All my life I have always had a passion for art and design. I was always drawing, coloring, or creating something. After highschool I continued that passion into college and recieved a bachelors degree in art and design. As of now I have had art published in magazines, featured in stores for purchase, in art shows, created logos for businesses, and now designing art for print on demand products or digital downloads. I also design journal covers for Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing. Not to mention countless craft projects. This list has my favorite designed products, art I love that inspire me, and supplies to start designing on your own. It is never too late to follow your passion, just take that first step and go for it.

I've always believed that every profession has its own unique sense of humor, and funeral service is no exception.

One of the things that surprised me most is how much warmth and humor exist alongside that sense of purpose.

I have been a K-pop stan for 10+ years now and have attended over 10 K-pop concerts within the past year (I-dle, Taemin, J-hope, Jin, etc.). After attending multiple K-pop concerts, there are essentials that I make sure to bring in my bag before I leave the house.

Who did not grow up playing with LEGO? As a child, I was enthralled by the joy that these seemingly nondescript rectangular colored plastic bricks could bring. The creatures and worlds that existed only in my imagination could finally be given realistic form (even if they didn't move or breathe like their living counterparts).LEGO is not a game in the traditional sense of the word. It is a unifying force that needs neither language nor rules. It appeals to individuals across a wide variety of ages, demographics, and cultures. The building blocks of LEGO foster creativity, curiosity, and even teambuilding spirit, and result in some jaw-dropping works of art that can take hours, days, weeks, and even months to craft. Check out the LEGO Masters TV show – contestants can spend up to NINE hours constructing their masterpieces! To say nothing of the real-life structures that may have come about as a result of prototyping using LEGO, or the careers that were launched in architecture, urban planning, medicine, science, technology or mathematics as a result of early (and long-lasting) encounters with LEGO!Note: This list may contain affiliate links, which means that I may receive a commission (at no charge to you) if you make a purchase using these links.
