Music Fuels Creativity

I have been OBSESSED with HAIM this week. I am in love with their album. I love Danielle's voice. It has a Fleetwood Mac vibe going. Actually, the album sounds 80s in a very good way. Also, the new Bajofondo album is amazing. You guys should listen if you get a chance. I have. Non stop. It's a problem. No, not really.

Also, I've been planning and sketching out a screenplay for the University of Miami. I want to make it a comedy as the visual sample I am turning in is more dramatic. I want to send a nice dynamic, versatile portfolio.

So today, more writing, cleaning (ughhhh), and music listening.

Happy Saturday!

No to "SHOULD"

My cure for the Thursday blues. 
I have a bunch of projects in mind. I've decided its time to stop saying "ohhh I wish I could do that" or "Oh! That's a great idea I should do it". Basically stop saying the word SHOULD and transform it into WILL. 

So part of this is to work on some projects. First, this blog, which I think is going well. I'm probably posting less than what I am thinking of. 

Second, applications...this is working slowly but surely. I get distracted when I come home. The Office is  just too great a show. What really keeps me hooked is the Jim/Pam relationship. UGH! 

Third, expanding my photography. I have my professional website, my facebook website, a tumblr, and two instagrams. Yes, that's right two. Why? Well, I didn't bring my camera to Mexico. I figured I would be busy with work and Fulbright and not sure who my roommates would be so I didn't want to risk losing my equiptment. However I do have my iPhone camera. So I have my regular account which is featured on the home page. Also I started another one where I will focus on coffee. I've always wanted to streamline something and it has been a constant challenge in my work. So yeah, I want to try and create constant, interactive content for my sites.  

Fourth, my youtube channel. My sister made me start it to document a weekend in Mexico City and though I love the idea I haven't uploaded anymore content but I have a ton of backed up videos. I also want to edit them on my laptop or work computer instead of on the iPhone. 


Time to let the creative juices out!
