For the love of books


(More doodling in the calendar book I purchased a few weeks ago.)

Books.  I love books, old and new.  The intense old smell of tattered books kept from ages back to new pages, enticing one's mind to learn something new and exciting about life and history! Uh huh.

Speaking of books, let me fill you in regarding some major changes on this side of the bloggie world.  I'm sure several of you remember me expressing frustrations and discouragement in the past of being in a very unhealthy work environment.  Well, through much thought and consideration, I resigned from my job this past Tuesday.  A very brave step but it's time to take care of me, in more ways than one.

So, what's next?  This is where the excitement comes in!  I have chosen to return to school full-time to finish my pre-studies and then transfer to Law School.  Uh huh.  I've already completed a lot of the leg work and looking forward to the new journey.

In the meantime, I will continue creating illustrations on the side.  In fact, I'm working on some new updates/changes here as well and plan to announce them soon as well.

Happy Thursday!!
