SUPER WOW!

Now say SUPER with your best Spanglish and WOW in English, that is the correct pronunciation. My cousin used to say it in the 90′s and it stuck with me ever since. I over use it and love to say it even more. Funny and brilliant if you ask me. It’s the equivalent of saying OMG or Wow, just way cooler. Anyhow, I’m having a SUPER WOW month.

This week is going to be a busy one around here regarding work and personal adventures and I’m mentally preparing myself for that and the next 30 days. All great stuff, it just so happens to coincide with a burst of energy and creativity that I’ve been feeling the last few days. I have written it all down so hopefully I’m able to execute it all in mix of everything.

Is it just me or does it feel like summer is slipping away fast? Next month I’ll be turning 30, yes, I know… it’s one of the big ones. I am completely okay with it, I really am. Along with that comes a lot of reflecting, thinking and dreaming. It feels great to have different outlets in my life to express all my feelings. This being one of them so in the next month you’ll probably see a lot of that sentiment here. Just thought I’d warn you. It’s all part of putting myself out there, but also recording the journey for myself.

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a self-portrait. Luckily for me I have this photo captured by Betty Lang during our shoot last month.
