blip!

laurence gives a shout out to me on his xanga, and all of a sudden, i get 3 new xanga subscribers, and visits to my dot mac website. huh.
fascinating.
i guess that's what we call (in the industry) pr.  haha
kinda of a shame i don't really xanga much anymore...
oh well. maybe, just maybe i'll get inspired after i move to the lonestar state.
...gone will be the isolated workdays in my home office, where i can count the number of people i see in the day on one hand (a list which includes the tall blond fedex lady and singing asian postman), and where i might leave the house every 2-3 days.

kitsch*n glam turned 3 years old on feb 2nd.
2006 was a brilliant year of growth. 333% to be exact.
i started making monthly shipments to anthropologie in april. and I got a european distributor.
and wouldn't you know it? i hit profitability.
i finally paid myself a salary in october, after 2 years and 8 months of blood sweat and tears..gave myself two happy checks! (which totaled less than my starting salary right after college, i'm moving up in the world, don't cha know?) woohoo. paid off personal cc debt, and spent the rest. all gone! muhahaha.

2007: i'm moving me and me business to austin, texas, the land of 62 cents a square foot for office/warehouse space and future husbands. teehee.
kitsch*n glam will hire it's first part-time employees, and maybe- just maybe, I'll be able to delegate away responsibilities and regain that concept of balance in life. maybe! perhaps i'll work 40 hours a week instead of 60, perhaps i won't have to beat myself up for taking time for myself, perhaps i'll stop complaining about being plain old tired and burned out to the power of three.

perhaps kitsch*n glam will get another large client, so I won't have only one cash cow.
perhaps i get back into acting!
perhaps i'll get a licensing deal and just be responsible for product development/design.
perhaps turning 31 will be an excellent time in my life.

happy chinese new year y'all!

hey! support asian american christian music!

funny actually.

I just reread all my blog postings back to 2003...and you know what!? i'm still struggling with alot of the same things! but i've experienced so much more since my flute teaching/photography days.... pretty amazing.

little did i know what God had in store for me.

i think i know myself alot better now.
this was where He was leading me.

Big dream come true.
***to live in a house and decorate it!

I'm moving! after 7 years in my monon street apartment, i'm moving to nearby Glendale...to a cute little craftsman style house that has a 2 car garage...bring kng and my bed under one roof, and having a part time roomie that comes with a darling 10 month old little girl. yippeee!

i'll do a little before & after picture posting once i move ...
i bought 10 different colors from sherwin williams today....red- orange- green- mustard- turquoise- pink...etc...AND i'm buying a used refrigerator that they're going to paint RED for me. yipppeeee!!

i finally get to be a grownup- with out the mortgage. heh heh.

and I'll be auditioning for the vegas Avenue Q on monday the 27th...I'm ready for this audition....but what if i have to move to vegas, and I just moved into a house!?!? i'm so excited on all sides!

this new decorating project is a welcome change to my dwindling passion for kitsch*n glam....
and I can finally sing really loud, or actually pull out my flute and practice and not feel self conscious or bother neighbors. yay!

i'll be painting and scheming and packing nonstop for the next 2 weeks....****happiness!
