Write It Down

20120802-142415.jpg

I’m ready. I’ve always been ready but now I feel it in my bones. The last few days have been filled with excitement, creativity, and I’m stoked about life. I took an adventure into a few notebooks I’ve scribbled in from the stack beside my bed, I was reminded how much I truly love writing. When I was 15 I wrote and published  an anthology of poetry & prose and I never really stopped. I’m keen to have a book written by December 1, 2012. I’m writing it down & telling you to make it real.

In other news, while I was Googling myself in Google Books I found out that BRIAN SOLIS mentioned me in his book “The End of Business as Usual“. I have blogged about him a few times and I love his work. Smart man. My credit in Dear Photograph also came up. I’m taking that as a sign I’m on the RIGHT TRACK baby!

Beers, Babes, Beards, Bikes, Books, Boys, Bass

Hi, hi! Had a nice coffee on the patio in the sunshine. Got this cute heart shirt from Winners last night and it ripped already. Problem with all the sheer is it is so delicate. Head scarf was a vintage gift.  I’m doing a presentation at an ad agency about creative blogging this afternoon. Fun! I love going into new offices and throwing energy all over the place. Huzzahhhhhh!

Beerfest 2011 – Breakfast Beer from 1188 on Vimeo.

This weekend is Beerfest! Stoked to get beer’d with a bunch of babes, boys, bands, and friends. This video was shot by 1188 last year for the fest featuring Hipster Ryan from the office.

I was informed yesterday that my daily blog email wasn’t coming anymore! Sorry If you have been missing it! I’ve fixed it, I think. Hopefully you will wake up to a delicious blog snack in your email tomorrow. If you would like to subscribe and get  a daily dose of sunshine & love, subscribe here. It’s super easy and convenient for reading on mobile, in meetings, or when you should be working.

Remember, you will never be younger than you are TODAY so make the most of the day. Call someone you love, do something nice for no reason, comment on a blog, help a friend. You’ll be glad you did!

This Is What Fun Looks Like

Look in the mirror. Look outside. Look at a kids face. Look at something tasty. Look at the sky. Look at your past. Look at your future. Look deep inside yourself and find the fun in there. It’s there.

Look that was ME flying in the sky! Not that exact person but I was flying. Flying!

Build your own world and live it in.

Heading to the 1188 office this afternoon then a new Italian eatery King West for dinner. Have an awesome and FUN day!

Give Me a Hint of Your Light!

New post on teh ol’ SummerWorks bloggy blog. Festival starts August 9th!

There’s a free workshop you can apply to called Making & Breaking on August 4 & 5th. It’s a two day workshop in contemporary performance. I’m doing it! LMK if you apply. Details here.

Check out the OFFICIAL song of the performance festival:

“The idea for the song and video came out of wanting to get people excited about the Festival, and re-iterating that SummerWorks is a celebration of incredible, exciting work and artists. SummerWorks wants to ‘give you a hint of its light and be your spark,’ (lyrics from the song) says Michael Rubenfeld, Artistic Producer of SummerWorks Performance Festival.

MY SKYDIVING EXPERIENCE

20120723-002908.jpg

On July 21, 2012 I went for my first skydive at Jumptown in Orange, Massachusetts. IT WAS FREAKING AWESOME! My instructor Joe Goodbreak was so cool & fun to hang out with. He has done over 1,000 jumps. Videographer was Keith Thivierge with two cameras for video & still.

I was only really scared for the 3 seconds before we actually jumped.  We had a 55 second free fall at about 120km before opening the parachute. Falling in the air is exhilarating. Greatest adrenaline ever.  The sky was so clear and beautiful. I felt so calm up there.

Before the Jump

20120723-002912.jpg

Skydiving from 13,500 ft (jump is at 2:12)

He grabs my head so I lift up my chin to the camera. He told me not to look down but I couldn’t help it! He signals for me to pull the ripcord after we spin for a bit. Time goes so fast when you’re fallin’. I wanted to do dance moves but it was a LOT to take in on my first jump. Next time.

[iframe id=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/s1z2tQ_R8h8″]

Definitely tops the list of amazing things I have ever done. I can’t WAIT to do it again. Seeking friends who skydive!

I feel like a cooler version of myself who can REALLY do anything.  Motivated to take on the world!

Have you gone skydiving? Where, when? LMK.  Here’s to a great week 🙂
