The past six months (or should I say years living in Dogpatch District) I've been blessed with amazing experiences I had not expected. As some of you know me well enough, I stay active in Dogpatch community since I moved here almost 14 years ago.  I believe the universe wanted me to live on this side of town in San Francisco before anything was really here.  I thought (and still do) volunteering every year for almost 13 years, is something great to do for the community and the neighborhood I live in. I've seen it grow and grow, almost like a child like where you want to protect it, defend it and let it grow to something so wonderful. Really, it's not me, it's the community that I fed off of over the years because of their passion, drive and determination in protecting this area - Dogpatch Historic District. Summer 2009, I was elected to be on board of Dogpatch Neighborhood Association as Member Coordinator/Corresponding Secretary. Re-elected last October 2015 f

Happy New Year - 2016! Yup taking a moment to write (finally) in my Blog! Gosh, I tell you I'm a busy girl - from working full time, volunteering 80%+ of my time to my favorite and awesome community - Dogpatch - running 5k's to two (2!) Half marathons, organizing a neighborhood block party to being my buddy from college maid of honor just two weekends ago. I'm too busy to write in my blog post, plus I make time for my honey sweets - Kyle. :) I want to say my focus this year in 2016 would be to focus more on my writing and sharing the things I do on a personal level, like blogging where I can write more narrative than just "tweets" or Instagrams, or Tumblr, Google+, etc.  I like to write honestly. I used to write a lot in my journal from daily to every other day to once a week to where it started to dwindle. And I would think about this and be sad and unhappy that I'm not writing! It bothered me and then I learned to be okay with it but in the back end of th

Today is a good day! Lot's going on in our beautiful and amazing city!  I am thrilled to share with you my friend and neighbor Scott R. Kline blog post hot out of the press today!  I'm humming in my head: I am a Warrior! Hahaha Kidding aside...I am a proud San Franciscan. I really do enjoy being involved in my community, active, support my fellow neighbors and business folks because without the above, nothing will get done. We work together no matter what our differences are. The common goal is to communicate to make things happen. Therefore, I am in support of our Bay Area Team to move to Mission Bay or like some like to call it: Dogpatch Flats! People will want to explore this side of town and perhaps move here, too! After all, we are a CITY where things are moving and shaking all the time.  Enjoy the read:   indogpatch: Dogpatch Warriors has a nice RING to it: Meet you... : Three Dogpatch residents who support the new Golden State Warriors Arena in Mission Bay pose

Poem: Eve of Spring Season in San Francisco Sunshine...      ...birds happily chirp or I'd say they sing and fly around excitingly. The smell of fresh air, pretty flowers bloom and sun shinning bright in neighborhood. Runners out running along the embarcadero as I watch them from the Muni T line on my way to work.  I continue to believe and have hope. I am constantly reminded to be inspired and to inspire.  Stay proud of who YOU are.  ~vanessa "To be interested in the changing seasons is . . . a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring."  —  George Santayana
