Cirque du Soleil for Quincenera

Throwing out some elements for an Escort Card Table with Cirque du Soleil theme (pre-matured). We are going to wait for the curtains to be opened for the main reception to see matured decor! Til then, we gonna see some colors and lots of Gerber daisies :)

Our young lady loves her Gerber Daisy balls, I am thinking Gigantic Gerber Balls in colors of pink, orange and YELLOW!! Balls will sit on top of clear cylinders filled with moss balls and silk daisy heads.

One of the fun escort card ideas for this party will be SWIRL CANDY LOLLIPOPS. Styroform block is covered in Extremely colorful candy balls/gums and will hold the lollipops securely. Boarders should be covered in fun ribbon with little bit of gold embellishment.

Dark Purple satin table clothe will give a grown up touch to the table. We like "DARK and (sexy)"

My little drawing to describe the table. I want the lollipops to be displayed like the tent from actual Circus... stripes will get wider towards the edge of the table. make sense? I could be speaking non-sense.. hah!

BAr Table

I became a BIG fan of a Bar top (high top tables) ... Especially those wooden ones! I want them to be LONG and skinny -

One day I did a quick search for a brunch place near my apt in Union sq. then ran into Piccolo cafe.. from what I read, the owners decorated the cafe them selves- IT is absolutely beautiful!!!

Piccolo Cafe

They NOT only decorated the stores but made the tables them selves - I really wanted to take ONE home - gave them my number wanting to find out if they were willing to make ANOTHER one. BUT that would be probably out of my BUDGET..

HEe hee NOt as cool as the one in the cafe but Ikea also carry a wooden hightop table - maybe I will just get that one and settle?

Beautiful & Wild

I am moving - I want my new room to be decorated and somewhat up to my standard..

So I've done some brainstorming and put together a design ideas!

I don't have a headboard for my bed. I've seen people paint headboard on the walls - HAH! why NOT? All you need is a STEADY HAND + ORANGE PAINT + BRUSH?

The Photo on the left bottom is the 3D model of what my room would look like (least I will attempt to make it look close to it!)

Grey is becoming one of my favorite colors. It neutralizes everything. I am still able to have FUN with POPPY color ORange without being so overwhelming because of the GREY in the room.

I found these items from Ikea. In NYC, you could get free rides to Ikea in Brooklyn from Pier 11. So awesome because my apt is going to be only like 3 blocks away from Pier 11! HOW awesome is that?

Unfortunately my room does NOT have a closet. I will have to use the closet in the HALL way (bigger than the one I have right now). I don't want to bring a clothing rack in the room because It makes the room too messy - Everything being exposed. Plus, clothes get dusty and all - I thought of the stores like H&M, anthropology, gap... HOw the clothes are hung on the wall sm - LG. Why can I do that in my room? but only have about 3 of those and only hang clothes that I plan to wear tomorroW?

So then I started searching for a great HOOK/rack... guess who has em? IKEA!!

I still have to find a mirror for the new drawer that Ji is going to give me before she leaves NY (which will be painted in ORANGE). Grey curtain with a GREAT price tag :) we will see where it goes! OHH forgot to add cool pillows!!!! possibly with some patterns in green and ORANGE!

NYC is

LIVE yet DEAD

Populated yet lonely

Rich yet poor

Loud yet quiet

Beautiful yet dirty

Fascinating yet boring

Is it?

Uncertainty of my FUTURE

I am sicking tired of the uncertainty of my future.

As hard as I try to make things possible and brighter, the fear of loosing control over my life always brings dark cloud over my head.

My mind is filled with many questions: how long can I wait? How long do I have to endure? Why me? What can I do? What would be the consequences? What if...? Would I regret? WHAT FOR?

yet, there's no answer.

There will be no answer until I make the decisions and move forward with whatever I have.

Why can't I just run back to Korea and pretend like everything is FINE? Thus it is too much for me to handle...

DIFFA's Dining By Design Gala

We sat on the NYU table that was under the circus tent with props and fab. mirror lights :)

What a NIGHT !

Autobiographyin 10 years

I am going to start writing a diary because I plan to write a book, autobiography in 10 years.

I will have to record my feelings/events and such!

I am the main character in my story, and I will overcome any troubles just like the characters in the movies (the ones that never die even with 50ppl shooting at him)

Thank you

Unfortunate but Fortunate

I am one of the most unfortunate yet the most fortunate person in the world...

Passion

I've gave up a lot of things in my life to be where I am right now.

I left my family, I left my friends, I left my home and the things I owned.

So Why am I here? just to be an event designer/planner?

Anyone can be in this industry, yet I put so much, and I give up SO much to be part of this.

I am sacrificing my everything for something that I am passionate about (so thats what I think).

Is it all worth it? should it take THIS much to do what I do?

what should be my priority?
