Do what you love

Are you living your life or just existing?

Go and find what makes you happy.

Life is very very very short.

Blue Rose

I was commissioned to create these earrings!
The man who asked me to make these is giving them to his wife who loves blue roses.
It took me forever to get these rose beads...but after a month they came and I made them right away!

Aren't they adorable?
I think I might have to make one for myself.

What kind of jewelry would you all like to see next?

Storytelling

Back in college I used to take a script writing class and my fellow classmates and professor always loved my stories. My professor even told me that I should consider pursuing a career in script writing.

Anyways, I'm going to blog my weekend because maybe one day I could incorporate it in a short script one day.

I called in sick to work this morning (Monday) because I didn't feel very well. Not physically, but mentally the weekend has taken a lot of energy out of me.
On Saturday evening my car was stolen. I was at my friends house and left my jacket on the couch with my car keys in the pockets. There was quite a lot of people there.
It was supposed to be a house party with close friends, but people started inviting random people and it just got way out of control.
I didn't think about the possibilities of someone actually stealing my car....
When I went back to my jacket to go home, my keys were gone.
As I headed outside...the car was also gone.
This was definitely a life lesson I needed to learn for leaving valuable things around.
Nothing this horrible has ever happened to me.

On Sunday, the sheriff's department called me to inform that they were able to find my car, but it had major damages. The lady on the other end of the line laughed while she told me. I have no idea why, but maybe she was nervous or just plain insensitive about how I felt. She gave me a number to the towing yard to discuss about my car and then she hung up.
The thought of facing my car made me want to vomit.
According to the towing company, my car was found in ravine, pushed off a 100 foot cliff.
It's interesting because when I reached to the point of rage, I started to laugh.
Not really sure why that is, but maybe it's my brain trying to make myself optimistic about the situation.

So when I got to the towing yard today I saw my car and it was totaled.
My heart sank.
The thieves stole my house keys and information from the glove compartment so I needed to change all the locks to my house.
It really upsets me that someone could do this to another human being.
I then began to cry from anger.
Unfortunately, nothing will bring my car back.
This incident made me realize that I shouldn't be so attached to a piece of metal.

If this was the worst thing that happened to me, I should consider myself lucky.
Why on earth should I let these low-lives get the best of me.
I'm not going to be upset about this situation anymore.

The happiest moment was when I found my art supplies in the car.
If I have art then what else do I need.

I guess things will be slow for a bit, but I'll be right on track after I get everything sorted out.
My deepest apologies if you were all excited about me selling my art soon.
It's going to be postponed for a bit until I get this taken care of, but I'll be right on track as soon as you'll know it!!!

Hope you all had a better weekend than mine!

Cleaning

So I'll be cleaning my house soon and was thinking to get rid of some of my past creations.
Just can't have too much clutter around me at the moment.
Hopefully once I get organized, I'll be putting old works on ebay starting from a dollar and you can bid on them.
What do you all think?
I'm also thinking about donating some of the money if it gets to a good price, but I am not sure which organization I could give to.
I've given to UNICEF before, but what do you all think about the Red Cross?
Maybe I could donate to a children's hospital in my city....

All ideas are welcome at this point.
