My First Shower

My soon-to-be sister-in-laws threw me a bridal shower this past weekend. It was absolutely wonderful! I cannot believe how much stuff Kevin and I ended up getting.

Thanks again, ladies! It was truly a lovely time ...

The Quote Quota

I saw this today, and it really struck a cord with me. So many people forget their supposed to be used this way. Love it!

"I think of quotes as spices. Spices in themselves have no nutritional value. They make nutritious things taste better but like spices, quotes should be used sparingly."

The Redesign, Second Pub

It's hard to believe I have officially been working at UH for a month now. Time really does fly by, especially when you have as much going on as I do!

Anyway, I can honestly say my decision to join the Cullen College of Engineering Office of Communications was a good one. I already feel as though I have been there for years!

What's been most exciting for me, the dean has requested Parameters be completely redesigned. Oh, and one more thing, I get to launch a brand new, second publication this fall. Translation: I'm in heaven.

For the last few weeks the floor of my apartment and my office have been littered with magazines and torn pages from publications that I find have interesting layouts and eye-catching font. Since I am the post-it note queen, those are everywhere as well. The little yellow snips of paper are pulling double duty with the wedding quickly approaching. If I could only check off as may things on my "To Do" list as there are post-it notes!

Here's a quick taste of my crazy world. Bad ... I know. I think it may have actually trumped the desk in my office.This kind of progress, for me at least,is messy.

Well, that's all for tonight. My updates will be more frequent from now on, I promise :)
