		<title>Starbucks Happy Hour, Business Cards and Entrepreneurial Dreaming</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Anyone who knows me will be surprised to find out that I have not yet taken advantage of this amazing offer yet. But I am making a date with Starbucks this weekend. While I would usually consider myself more of an iced latte or black coffee kinda gal, something tells me a little Frappuccino boost will get me into a web designing frenzy!
Speaking of which, I&#8217;ve been working on a new personal portfolio website. I can&#8217;t wait to delete that disgusting &#8220;coming soon&#8221; placeholder on my homepage once and for all! Along with creating a branded website, I&#8217;ve been brainstorming ideas for business cards. I stumbled upon a really cool business card design last week and I thought it was ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[tUnE-YaRdS: BiRd-BrAiNs
Was researching cool record labels and bands in Portland and this album from Marriage Records caught my eye. Then the song caught my ear. listen to &#8220;Sunlight&#8221;.






Wasted Tape
This track from is awesome: &#8220;In The Nottingham&#8221;. Much to my dismay, the rest of the songs on the album don&#8217;t sound anything like it!






Micmacs

		<title>International Star Wars Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been excited for two major events this week&#8230;the return of LOST  THE FINAL SEASON after a *gasp* one-week hiatus and Cinco De Mayo  (excuse to pig out on taquitos and drink an ungodly amount of  margaritas). However, I just discovered yet another exciting event to  celebrate&#8230;International Star  Wars Day. Yes, you heard correctly. A few simple google searches   delivered an array of delightful past-times which I thought I&#8217;d share:

Wookepedia which has entirely way  too much information for any one person to possibly know, or want  to know.
50 Great Star Wars Band Names &#8211;  versions of real band names with a star wars twist.
Bands  that actually are named after Star ...]]></description>

		<title>Random Acts of Kindness &#8211; From My Diary</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was in one of those moods where you feel kind of depressed and sorry for yourself. So I decided to open my journal (which hasn&#8217;t been opened since last October) to try to channel my energy into lyrics or free association writing or something that could maybe be more useful than being depressed and watching a Grey&#8217;s Anatomy episode I&#8217;ve already seen three times.
What a pleasant surprise when a past entry made me actually laugh out loud &#8211; literally. The change between moods was so sudden that I decided to share it with the world (the 4 people subscribed to my blog feed). It isn&#8217;t exactly a true diary entry per se, but rather a description of a dream ...]]></description>

		<title>Things That Make Me Happy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[iving in Los Angeles can really make someone get used to the sunshine. So much so that when it does happen to rain it can almost feel like the end of the world. I happen to love the rain, but I hear a lot of people complaining. It’s too wet outside to do anything…it makes me feel depressed..the list goes on and on. So I decided to do a little exercise to remind people how to bring the sunshine back when it’s gloomy outside. Just make a list of all of the things that always make you happy.]]></description>
