thirty day challenge



matt cutts in this video talks about trying something you have always wanted to do and to try it for 30 days. it could be anything from staying off facebook for a month, cooking a meal a day, bike to work, study a language youve always wanted to learn, talk to a stranger or create an art piece everyday! this is a fun way to look forward to the future by planning out things you have always wanted to try every month and maybe youll discover a new hobby in the process!

challenge accepted :)

what i chose to do starting tomorrow for the month of december is that im going to take a picture everyday just like matt did. he says that for every picture he took he remembers exactly what he was doing that day so i am looking forward to this month and to make everyday picture worthy!

bookcrossing



For the second part of my project I signed up for an online project called bookcrossing. The objective is to leave a book in public that has a registered code with the hopes that someone will pick it up. you can track to see where the book is traveling if the new reader registers the code on the website. I chose a cute little book from urban outfitters called 'a lovely love story' because its a book you can easily read and pass on. i plan on leaving it this week at a coffee shop.

you should try it! :)

a letter from clothing




To start off this project I wrote a letter as a sweater to a new owner and placed it in the pocket of a sweater at Buffalo Exchange. I decided to do this because if I ever found this in a sweater I bought it would make it more special. The letter says:

Dear new user,
I have been abandoned and am in search of a new owner. I feel incomplete without
the warmth of my other half; when we are together, we become one. I promise I will be the one you can throw on with a pair of jeans or sweats when you are looking for comfort, the one who will wipe your tears away when you are feeling down. Like a warm hug, I will wrap my fabric around you. I will accompany you throughout your life, through health and sickness and during your greatest memories. I long for nothing more than to be of great use to you, to go through many washes in the laundry until I am reunited with you. I am enthused that you would pick me out of the many other sweaters on this rack. We were meant to be together.

Love Always,

Mr. Sweater
