Around 3:00 something magical happened. I got a job! At a really cute restaurant in OKC. THEN I got two calls in a row for some graphic design work. AND I have a freelance meeting with my first CLIENT ever tomorrow morning. WOAH. All in all I only have one job so far ;) but keep your fingers crossed for the other three for me!

Yesterday I was feeling so down. I have been a lot lately. No calls back, some email responses but nothing to get really excited about. Now I know why everyone is more stressed after they graduate and say they want to go back to school. I’m not saying I want to go back quite yet though!

I can’t wait to move and get organized and then really start the next chapter of my life. It’s nice to get excited about this adventure all over again.

AND shout out to all my design friends—it seems like it was a good day for a lot of us! I know none of them, except 3 or 4, read this blog but i’m so proud of all you guys! GETTIN’ WORK DONE!!

Lastly I know I don’t normally share personal things on here so sorry if I have been annoying you lovely followers!

today is hard.

I graduate in 3 days though!

jet lag is awful…i know it’s not too bad of a time stretch from here to Hawaii!. I traveled about 16 hours and i’m exhausted I still feel like I’m in the water and in the plane all the while with my feet feeling like the size of balloons. I’m cranky I guess?

It was really scary/interesting being a small part of the Japan earthquake/tsunami. I went to Hawaii for my brothers wedding and his, now wife :), is from Japan. Her family was stuck in a car for 24 hours just trying to get to the airport. We left only seeing the small stream of pictures trickling in through the news. Then we were gone for a week only seeing glimpses here and there of the damage in Japan. With my new (!) family members going back to Japan just three days after the incident it was nerve wracking to know what they were going back to, far from the feeling of tropical bliss. I have not heard how they are doing but they live in Tokyo so we are hoping for the best. I’m just so, so happy they were not hurt, or even worse. I can’t imagine how Miho, my brothers wife, felt just days before her wedding with something like that happening to her family. The ceremony was AWESOME. The food was SPECTACULAR. And the company was so, so nice, giving and relaxing to be around.

I wish I could eat pineapple everyday fresh like we did.

Hawaii is pretty awesome :)
