Hi all, this is going to be a more serious post, bear with me.

This is my best friend’s older sister, Jennifer. Her son, Pierce, was born with chronic kidney disease and has had a myriad of health problems since. But finally, Pierce has been approved for a transplant, and his mama is going to be his donor. The family needs some help to ease the financial burden they’ll be under once this happens.

My best friend Mary’s family has been like my second family since junior high, and Jennifer is one of the nicest, most genuine kind of person you could ever hope to meet. I asked if it would be alright if I could share this on other social media outlets than Facebook, and she gave me the go ahead. If you can’t donate, please consider signal boosting. A mama and her son need all the help they can get!

wanna know how great hockey players are?

an 11 year old bruins fan kept getting bullied at school, and so when her dad saw a game worn Zdeno Chara jersey would be at a charity auction, he decided to buy it for her. He tried to raise money for it and ended up with $500. The bidding ended up going higher than that and he was going to miss out.

ENTER COLORADO AVALANCHE MATT DUCHENE who was also at the event. He said to the dad “Get it for her. I got you covered.” As the price kept gong up, the dad kept looking at Duchene who just kept nodding.

The final cost? $2000. Matt Duchene paid $2000 so that a father could get his daughter a hockey jersey for a player not even on his own team.

Calling all storytellers! This is real!!! 

Free Video course by the creators from Pixar. 

“Have you always wanted to be Pixar animator? Now that process is a tiny bit easier. The animation studio recently made a number of courses available on the Khan Academy website to help you start your journey - and they’re free.”

The group of courses are called “Pixar in a Box” and include short lessons on everything from character modeling and animation to using virtual cameras. Today, it added a new course into the mix: The Art of Storytelling.

The free course is an exploration into the storytelling process at Pixar. From the course description:

“What makes someone a good storyteller? Storytelling is something we all do naturally, starting at a young age, but there’s a difference between good storytelling and great storytelling. In this lesson you’ll hear from Pixar directors and story artists about how they got their start, what stories inspire them, and you’ll begin to think about what kinds of stories you might want to tell.”

Passport Fundraising

I just found out that I won a scholarship to go to Ireland next semester for a learning abroad program! Problem is, I don’t have a passport, and I need to raise the money ASAP to apply so that I’m actually able to go. I’m offering graphic art commissions HERE, and am also accepting donations via PayPal at fuzzy.beerrito@gmail.com. I need to raise $150 for the various fees associated with obtaining a passport. Anything helps! Thank you!
