Loco for Logo

Lately I have been lacking the necessary confidence to apply to a few of my dream jobs.  I have been telling myself * my resume isn't perfect * I need another layout * I don't have the right software * I'm not going to get a job!!!
Sooooo.... I finally committed and "got 'er done"

I've been up all night working on a few logos:





So I want to know what you think! Any suggestions as to which one I should use? 
I'd love to read your comments and get a couple outsider's opinions

Home At Last For Some R&R

I am currently at home with my parents in sunny North Carolina.  This place really is just the best in the world! I am bedridden due to a sudden asthma attack but no worries, my immobility allows for even more time to daydream.... heres what I've been dreaming about:



Mostly dreaming about the subject of the last picture... <3

Shake Shack-ing and Shopping

Melissa and I arrived in New York City this morning! As varied and as difficult as my trips to NYC have been in the past, I can say, with a sigh of relief, that this trip is vastly different from those past experiences.    For starters, I was in great company!  Melissa and I have worked on a semester long project and have become great buddies... I was so thrilled to spend the whole day shopping and chatting with her.  She is quite the avid Instagram-er and here are her amazing photos of our leisurely day gallivanting around the concrete jungle.

College Graduation

Yesterday, with my family and friends, I celebrated the end of my college career.  In retrospect, I can't believe that its all over.  I entered college a very innocent, naive girl with little direction and a mind that wasn't her own.  Since then, I have transformed into someone I never thought I could be.  I am so humbled by every college experience and every person that has touched me along the way.  I am thankful for my best friends, new and old - The man of my dreams - And my parents who continue to support me.  

This is truly a surreal moment but I'm looking forward to what comes next!



"You have brains in your head.  You have feet in your shoes.  You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.  You're on your own.  And you know what you know.  You are the one who'll decide where to go."

Vote Against Discrimination

Believe me when I say that I'm not a political activist nor am I typically the type to push my personal views on others. However, I have made an exception for Amendment One.  

My actual ballot!



This addition to the North Carolina Constitution would recognize marriage between a man and a woman as the only legal union in  NC.  There is only one argument that needs to be made against this amendment.  Our country is vastly different from so many others because we are governed by the separation of church and state.  Thats it.  Religious beliefs and Biblical teachings should have no impact on the laws that govern this country.  If you choose not to support the union between gay or lesbian couples based on your religious beliefs, don't let them into your congregation.  That is how you can exercise that right, not through the law.

Lambda Pi Emanate

I pieced together this little hippie number for our Lambda Pi Eta ceremony last night.  This event marked my pathetic and honestly nonexistent involvement in this academic club.  I figured I could atone for my lack of participation in the club with a cute outfit... why didn't I get a service chord for that?
