This is a personal manifesto my mentor/ad teacher had me do for my work profolio. While we were walking our usual back to class, he said, "People need to feel your personality, they need to be able to get a taste of your own story. Your own version of life." Those words really touched me for some reason. It had me think how each one of us comes from a different background, experience, struggle and how people can reflect on this life very differently that others. The next day I came up with this..

"My full name means, “wishes” in Arabic, and my wish is to find that tpot of gold at the end of rainbow. I’m multicultural, so I surround myself with diversity, because I believe different ideas can do wonders. I’m opinionated yet, open-minded. I seek risk. I’m not scared to fear, because the future is easy & doesn’t exist yet. I believe that you have to fall to be able to grow, because the light is always more beautiful when it has to fight to be noticed. I am patient with all things but first with myself. I’m always hungry to grow and make mistakes along the road. I'm not ashamed of mistakes, they're what shaped me into the person I am today. In times of confusion, Art is my outlet. I paint my thoughts & fears. My joys and tears. My sorrows and my pain. My mantra in life is kindness. I believe being kind to all mankind, for everyone is fighting their own battle. And tea is the cure to all sorrows."

This little piece of me is the first page on my profolio now. :)
