Virgin Galactic Spaceship













A first look inside Virgin Galactic's Spaceship. Pretty crazy that people will be able to take a flight to space in 2013. It'll only cost you $200,000 for 5 minutes of weightlessness. Via GOOD.

Saturday Book Review: The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls

I don't usually like memoirs but The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls definitely kept my interest throughout. It's about the author, her family and the obstacles they face. It's honest, funny and heartbreaking all at the same time.

Record. Remember. Relish. Relive.

In the book I just got (Graphic) Dana Arnett is featured. In classes he taught he wrote on the blackboard, "Record. Remember. Relish. Relive." to emphasize the importance of keeping a sketchbook. I decided to illustrate these words for my journal.
