Out of the Box!

outofthebox

Thinking. Ah, thinking. It’s so important, so simple, yet often times… so overlooked! Here at Flamingo, we value it so much, that it’s one of our ethos! Always be thinking.. “Is there another way?” Not only is thinking important, but so is creativity! In fact, that’s another one of our ethos at Flamingo. Constantly be thinking, “Are there other things that already like this? What can I do to make it fresh.” I remember when I was younger, my favorite show used to be, “Out of the Box.” In that show, there were five kids who would meet together, and pull some random objects out of the box… and create an adventure with them! With a spatula, a spork, and a beach towel, they’d create their own space adventure! I loved the show because it encouraged you to dream, use your imagination, and let your creativity roam wild.

Creativity is absolutely key. Think “out of the box.” Don’t be afraid to get creative and try new things! A lot of time, people stick to the status quo, and as a result, they can miss out on an AMAZING idea or concept. God blessed you with a big ‘ol brain… use it to think out of the box!

Country Cuban

Ileana Ortiz (a.k.a. Country Cuban) is the Director of Online Communities at Flamingo Road Church, an intern at 8BIT, and a freshman at the University of West Florida. She is a Jesus lover, people lover, and a world changer. Her family has seriously impacted the way she lives her life. She gets her sense of humor and passion for helping others, from her mom. She gets her business sense and realistic expectations from her dad. She wishes she could match the game of her little sister, because her little sister has had more boyfriends in her 7 year life span, than Ileana has ever met, in her 18 years of living. She loves to think of herself as a comedian, and hopes that people are laughing with her, not at her. She is constantly being mistaken for celebrities such as Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Penelope Cruz, Jessica Alba, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, and Angelina Jolie. She also happens to enjoy reading, writing, some good country music, all things tech, and when autumn rolls around.... a frothy Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks! I guess you could just say that she is your average 18 year old.. well.. not really.
