PROJECT LIFE // LETS GET STARTED

January 8, 2014




Ahhhhh. Okay. First things first. I am so happy to be jumping on this ProjectLife train. In my sophomore year of high school I became obsessed with journaling & incorporating my art & ideas. Well, as you know, this blog as been my journal for the past 2+ years, I decided I wanted something tangible. It's so sad that I can literally count on my fingers how many photos I printed last year, I want my life to be off my technology and actually something seen & done, experienced in flesh.  

I was a tad overwhelmed with enthusiasm when I finally had purchased the basics back home in November, and when the new year hit I couldn't wait to get my hands in all sorts of craftiness. 
My goal is to keep things simple while still having that element of detail.  

THE FOUR ELEMENTS OF THE YEAR are centered around the word "be"
1. "B" the first letter of my name & the basis of my eight self goals, or the goals I'm making to better myself as a human individual.
// be less stressed 
// be more spiritual 
// be kind always
// be silly & be happy
// be honest & true
// be selfless
// be in the moment
// be brave

2. "A GIRL SHOULD BE TWO THINGS: WHO & WHAT SHE WANTS"
My self portrait that feels very much how this year started.

3. "WHEREVER YOU ARE, BE ALL THERE"
Enjoying life from wherever I am, a change of scenery can only do so much. Besides that, I think for myself, it's very easy to wait, and countdown, and wish time away. I need to be better at being in the moment. 

4. "2014 / LET IT BE" 
Going back to my last post, my goal to quit trying to control the outcome, and allowing things to just be. 

2014, I can't wait to see all the things we document together, I can't wait to see what kind of person I can grow to be.
