Tagging a gravestone, locking locks on a fence, sticking gum on a wall. Why do people participate? Self expression? Community? Dopamine? Are Facebook, Tumblr, or Foursquare forms of digital graffiti? Why or why not?

- be fearless
- go beyond the obvious
- never assume
- look for hints transform them to innovation
- ideas for ideas' sake are worthless
The day before I left for my holiday vacation two of my instructors took me out for drinks - which somewhat turned into an intervention. They told me my job was sucking the life out of me. I appreciated their candor because I'm a tough love kind of chick.
Time for some changes - 2013 will see me up in front of a class again. I'm looking forward to making my students' brains hurt. I'll be teaching into the digital marketing program I created so expect to see a few thought rants like this one. I'm also going to be creating a new e-retail program which I'm really looking forward to as that's where my business was born. Besides thinking, I'm also passionate about design, architecture and fashion so I'll be blogging more - which is also a passion. Oh - and I'll also be opening shopbijouliving.com Three cheers for the entrepreneur!
Happy New Year to You! I really appreciate you sticking around and following my ups, downs and circular motions! The best is yet to come.
cool! I wish you a happy, healthy, safe & successful new year!
ReplyDeleteLove that picture of the piggy back goat/sheep/lamb! Love those little guys. :)
Thanks so much P! I've really appreciated your visits and comments - you're always very insightful, not to mention you have great taste! I look forward to reading your blog in 2013 - I love your themed posts.
DeleteIsn't that a crazy picture. I hope they're on their way to the sheep park and not the butcher.
All sounds bloody brilliant - bring on thought rants, would love to get in on one of your lectures, lucky students. I never say so enough but your vision is unique and engaging and I continue to enjoy everything you post. Cheers to 2013 Stacy!
ReplyDeleteWow, thanks Claire! Come on over from Australia - I'll save you a seat. Wait - it's summer there now so maybe I should head over there...
DeleteI've enjoyed your evolving style over the years! You had a tough go the past year and I've been very impressed at your composure, strength and professionalism you've kept the whole time. You're one tough cookie - keep it up!
Thanks for opening my eyes to Australian style!
