Monday message.

Somehow, for no apparent reason, I've found myself watching a whole heap of videos/short films/animations about pollution. 

I came across this one that I quite instantly fell in love with. 

It has the obvious message of pollution and the damage it does to nature, but it also is wonderfully entertaining and I literally cracked up at my work desk during the last few seconds. Well worth sharing. Happy Monday morning :)

Riding with Vintage.

I'm completely jealous of this little project a favorite blogger of mine Calvintage has just completed. I deeply want to go riding on the Wellington wharf, try to ride with my hands in the air and document every outfit change. Her outfits are so delightfully adorable. She is quite possibly my favorite fashion blogger. There is surprisingly a lot of girls on bikes here in Auckland which gets me delightfully excited. I'm rather or more very in love with these public bikes which is what Calvintage is riding in her project. If only I could afford such a one. I'm going to collect bikes I've decided. And that is all for now my lovely creatures...

Lovliness in Ugliness.

I love this. It brings awesomeness to ugliness. Which is a good thing. When I get big and strong and own a lovely abode of my own, I want to have a small farmlet. I don't want to be a vegeterian but I do want to be sustainable. And the only way i know how to do that is to go a little bit backwards. 

 Watch.

It's called 'The Scientist' by William Nelson

In flawlessly creative animation, it tells of the story of a small farmer who slowly converted his family farm to an industrial animal factory before seeing the errors of his ways, and discovering a more sustainable future.Ah life...

Dream big, work it out from there.

 

"Dream big, work it out from there."

This lovely creature came to me amongst a whole list of bloggers who I found in a google search of 'Top blogs of 2011 New Zealand'

So I'm incredibly stoked to come across this wonderfully lovely kiwi Amanda.

She's a whole new batch of inspiration for my world. 

Do enjoy.

 

To do New.

I have now started my first job. It's strange getting used to this new lifestyle. New city. New people. New a lot of things really. However I'm slowly beginning to adore the newness and strangeness of every unfamiliarity I come across. I think that is why I so much wanted to be a part of the industry I am now in the home of- marketing that is; the home of imaging and creating. I fall so in love with campaigns and ads. Making things into something wonderful. They take things that are initially solely a commodity or a company...and turn it into wonderful entertainment that inspires and entertains. I think a lot of the time we assume that only certain things have potential to inspire or entertain, but really I think we'll find, if we take the time to see things without objective eyes... everything has potential for creation. Even the kiwi sceptics...
