Progress in the Paint- Partnership with Steel Pub

Run down of all the things I've been working on....

Important meeting with Steel Pub in Bethlehem, PA today.  Met with one of the owners, I believe, Cory Trainer and their manager, Amy Alpago, to not only finalize some fundraising ideas, but pick up my donation incentives.  The donation incentive coupons from Steel Pub are given to accompany the Macys Shopping Passes given for any donation given of 5 dollars or more.  You can find out more about United Survivors with EB (Useb) by clicking the logo here:

 
What is the Magic of Macy's Shop for a Cause??
You may get your Macy*s Shopping Pass by donating online here:  http://macysshop4useb.eventbrite.com/

Steel Pub not only provided the addition Shopping incentive but also donated TWO 25 dollar gift cards.  I will be giving them away to two lucky supporters that donate, $10 or more to our event, in order to enter for a drawing, if they live in the Lehigh Valley Area or surrounding areas.  So please, please, help an amazing cause and invite your friends to donate and share this info. 



 I also will have a display table during Musikfest at Steel Pub in Bethlehem throughout the week with pamphlet info about USeb,  Macy*s Shop for USeb passes available with a donation of 5 or more, and sign up sheet for the drawing for donations of 10 dollars or more.

While I'm there I will be capturing some pics and video of some of the fun activities for Steel Pub.  My free incentive from F8te Films to them, in return for helping USeb out with their fundraiser.  My little motto of give a little, get a little, in action! :) Never hurts to help out those that help you. 

Talk about going hard in the paint right now... I'm juggling a fundraiser, self branding, and fun activities with family & friends.  Lately, I've been really focusing on what matters most to me:

Art through photo and dance
Music
Helping

by:

Fundraising, bringing awareness to others about what EB is, learning piano, incorporating music and dance into my fundraising events by providing live performances of local talented artists, photo/video branding not only for myself and clients but for my sponsors; 

I'm also getting back into shape a little, since its summer time and I don't have to worry about classes and doctors appointments lately, by taking a break to enjoy myself by dancing.  I've gotten a lot done, been inspired, and slowly making milestones, in a short amount of time. :)  So excited to really watch things pan out.   

Hope to see you guys out for Musikfest... Not only for donations and support but because theres so many great shows and great things to do and see @ musikfest.  Not to mention my birthdays during musikfest!!  I can't wait!! ;)

Busy Bee Week

This week has been a very, very, busy week.  Actually, I should say busy couple of weeks.

7/20/2013- Saturday started with a Video Shoot and ended with a Taylor Swift concert.

Sunday and Monday was dedicated to nothing but video editing, in order to hit a deadline. 

Tuesday, Caught up on some much needed sleep then spent the evening at the Steel Stack's Artsquest enjoying Andrew Mcmahon performing his songs off his new EP with a combination of all his musical ventures.  Pics will be coming soon from that....

Wed, I had a friend's pre-engagement photo shoot, my Adult hip hop dance class, and lastly, a very much needed girls night out with one of my best friends, Michelle Davis.

7/25 Thursday:

My Yorkie Dog, or Puppishhhh as I like to call him, Rhys got a hair cut @ Bark and Bubbles.  I must say the best most creative name ever for a dog grooming business.  Rhys is named after the delicious peanut butter cup candy, (don't judge me), not the female actress Reese Witherspoon.  Although she is also one of my favorites by the way.

Plus a Meeting with the Owner and Manager @ The Steel Pub.  For more in depth details on this partnership, please read the next entry, Progress in the Paint.

 

For now, though, it is time for bed.  Gnight! :)

IN F8te



July 25th, 2013 @ 11:04 Eastern Time, USA

11:04 = 8:04 in CA time and half of 8 is 4
( 7/ 25/2013)
 
7 _ 2+5 _ 2 x (1+3)
 
7 _   7    _         2 x( 4)
 
7 _7 = 8


Hello inFin8te....

Let US begin by asking why I spell infinite as infin8te??
     8 can look like a lower case i, if you look at the top portion as dotting the i and the bottom half of the 8 as the bottom to the whole, or body of the i.

Secondly, because the 8 if turned on it's side can represent the infinity sign. 



Think that's a coincidence?  Probably not, but to play devils advocate, let's just say no.  Then perhaps it's because we want to impose a branding. 

What branding would you say?  F 8 = F A T E = F 8 t e 




Why F8te?  Well, you see, 8 is my favorite number and it's a nice play on words in order to incorporate the number I love so much. 

How can she love a number??????? Weirrrrrrd, right?? hahaaahaaa yea i thought so too.... until you fully understand it and grasp it. <sigh>  Till you soon realize it was all fate. 

My name is Vanessa Coreen Leinert - Born in little, small, middle of no where, now what I like to call ghost town named Lindsay.   Lindsay, found in the Beautiful, West Coast, Sunshine State called California.  Birthdate: August 6th 1986 @ 5:04pm West Coast time.

Let's rewind to my name again....
Would it be safe to say that life counts down or up to 10?  Yes...

Vanessa ( 7 letters ) Coreen ( 6 Letters ) Leinert ( 7 Letters ) 
or Corinne (7 Letters) the way it was suppose to be spelt if My Mom hadn't been too medicated from giving birth to me :) to remember the correct spelling of it.   
 
Birthdate: 8/6/86
 
Get to the point?? lol okay ...
 
7 - 6 -7
7 mirrors itself around the 6
like the infinite never ending shape of the infinity sign continuously repeating itself and mirroring itself
and if you look at the shape of the 6 and the 8
and visualize the SIX fitting IN the shape of the 8
8 = infinity
that's F8te
 
But why SEVEN???
 
Well, if you count down or up depending on how you look at it
.... 6, 7, 8
then you understand why 7
because you already have the elements of 6 and 8 around at all times.
Then why does the seven need to mirror itself round the 6?
Because if it mirrors like the infinity sign
and you already learned that if you turn eight one it's side
8 is INFIN8TE.
 
Why does my name need to equal infinity? Probably think I'm really reaching here and trying to force some crazy fixation I have with numbers, because I'm a secret under wraps nerd. ;)  Haahaa I wish that was all it was....
Vanessa means butterfly, because it is a TYPE of Butterfly.

 
 
What do butterfly wings do?  They Mirror themselves.
If you look at the body of a butterly, that even has the shape of the letter i or an 8.
 
Okay, okay, so there are million's of Vanessa's in the world and butterflies and 8s.....
What makes me so special, different, unique??
 
I was BORN a BUTTERFLY CHILD. 

What's a Butterfly Child?
A Child or person with EB. 

What's EB?
A rare genetic skin condition called Epidermolysis Bullosa ( EB ) that you are born with (inherit hence the genetic part which also implies not contagious) in which the collagen all humans create to keep the layers of skin bonded together is not produced in the correct amount causing the skin to tear easily and causes US to be as sensitive as a butterflies wings.

Have you seen the letters E & B side by side?
They Mirror each other to look like a butterfly. :)


 

 
This is the story of my F8TE as a butterfly child and the infin8te, never-ending, butterfly effect it has on m life. 
F8te has been written for me.
This is a documentation of not only my life thus far, but also a way to write my own journey as I grow into it and learn of its continuous enchantment. 
 
I hope you join me, and follow along as I not only share my story, but slowly build my legacy.
