Have some anxiety Scribbles from when I was working as a personal assistant in March. I am so happy I got that opportunity and bless the director, because she was so patient with me. I kept a folder with all the paperwork that I had to lug around and some extra things that were not needed anymore got scribbled on. So, any of you peeps that watch a Yellowknife episode on Hors Quebec, know that this lil weirdo helped work on it! And that job literally bought me a laptop that i desperately needed for my art stuff in the summer. So, I am super thankful. I am not sure if the show aired yet or not to be honest. I am going to go see if it did! :P

Liberate yourself from the boundaries and the norms, [presenter Adam O. Aguirre] said, and take risks. That’s exactly what Aguirre did at PechaKucha San Antonio Vol. 15 on Aug. 26, 2014 at the Carver Community Cultural Center. Egged on by none other than Randy Beamer, he had worked up the courage to engage in conversation with a young woman named Debbie. After images of the two had fluttered across the screens at the Mays Family Center and Aguirre had sang the praises about “the new friend he didn’t leave without,” as Shemwell had previously put it, he suddenly abandoned the microphone and rushed into the audience. The crowd immediately leapt to its feet as Aguirre knelt down and proposed to Debbie, who – you guessed it – said “yes” amid roaring applause. ... PechaKucha is not about shoving facts and figures down people’s throats. It’s not about disseminating information or pushing an agenda, and it’s certainly not about speakers convincing their audience that they are right about something. PechaKucha is first and foremost about humanity. It’s about telling stories, sharing a broad bandwidth of emotion, and about promoting interaction. It’s about inspiring one another to unlock potential, to liberate ourselves from boundaries, to make a difference, and to grow – maybe even one’s attention span.

Aurelie Rivard steals the show in Rio, capping Paralympic swim meet with four medals — three of them gold “I came in here with really specific goals and I reached them all. I swam even faster than I could have imagined and I won all my medals,” Rivard said Saturday at the athletes village. “And Rio has been everything. The Brazilians are really a loving and supporting people. I just pretended all the cheering was for me and it helped me get to the wall even faster.” Read more...
