I am

I am strong.
I am flawed.
I am open minded.
I am not perfect.
I am willing to try.
I am full of potential.
I am not believing the hype.
I am loved.
I am gifted.
I am fascinating.
I am woman.

raise your hand

if you know that Stephanie Willis, also know to some as bonita, has a boyfriend.

oh, you didn't?

Well, she isn't exactly telling the whole world yet. But as her best friend I thought I could take the liberty to at least tell the world wide web. which is essentially the same thing. Please contact her so she can tell you all about how madly in love he is falling in love with her. It's a lot of fun!

oh and your welcome, steph.

I bought this CD (self titled) because I love track #3. By the way, I always love track #3 of all my CDs. Any hoo. I was looking for a whole cd of track number 3s because that's what I bought and thats what I wanted.

Am I throwing a fit? Who can ever tell you're just reading type.

So, If you are thinking of buying this Cd and you are like me. don't buy it. Wait until your sucker of a friend buys it and then you can bum it off of them.

now what is it that you do?

In most recent social situations I have been asked, "What do you do for a living?"
I answer knowing that i have the coolest job ever, "I'm an art director"
"oh."
conversation continues and a little later...
"now what is it that you do?"

So, I've found some resources from my most recent issue of Step Magazine that might help some of you understand. what I do.

and by the way, I do it well.

"Whence did the wonderous mystic art arise,
of painting speech, and speaking to the eyes?
That we by tracing magic lines are taught,
How to embody, and to colour thought?"
William Massey

Top 10 Reasons Being an Art Director is the Best Job in the World
10. Being a whiney, tempermental crybaby is completely excusable.
9. You get to have all the mystique of a fine artist with none of the clean up.
8. "I'm an Art Director" sounds so great no matter who else is at the table.
7. Throwing clients off by explaining why the EPS on the FTP makes a poor PDF due to the lack of PPI
6. You can rock an all black outfit in the summer that would put the goth kids to shame.
5. You know enough key comands to virtually type an entire layout.
4. The coolest offices in the building.
3. In a world full of corperate rules you're bound by none.
2. Given a small buget, a suffocating deadline, and a client-generated concept, you channel Mac Gyver-like skills and get the job done.
1. Creating cool work and having little pieces of your ego printed, published, and plastered all over the place!
