Life of a Revolutionary Thinker

One of the many fun things about living with the genius that is DB (dreamboy) is coming home every night to behold his latest creations on paper and computer. He is a creative mastermind! I'm in constant amazement of how he visualizes his ideas thinking of every tiny detail that will make the image authentic adding his signature quirkiness and style in every corner. Did I mention he is hilarious? I was cracking up when i saw this and watched it 10 times!! Entitled "Bad Manners in the Dining Room"

Yeah.. Maybe trying to get a girl tipsy and lookin her up isn't gonna fly.. haha, I'm loving the sound effects!!! Not to mention the music is one of my fave songs ever- Kings of Convenience, "I'd rather dance with you".
We are twin nerds so we're constantly showing eachother our new tricks, shortcuts and skills on the computer and critiquing eachothers drawings. I'm thoroughly impressed at how quickly he acquired maaaajor skills with animation! Soon he will be going to work in the blossoming industry of motion graphics.
The next 2 years of art school life will surely be exciting and inspiring, but I can't wait to see who snatches him up after graduating.. MTV? Bravo? Hope so.. Loves me a bit of Top Chef! hehe. . Or maybe have a small firm of his own art directing all sorts of projects. Fascinating :)

"The Family that Blogs Together, Stays Together"

Hi Friends & Family!!!

I had to get in on the blogging fun!! Yay! I love reading all your blogs: Dad & Mary, Grampa, Claire, Aunt Kelly & Michele, cousins Rachel, Kathryn, Joyce, Lizzie, Lori, friends in Utah Kels, Libs & Vern! So much great entertainment when I need a break from work..
My dad helped me decide on the name Smalls in the City.. My nickname is Smalls (since I look like the little boy from Sandlot.. yeah, i said little boy..) and I'm living in New York City, far far away from my precious family and all the things I love in California..
I'll be blogging about my life here and all the "interesting" experiences that come along with this crazy city, working long exhausting hours (fashion is not as glamorous as you think people!), yet loving my job, my progress I'm making furnishing our apartment o' love (i'm obsessioo with it..), karaoke with the twins and kels (weekly event), life with my sweetheart genius twin nerd boyfriend Alysson, and sharing all my latest obsessions- furniture, fashion, ebay and beyond!
In my head I'm always thinking "I wish I could write a blog about what just happened to me and see what everyone thinks". That's how I knew it was time to blog baby.. We'll see if anyone even reads this! haha..
Now back to work.. I have a long night ahead of me!!
