My Memories

I am fond of the woman that I found here in college. Although I am well over the average age of a college student, especially in fashion college, but never the less, a student. I am rather proud of my accomplishments and tenacity. I am sure that I have accomplished my goal. This was to leave a straight and narrow path for my daughters, but also for the friends that I found along the way, which I feel that I have left a legacy for them as well. I refuse to accept that I was here for selfish reasons, or even that this was for my own goals and ambitions. My part was fun, my part was a discovery process, but most of all, it is one that will never fade, not in my memory, nor in theirs.

Labor Day

I dread holidays. As most look forward to their days off and spending family time at the beach or just barbequeing at home, I DREAD IT! Retail, food services and medical are all industries that don't have "days off". At our Smoothies Business, we have rainy days off only, but in California we don't have many of those. This is why I am seriously considering from fashion to, a days off kind of career. If I did move full throttle into this industry, this would mean that both my husband and myself would be too busy for family. I can't handle the thought of that one. Maybe if I go into education, I will have the time off that I need, holidays and summers to produce little winners (my daughters). I know that it is redundant, the fact that my girls come first and choosing between my future and them, they win, HANDS DOWN! But I still don't have an answer and I would like to know, I have THREE WEEKS!

Walk From Obesity

Each year I take part in a walk that donates all of their donations to researching obesity. Cancer, AIDS, and MS are just a few of reasons why people walk to donate money. Obesity is one that people hesitate to donate to. I know the thoughts of some are, "just stop eating". But contrary to what many believe, it is a disease that is taking over from children to adults. If this were so, why is it that even homeless people are sitting on the street begging for bread and and obese. If they do not have a disease that why didn't they drop to skin and bones? This particular man that I am referring to has been sitting in front of the post office for at least 3 years, hasn't lost a pound and remains obese. Hmm? I suppose this is why research is important for the future and keeping our children and generations to come healthy. See me if you'd like to support the cause.

Ugly Betty

I bought my daughter the first season of Ugly Betty on CD. There are 7 cds, four episodes per cd and I am now on the first episode on of the 4th cd. I can't believe that I've missed all these shows on tv. Although I've heard that it is about the "Fashion Industry", I beg to differ. The first few episodes were, well relating to the industry, but by the 3rd it turned out to be the typical "novela". It's wonderful anyhow and I am so glad I bought the cd's before the new season begins. I'll be right in sync with the "trend" of new shows on tv.
