"The gratification comes in the doing, not in the results."
-James Dean


It's midnight and I'm here doing my readings for school... I just realized how happy I am studying Art. I recently decided to make a program transfer from Management to Art History and Communication Studies (big change, I know!). Although nothing is official yet, I am very happy to be taking Arts classes this semester and am sure I won't regret my decision.

Anyways, I've learned to live by this quote during my first semester at University. I found out mid-semester that Management was not the way to go for me. I lost motivation and felt like dropping out several times, but I kept on going to class... I understood that it didn't matter whether I got good grades or not... I'm proud of myself for having toughed it out and am happy that I've found a program that excites and motivates me everyday.

Oh hay second entry!

Have you ever been asked: “If you could have dinner with anyone (dead or alive), who would it be?”? Well I haven’t, but I already have an answer: James Dean.


I totally forgot to explain my blog name!! Haha ok it’s really simple.

Hotness.

I’ve read a lot about him and he seemed like such a troubled, mysterious guy which is what intrigued me most. I have this infatuation (ok perhaps it’s a strong word but I don’t know how else to say it) for James Dean. I have 3 Jimmy Dean posters in my room, 2 books about him and even made myself a James Dean shirt.

Everything he says is so profound it’s just... wow. So anyways... I stumbled upon this J.Dean quote one day and it just stuck with me:

"There is no way to be truly great in this world. We are all impaled on the crook of conditioning. A fish that is in the water has no choice that he is. Genius would have it that we swim in sand. We are fish and we drown."

Love it. So, I had to put it as my name. What do you guys think?!

He has many more awesome quotes, but I think I like this one best. It just says so much, you know?

See ya next time!

P.S. I’ve been thinking about having this tattooed on my left side (ribs)... what do you guys think?!
