2012
All I can publicly say is that there is going to be more change coming for me this year. How's that for being mysterious?? The point is, I'm excited about 2012.
Also, I'm pretty goal-oriented, but never been one for resolutions. This year my head is exploding with them. Here are a few because I know you're incredibly interested:
1. Start an Etsy shop of some sort.
2. Practice more yoga, more deep breathing, more moving my body.
3. Keep in better touch with my far-away-friends.
4. Eat less fast food. Much less.
5. More water. Mostly to drink, but also to swim in.
6. Take a trip to somewhere I've never been.
7. Cut out the complaining.
8. Pay more attention to life and less attention to my iPhone.
9. GET AHOLD OF MYSELF! Ya know?

Change of Plans
I'm so fickle. I like this blog better. Can we all agree that since shifting to a new blog didn't get me to blog more, I should just give in to the tightness of keep it tight? I'm down if you're down. Okay. Let's get it then.

SUMMER BREEZE, MAKES ME FEEL FINE
Posted by Carly April at 10:46 PM 0 Comments {CLICK HERE TO COMMENT}
I'M A MINI-ME OF MY MOTHER. IT IS FRIGHTENING.
Looking through my pictures of last summer for blogging has made me SO ready for this summer to get here, and this winter weather outside is really pushing my buttons. Lucky for me, I am going on another cruise in two weeks! The Western Carribean is about to get you-know-what-slapped with this pale skin and I am NOT apologizing for it.
But back to last summer... my mom came to visit and we had a MUCH better time now that I've been here long enough to steer clear of the Bronx and Chinatown with her. But then, looking at the pictures, I noticed that we dressed similarly every day and it scared me a little. I'm trying to pretend that I am making it up in my head, but holy crap! I am a mini-me.
-Chelsea market followed by a slice of Amy's Chocolate Cake on Highline Park
-Having my mom ask the hot Italian waiter at Grimaldi's to take a picture with me... loved that.
-Watching July 4th fireworks over the Hudson river from my rooftop with an amazing view
-Going to the American Girl Place for the first time. It was a lifelong dream come true!
-Freeman's Alley restaurant (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED little restaurant that is tucked away in an alley with the best atmosphere and amazing food) and then improv comedy at the Upright Citizen's Brigade
Anyway, needless to say I wore my mom out so badly that she pretty much crawled back to the airport swearing that she'd never come back.
We'll see about that... ;) mwahahahahah!

THE BIG FIFTY
With Momma G making the half-century leap, I absolutely HAD to go back to San Diego and party with her for a few days. I mean, really, what kind of daughter would I be if I wasn't willing to spend the weekend in Encinitas, getting massages at the spa, staying up late with drinks and cheeses, and playing sequence all night? We all have to make sacrifices for those that we love.

BAM. LOOK WHO'S BACK!
I got jealous of other people's online documentation of their lives. Sooo... here I am once again. I'm going to take a whack at playing catch up since last summer, and then see if I can start actually updating this baby again. Look out— I'm makin a comeback.

ONCE, A LONG, LONG TIME AGO...
...I went on a cruise. I figured that now would be a good time to blog about it, since the memory is fading with age and "better late than never" is beginning to be my default life philosophy. It is probably good that I waited because I got about 800 good pictures out of these glorious 9-days, and had I posted right away, you'd likely be stuck looking at at least 500 of them. Now that about 5 months have passed, I think I can dwindle it down to about 499! Success!
My friend Jason had a great hook up with this cruise line which made it so that the 8 of us were able to go for 9 DAYS! Although you can see many windows on the side of this bad boy, our room is not behind one of them. We had 2 little cave-of-a-room's with 2 bunk beds each so we all got REAL close.

PRODUCTIVITY IS SUCH A DRAG.
For the last few months, I've felt pretty guilty spending my computer time on my blog when I KNEW I should be working on my portfolio. So, work on my portfolio, I did. (And needless to say, blog, I didn't.)
I just threw all my final stuff onto a templated website for easier access, and ba-da-bing, ba-da-boom— I'm back in action. See what I've been working on at www.carlywilliamsportfolio.com.
Here's a little preview:
And PLEASE let me know whatcha think. Love!

HAPPY FIRST ANNIVERSARY TO ME
Ogilvy has themed parties on the rooftop on a regular basis. This is my favorite thing about this building. It may be quite the trek from the subway, but the view from the roof is enough to offset that annoyance. And being able to get an hour of sun during lunch every day is a life saver.
And just for good measure, I HAVE to mention the fact that I won first place in the Ogilvy bake-off earlier this year with this fruit pizza. I spent 40 bucks and three hours on this bad boy, and then won a fifty dollar gift certificate as my prize. Note to self: not worth it. Especially since everyone was acusing me of buying it at the store.
So... yeah. Here's to finishing the first year of my advertising career, no matter how work-less it may appear in this post!
