 It isn’t like a birthday card, where you can draw a cake, some candles and Wahlah! You have a beautiful birthday. It isn’t like a thank you card which can be as simple as writing ‘Thank you’ on the front of the card. An invitation needs to be well thought out, proof read a million times and interesting enough to make people to come to the actual event.

We were just going to have a simple design as a border, write the theme of our event ‘Spices, Senses, Sounds a Fusion’ on the front and write the details of the event on the inside. But that just seemed so boring and dry. And I just couldn’t stop thinking of a way to make it more special. So I found some wine colored card stock, found a gold paint pen from my friend Rebecca and started writing. It looked amazing, the gold looked beautiful with the wine color and with a little bit of henna designs here and there, I was proud to say that I had managed to make a very pretty invitation.

But we did also manage to make a template for cards that we were going to send out to the majority of the people. There was no way I was going to make special cards for each and every person on campus. That would be way to much work. So we took them to our color printing section and tried to print of our pretty invitations. The sad thing was we just couldn’t figure out how the insanely big printer worked!!! I was so frustrated because it just didn’t want to work. We did figure out how to work the printer eventually but I haven’t been able to test it yet. So as soon as a get off the computer, I am going to head over to our library and print those pretty invitations!

 Okay you may be thinking that I have nothing better to do with my time. You, my friend are mistaken. There are millions of things I could be doing right now. But I choose not to do them because I feel that I deserve a break, a break from homework, reading, writing papers and tedious of all, studying for exams. Now that I have had my break I am going to go do some major studying!
