I was lucky enough to visit the School of Visual Arts recently with Loretta.  The School's president, David Rhodes, and members of his leadership team were wonderful sports during our media training and mock interviews (Gary--I'm talking about you!!).  The School is in the heart of New York City and I have to admit I can't imagine it anywhere else.

We wandered around the School during a break and were able to view the student art.  Wow.  Their students are nothing short of amazing.  Their spring fashion show was informative, artistic, creative and hilarious.  I know that sounds like such a strange mix, but I LOVED it.  I'm not an artistic person so I always enjoy seeing how creativity manifests itself in others. 

As if I needed further proof that I'm lacking in artistic creativity, I had a picture of my aura taken last week in Washington, DC.  Yes, you read that correctly.  Remember I'm from Boulder, so how could I resist such an opportunity?  My reading said I have peace in my life and I have healing powers.  The man reading my photo also said I was lacking in creativity.  I have my moments but none of them have produced anything that would help me gain admissions to SVA's programs.  Kudos to their students and their noteworthy skills.
