Firsts.

As a young adult, it sometimes feels like I have experienced all the feelings that I will ever feel. But when I opened up a package sent to me by Sabrina yesterday, I was so touched I actually teared up. And that, my friends, was a first. About a week ago, I reached out to Sabrina on Instagram about a Mickey sticker that she had made that I loved. After just a few short emails were exchanged, she said she had sent me a package with a few treats inside.

What I had opened up was this: The mickey sticker, a note, a handmade mickey magnet, and four more stickers, two of which were personalized in the likeness of my cats. I really couldn't handle the generosity and time it took to make these, the adorable package they came in, and the note that came with it.

While I don't consider Sabrina a complete stranger after following her for so long, it often surprises me how much I forget how generous and kind people I hardly know can be. Yesterday, I bought an amethyst to take along with me on my trip and I think this purple guy matches quite nicely. While I plan on sending a Sabrina a fun package of my own, I think slapping one up for her in Paris is the best way to show my thanks. Not just for the package, but for reminding me that there are still so many firsts that have still yet to come.

There are so many creative people in Los Angeles, but it really takes a cool gal to be able to make street art. You can follow Sabrina here.
