#8 - Imagination

WHERE: Irving K. Barber Learning Centre, UBC Campus, Vancouver BC

WHY: I posted this Kid Cudi lyric about imagination at the library, where I mainly feel void of any and all imaginative thoughts. After hours and hours of studying, one can begin to feel lost, hopeless, desolate...Keep your head up comrades! Embrace your creative thoughts, your imagination, your ingenuity - but never forget to just get out and 'DO' sometimes.

#7 - SMILE

Posted: #22 - Knight bus

Why: A good friend of mine once passed this on to me and I have never looked back since. Smile, you'll be surprised how much it helps.

#6: EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE

Where: Bus stop at Penticton and Mcgill

Why: Because it's true!

From Blair c/o Josie

#5 - COURAGE, MY LOVE

#5 - Courage, My Love

Posted: On a wooden beam, outside my work, Yew St.

Why: This is a quote from Lord Alfred Tennyson, one of the most popular English poets of all time. It comes from The Charge of the Light Brigade, a poem about the Battle of Balaclava during the Crimean War. The message strikes a delicate balance between nobility and brutality but one thought maintains throughout: courage. I strongly urge you to read the poem (it's short), and to have courage in the face of all life's adversities.

#4: DON'T BE SORRY

Where: #16 Arbutus Bus, heading to school on Wednesday morning.

Why: I left this post-it, with a quote by Jack Kerouac, on the bus to remind myself and other people what's really important in life. Don't ever apologize for being who you are and living your own life.

#3 - SMILE

I placed this post on my lamp at work, near my happy horse, to remind myself of the wonderful people in my life that make me smile, and that by doing this one simple act, I have the power to brighten one's day.

Blair says: "I found this post-it on my desk at home. It was written by an amazing young woman. It inspires me every day :)"

#1 - NEVER STOP BELIEVING

I found this post-it note on the 25-Brentwood STN bus this afternoon on my way home from a long day at school. I took this photo and sent it to three of my close friends. Each one of them replied with an answer along the same lines:

"That is awesome! I'm going to do something like that!"

Tada! This blog is a place to spread the love. The four of us will attempt to keep Project Post-it alive - a plan which is driven by the simple idea that a single anonymous note can make you smile. It certainly worked on me :)
