Bradley and I have survived the craziness of the wedding weekend, and we are now in our second week of marriage. At our wedding shower, there was a little mason jar filled with colorful sticks on which our guests wrote suggestions for date nights. The intention was to have one randomly selected “date night” for each week of our first year of ( Read more... )

Wow! I can hardly believe that the big day is only ten days away! Every time I think about it, I find myself growing more and more excited. Our family and friends from out-of-town will begin arriving Sunday and Monday, which reminds me that I need to finish getting the spare bedroom at my place ready for company. Two of my bridesmaids are bunking ( Read more... )

Question 10 - Discuss your first love and first kiss.

My first love, hmm? Well, I have had a handful of minor crushes over the years, but I have only recently experienced my first love. Over the last year, we have progressed naturally from casual friends to friends to exclusively dating. Our first kiss was not too long after we began dating. It was ( Read more... )

Question 09 - How you hope your future will be like.

I pray that my future will be filled with happiness, joy, contentment, love, patience, compassion, forgiveness, and sharing the love of the Lord with others through my words and actions. As Paul wrote in Philippians 4:11-13, “Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever ( Read more... )

Oh my! I cannot believe how neglected my blog has become. My life is beautifully full at the moment, which left me with little time and desire to write much in this blog, though I am quite happy with my more recent ability to keep my personal (physical) journal updated.

Anyway, a lot has happened.

A year ago this October my precious TabletPC, on which I did all of my digital sketching and painting, completely died. Blue screen of death and all. Fortunately, I had already purchased my, then, brand new 15″ Macbook Pro. However, that left me without a tablet of any kind. The professional-quality tablet I desperately wanted from Wacom was out-of ( Read more... )

I have been keeping physical journals off and on since I was in middle school, though most attempts ended in only a few dozen entries and months (if not years) of silence in-between. However, since August 2011, I have managed to transform my journaling into an activity that is fun, creative, and easier to do on a regular basis through the use of ( Read more... )

I am officially done with my bachelors! Wow, this has been a long two years, but a worthwhile one. Though I entered the Multimedia Design and Development program with plenty of first-hand experience in web design, I learned a great deal that filled in the holes that being self-taught can leave. I believe that my web design/development skills are ( Read more... )
