Weekend Update
Hello! How was your weekend? This weekend was very relaxing. On Friday Alan and I met up with my friend Max and his girlfriend Angie at Native New Yorker, Saturday we ran errands, cleaned, and watched the Hangover (hilarious movie) with some good friends. On Sunday we had planned to go to the Renaissance festival in Phoenix , but due to pouring rain, had to move those plans to next weekend. So we spent the day painting, baking chocolate chip scones, and finished the TV series NY-LON.
Here we are hanging out with some friends at a recent party

2010
Hello all! It is now 2010, we have made it a full decade since the Y2K scare and are fast approaching the scariness of 2012. Although I maybe a little behind I just made my new years resolutions. They are as follows:
- Remember to write on blog at least 3 times a week, other busy people manage to do it, so, I too should be able to keep up.
- Volunteer somewhere
- Drink less beer and do more hiking
- Find my camera and get back on track with photography and open a flicker account
- Attempt to cook more
- Read more for fun and finally
- Try to journal more, more introspection is never a bad thing. What are your new years resolutions?

Earning Passive Income as a Freelancer
If you are a freelancer of any kind, you probably have time periods in your life where clients are either slow to pay or you’re low on clients in general. There are many different opportunities available to you in order to generate something called “passive income”. I’m kind of loathe to use the word “passive” as it insinuates it’s something that can go on while you sleep. But…. Eventually, it can! Of course it will require some hard work and dedication to keep things going, but it can be a welcome relief when you are short on business. In between large projects or when I have lots of extra free time (hahahahahah), I have started a few projects in search of having an extra cushion of passive income. Well I guess the extra cushion will be going directly to my student loan companies, but hopefully you’ll be able to benefit a bit more directly from this =)
I am creating this post and the posts to follow in order to inform you and help you in your goal of creating side income, as well as to encourage myself to keep going and increase the volume of my own passive income. Lets get started shall we?

Hello All!
Hello all! I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything, but from now on I will be better about the updates. I figure you all might like to know some things about the blogger, so I’ve decide to tell you all a little about myself in the form of a list of my favorite things. So here are my top 10:
- A really good cup of coffee. It’s my number one favorite thing. I want it in the morning, before a big presentation, with friends, and when I am happy and when I am sad
- Fashion. I love perusing fashion magazines, blogs, people watching and window shopping for inspiration.
- Witty intellectual conversation and debates. I think that stems from being a political science major
- Weekend mornings (or afternoons as the case may be). I love waking up alarm free and cuddled up with that someone special
- Thrillers and action packed movies
- Art particularly on postcards. I have a wall in my apartment covered from top to bottom in postcards
- Adventure. I enjoy exploring new places, ideas, and meeting new people
- Snow. I wait all winter for the flakes to fall and have been sorely disappointed since moving to Phoenix.
- Playing Apples to Apples and Taboo. Game nights, particularly with those games, always end in tons of fun and laughter
- Shopping. I love the challenge of finding the perfect thing, whatever that may be.
Thanks for reading my list! What are some of your favorite things?
