april is just around the corner, and while that means more rain showers (enjoy the sun while it lasts!) it also means the promise of spring and new beginnings. besides just cleaning out my home for unwanted goods or someone else’s treasure, I like to take a little time out of my day to help others. with april also comes autism awareness month, and already I see communities & organizations coming together to help this noble cause. my favorite bunch of candles, linnea’s lights will generously donate 10% of all proceeds during april to kyle’s treehouse, a community dedicated towards empowering all those touched by autism. way to go linnea’s lights! I’m sure every sale will help spread word of this cause.

The Academy Awards never fail to remind us of the glamour and glitz that defines Hollywood. Its big stars, gorgeous couture gowns, and red carpet photography bring a heightened sense of excitement unique to only a few other events in entertainment. This year, despite the grandeur of the show – from the Vegas style opening performance to the much awaited award for Best Picture between 10 films – something that was touching was the number of smaller, more artsy films that took away the prizes. While surprising that Avatar didn’t win 6-7 awards in the end, this year’s Oscars proved that talent – no matter how big or small – can make it in Hollywood after all. To aspiring artists all over the world – this is sign to keep writing, directing, acting, singing, and living their passions daily.
One of my favorite segments from the show was the piece by The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers to the song selection of the candidates for Best Soundtrack for 2010 – a truly beautiful piece! Catch them below if you missed them!
