This is one of those times where I start questioning myself with the purpose of blogging. Clearly, both you and I do not want this to be a waste of time. It has to sort of contribute to both me and my readers in different ways. I'll start thinking of yours tomorrow, but for now let me just speak my mind.

Ever wondered how our lives are always based on these common routines that channel us into different decision makings and from there, making you a whole different person? I'm a believer of Christ. From the very time I embraced Christianity, it took me around a total of three to four months to the realization of many, many things. Altogether, this journey of life became a stranger to me. A rather close, comforting one that is. I could say this with courage, that the Bible, the word of God speaks itself with truth and truth it is to me.

I've been doing an assignment that helps us build our skills of design researching. Different themes, different topics, different findings is what makes this subject really interesting. Well to be exact, mine is "Contemporary blond artists re-living Monroe style". Pretty cool topic I must say. It depicts how these blond female artist tries to imitate Monroe. The tricky part comes in when you question yourself whether style equals personality or appearance? or both? what about life experiences?

Though only half of the proposal in conducted, I was able to come up with a couple of different opinions and judgement/ beliefs whatever you want to call it. A hand full of suitable candidates to appear to be in my list such as Christina Aguilera, Madonna, Anna Nicole Smith and Gwen Stefani. Some say (due to the fact that Anna N. Smith died recently from her overdose) that Anna totally followed the footsteps of depression and the "sex icon". Christina Aguilera admires the classic Monroe look and success, and Madonna was a head to toe wannabe Monroe, till she achieved recognition of her own. Gwen, was just ahh, the look.

To be very honest and clear, none of the comments were from myself. It was the comments of some close friends I interviewed, with their own understanding of my title. Again, I thank God for having Him guide me into a well situated place where I have at least one/two subjects that I'm doing well.
