Check In With...

The people and places I feel I must check in with every week are as follows:

1. My family: They keep me going. Whenever I'm in doubt about my life and what I'm doing with it they always tell me what I need to hear, whether it be encouragement or the hard truth. My mom is especially good at giving me the truth. My sister is really good at making me feel better about myself and understanding where I'm coming from since she does art too.
   
2. My roommate, Eunice: She brings me back down to earth. She's a biology/public relations major, so she's a good balance for me. She keeps it real.
3. The TV Show House: For some reason the cinematography on this show always puts me in a good mood. The atmosphere is muted, but clean. Plus Hugh Laurie doesn't hurt either. :)
4. Classmates Blogs: Have to check these to make sure I'm keeping on par with everyone.
5. Borders: I love this place! It's one of my favorite things to go to Borders with my dad and sister and look at all the books and magazines on a boring Sunday. I absolutely love looking at the new book covers on the bestseller tables.
   

Wine Bottle Redesign Inspiration

I came across this website, which has a bunch of examples of wine bottle designs. I thought this one was particularly clever. You write a personalized message on the label, and I thought the one they put on there was pretty funny.
