. Hopefully, I will be living there soon!

Check out my blog post I wrote for the RTR OnCampus blog!

This semester I am enrolled in Oil Painting I ... this is a couple shots of what I have been working on so far!

A cast face...

A copy of a master artist, Artemisia Gentileschi...

And a landscape (in an hour!)...

So, somewhere between rush for AKPsi, coming down with a sinus infection, family problems, work, not to mention scholastic demands time has flewn by. It just so happens to be the seventh week of school. Which means this is the mid point to my last semester which is over whelming to think about.

To be honest, I am a little behind in everything. Must keep the focus going, and fight the urge to procrastinate. Which includes being more attentive to my blog.

....Senioritis must stay away so I can accomplish everything I want have to finish.

Ahh, this sounds so cool.

Goal: Attend the 2013 Altitude Design Summit!

It looks like so much fun!

So, today was my last first day of school! As excited as I am, it is somewhat bittersweet. I strongly dislike my business administration major. However, I greatly like studio art classes or communication. Although I never strongly considered graduate school before since I wanted forever to be done with school. I am coming around to the idea .....


Today also marks day 1 of my detox. A couple weeks back I was at Breathe Yoga in Pittsford, NY and there was a cookbook that caught my eye....

Upon further research I discovered that there is a slew of books written by Dr. Mark Hyman, as well as, "The Detox Box."

According to the description on Amazon.com, "Designed for total cleansing to remove toxins and allergens, boost immunity, and restore energy levels, the program can be done in 7, 14, or 21 days."

Seeing as how I am sick way too much with sinus infections, I figured why not?? Plus most the reviewers  of the program highly recommended it. Hello healthier lifestyle, good bye sugar, flour, and cheese.  

My Reflection on 2011..

Reflecting on my 2011, well I will just say I am glad it is over. It may not have been my happiest year, however it was one of my most successful years.

I accomplished .....

Turning 21!

49 credits..

 Beginning to pay off my new car..

Buying a new computer...

Making some new take out and dinner menus for Costello's...

Planned and hosted a fashion show for my internship with Rent the Runway...

Moved into a new apartment ...

Oh, and I guess I spent a month in Greece over the summer!!! 

Needless to say I was very busy all year. I cannot wait for the year 2012 and all it may bring.
