Ice


I never thought the day would come when I would be asked to model for a major company. That day still hasn't come, but I wish it would. Sometimes i wish things just came easy...wishful thinking doesnt get many people anywhere...so I should stop.
My friend is a senior and fashion major in college. She asked me to model one of her outfits for a little runway show they're having! The theme of her wardrobe are the four elements: Earth, Wind, Water and Fire. I'm the fire element :) It will be exciting!

I went to Starbucks today.
I also really need to do my hair...this single color is not cutting it anymore.
Maybe some red and purple tones would do me some good.

Well...this is about enough blog thats gonna come out of me for today!
goodbye!

The Agenda

1. Wake up
- After a long night of dreaming, waking up is the 2nd most important part of my day.

2. Take a deep breath
- I'm making sure that I'm completely in my own body. Dreaming drains you.

3. Come into reality
- Open my eyes and come to terms with the fact that my dream may have been better than this.
- Coming into reality is the most important part of my day. It's also my favorite.
My dreams are always strange, i love them and i hate them. I wish i lived in them!
When i wake up, i know what i need to do to achieve the same happiness in my dreams.
A dream outside of my dream, if you will :) The opposite of Inception, i guess haha



Today is St. Patrick's Day!
This means I am officially obligated to go into work drunk :)

These are some old pictures i found of myself.
The first one is John and I :) Since March '07 <3

I do this a lot...

Today i was extremely productive :)

I cleaned the entire apartment, washed all the dishes, cleaned the litter box, and managed to feed myself!
I also hung out with an old friend :)
I missed her!
We went to Dragonfly tattoo and i watched as the artist dug into her skin with needles and ink.
It was awesome!
We also went to a cafe right after. I took some pictures :)

All in all: I had a nice time *^_^*

BTW...i ave a Tumblr account now :D.
It's a more exciting me! haha

I Can

The original name for this post was going to be "I Can't"....but that had to change.
A lot of things need to be changed around here.
For one: Im not my old self
Two: living with roommates suck. Im still a baby, i need my parents.
Three: i take things too literal.
Four: i havent gone out to take pictures in forever!

Photography, to me, is an artform. I wish people see things the way i see them.
something as simple as a fork...lets not take these things for granted. It IS just a fork...but gets us through the day a lot easier then u think.
I see a fork as a GREAT abstract-photo object...as well as a convenient utensil.


My point is: theres so much in life that ppl miss. Open your eyes and broaden your horizons.
The horizon might be the last thing u see. Dont just stand on the beach and look forward....feel the breeze, smell the air, let the water ease up to your toes....




There's so much more to this thing....i know there is.

It's Always Been That Way

So, I've noticed.

I just need some relaxation time. Just time to myself. Time that everybody needs now and then...or everyday of their life right?
Why does everything have to be about money?
I need money to buy food and clothes and gas and...pretty much to buy life.



I've set myself up for failure, it seems like. Or maybe just an obscurely, unfathomable way to set myself up for greatness. What makes it obscure and unfathomable is the fact that i feel like a failure....but really in the end...i'll be noted as an achiever. :D
Go me!
So technically...i set myself for success while doing it in a really crappy way :)




I've noticed that with every blog i write...they get more and more sad.
I don't mean for that to happen. I'm sorry to my 1 follower :)
I'll make it up with a suer cute picture :D





I keep trying to convince myself its gonna be okay
