Hi faithful (?) readers! My blog has moved and is being hosted by myself (at my domain notsamantha.com/blog), and is powered by WordPress.

Blogger, you have been a lovely friend, but I had to move on to bigger and better, hostier, things.

My website is not finished yet, but the blog is, so feel free to visit it and leave me comments!

Why? WHY do people continue to use PC's? I don't get it. I honestly don't. Macs are easier, more reliable, faster, designed better, more sustainable, more user-friendly...

I mean, really. On my dad's PC, you can't even attempt to print without having to shut it down. It's obnoxious.

Also, HP printers are the worst inventions ever. HP Invent?? Give me a fucking break!

I enjoy this layout - it's very simple. And, yes, maybe a little vain. What? I love that pic Pawel took of me 3948903284 million years ago.

Pawel really needs a website.

Also, I've updated my list from yesterday... I accomplished nothing :[

Thank you, Digg. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I was browsing Digg.com today as usual and I found an article whose author must share the same love of Yahoo Answers as I do. The article, from Kontraband.co.uk, includes the best/worst (depending on how you choose to label them, and your sense of humor) of Yahoo Answers.

Questions include:
-I caught my son having sex with a guy and I think he might be gay. Is there a definitive way I can tell?

-Cheerleaders Y du u think their stupid? (written by a Cheerleader)

-Help my GF is a preganent virgin!!!!!!????

Please, please, read it.

Check out the article here.

Today, I turned 22. I don't feel much different, though. I guess that will happen after you stop having birthdays that are significant like 16, 18, & 21.

It was a nice, quiet, family get-together, which was cool. Suzi made a really pretty cake [edit: added pics!].



Looking forward to Mish's tonight. I haven't had a proper night out in a while, and it's about time. Good thing I don't have to work tomorrow!

This week my bosses at W&H are in San Francisco for the Academy of Art University's prestigious Spring Show, and I must admit I am super jealous (and I also have a craving for gelato...) They're teaming up with hilarious and straight-forward freelance journalist and gelato connoisseur, Alissa Walker of Gelatobaby, to promote and liveblog the event that tons of big companies look forward to every year.

The AAU Spring Show is a day where the best of the best in design (graphic, fashion, digital, industrial, etc.) get to showcase their work while prospective employers look on. Every year, internships and jobs are awarded to students with excellent work, so it's a big day for them!

This year, because of Alissa Walker's presence, the AAU is handing out free gelato, yumm!

Check out Alissa's Spring Show with Gelatobaby website to see all the action and maybe pick up some inspiration!
