Yoko Furusho

Artwork by Yoko Furusho

I stumbled across Yoko Furusho's work while reading my horoscope on AstroStyle.com the other day (great website for horoscopes, btw.) & I couldn't help but noticw the whimsical illustrations for each sign! So ethereal and kawaii all in one. Yoko Furusho is super talented & has worked on numerous campaigns and for various magazines. I'm sure I will feature more of her artwork in the future. In the meantime, check out her website.

You Are A Soul

These days, however, fame is more easily obtained. Anyone with enough money and a lack of self-respect can become famous just by being famous. We’ve gone from Socrates to Snooki. -- Dr. Mallard

Food For Thought

Don’t listen to logic. Don’t listen to common sense. Don’t listen to arguments or advice designed to make you feel that it’s better to be safe than sorry. Listen only to your heart.

Quiet and very self-assured, you tend to keep your own council. Pragmatic and practical to a fault, you are not one to worry about the finer points of philosophical discourse. In fact, because you are very much an individualist, you often find yourself at odds with the established truth or the wishes of the majority. You will often earn the wrath of an employer by taking upon yourself decisions which are rightly those of your manager. You are not one to take credit unless it is deserved. Similarly however, you will also not happily give credit where it is not due. In a romantic relationship you can be very frustrating. While you do care deeply and sincerely, and are willing to work at a relationship, your confidence in your own abilities can on occasion make it difficult to see the world from a partner’s point of view. Quiet and stoic at times, you can drive a more emotional individual completely up the wall. You can become overstressed and fatigued without knowing it. Taking time to rest between bouts of hard work can help to prevent a breakdown later on.

Watch This Space

After a very long hiatus, I have finally returned. Still deciding which direction to take this blog, so stay tuned!

Any thoughts would be mucho appreciated. I'm trying to figure out how to live anonymously online. That is, how do I share my life & inspirations while maintaining my need for hermit-like privacy? We shall see.

One More Disney Day

This year, my birthday happened to coincide with the One More Disney Day celebration in which the park stayed open for 24 consecutive hours. Needless to say, I was ecstatic!! Who doesn't love going to Disney?! We got to watch the sun come up and go on the rides in the dead of night. It was so packed & everywhere you turned, people had this zombified-yet-giddy expression. I basically survived on coffee and pastries and adrenaline. Magically, no line we waited in was longer than 30 minutes. I wore a beautiful tiara (a birthday present to myself) and every single cast member referred to me as "princess" all day. I suspect being covered in glitter didn't hurt, either.
