cinematic and dramatic

So as usual, I've been basing some life decisions around people/places/things related to Gossip Girl. I came across a great quote by Blake Lively the other day and I've been taking it not so lightly. She says, "It's the choice you have to wake up every day and say, 'There's no reason today can't be the best day of my life.'" So that's how I've been living life lately; planning my days so there's always something to look forward to and making sure I'm doing things that make me happy. Yesterday I got to work with the incredibly talented Kevin Chiu. Check out his work, you'll be glad you did. I also got to have lunch and catch up with my friend Heather. We talked about work, life and (you guessed it) blogging! Be sure to check out her site, Galbraith and get lost in the dreamy imagery and great content. So go out and do something awesome today; treat yourself to a latte or just take a walk around to get re-inspired. You deserve to be happy, so why not be happy right now?
