A Short Review



Over these past two weeks there have been several interesting happenings in The Venue. We finally launched the Blog, Myspace, and Facebook. There were several nervous breakdowns on Francisco's part, but I guess maintaining myself positive and keeping my chin up comes with being the assistant. There is no online access at the Venue yet, so I have been forced to post everything from home before going off to work. Everything seems like its going in a good pace, we are beginning the photo shoot on Monday.

First Day Back




Hello my name is Gabriela, but most people call me Gaby. I live in the wonderful California, where I was born and raised. I am from a a bordertown called Mexicali in Baja California, Mexico, where it currently is 102 degrees hot. It is a lovely town, all my family lives there, but daamn its hot. I will be living there for almost a month working with my friend who just finished producing his first collection for Feminine and Masculine. He stayed in Leon, Guanajuato for almost 3 weeks , and in Mexico City for almost a month, trying to finish and he finally did. I was up there for 2 of those weeks, from what started as a vacation, but ended up gladly helping him. I guess he liked my assitance so much that he made me his assistant. (I'm getting a discount on a pair of shoes) They will eventually lead to profits, but right now I'm working out of the goodness of my heart. We have recently gotten a lot closer due to consecutive calls since I am one of the only means of conversations he has, and since I have time on my hands I say well why not I love him to death, and I have a hell of a good time. He will be back home tomorow Friday, May 29th, 2009. I will be traveling back home with all my gear to start working on Monday at his Studio. I'm very excited, I want to get this thing up and running, get him all the way up to the top. It will be hard work, but I love a challenge. Right now I will be going up north to say goodbye to my beautiful friend Daniela (left) since I won't be seeing her for a while, or till her passport is delivered. Hope to get some delicious merchandise! Love you all and good luck on all ventures!
