"The Pretty Good Problem"

I have been in love with Tom Shoes for as long as I can remember. Its a great company that gives back to children in need. Forever pair of shoes you buy a child in Africa receive a pair for free. I currently own 5 pairs of Tom Shoes but was looking for one more pair to spice up my collection. I found this great pair of silver sparkle Toms that looks fabulous and go with almost everything. Their fun and out going while keeping a cool undertone look so you can wear them everyday. These shoes are remarkable in every way because I get so many complements and they always top off my outfits. I have finished my collection of Tom Shoes for now, but who knows I might find another wild pair in a couple of months.

Trendspotting in Fitness and Nutrition

Fitness and nutrition has become a very popular topic in the past couple of years. People will do anything to be thin and to stay skinny. People will even take supplements to increase there metabolism. Green Tea being one of many things you can take but now also being questionable for its nutrition value. Consumers will buy and have the mind set of being thin and how important it is. Even as young teen girls starting the trend to be thin and then sometimes eating disordering come into place. Young teens encourage other teens to be thin or "I want to be like her" attitude, which is unhealthy. Now sometimes mothers will encourage their teens to be thin and to work out to the max to fit in with the other teen girls. Their are many different trends in fitness such as what to wear when you work out and what to eat. Green tea vitamins have been around for a while and have become more popular over the years due to its advertisements and other ways to promote its natural enhancement.

Sketch Book

I bought this sketch book for my Visual Communications class. It is a necessary tool because I need to be able to draw out my ideas and show my professor what type of visual learner I am. I bought the bigger sketch book because I wanted more space to draw out my ideas. Right now there is nothing in my sketch book, but by the end of the week I'm sure I will have a couple of quick sketches for the class. One of our assignments is to draw a "mind map". This is a visual map of ideas and things that we perceive and process through our mind. I am excited to draw this and looking forward to the class as well.
