i'm sure once it begins to snow a lot i'll have plenty of lovely photographs of the wonderful snow. the leaves were wonderful while they were here but they honestly are starting to bore me. i can't wait to go downtown and take pictures of all the christmas lights they set up every year in the harbour, it really is beautiful there.

lately i've been listening to a lot of older music i have from tonic and metric and other random bands; it's nice to visit the past occassionally. it makes me smile to remember all of the memories attached to songs here and there.

You should put a submission in for the contest as well if you have a recent photograph of some lovely leaves or feel like taking a picture of some.

I revamped my entire website. It now only has my photography on it; it's sort of a portfolio for me to submit to universities and such as well as a way to advertise myself as a photographer.

I now offer PRINTS on my website as well! I haven't quite figured out how much they will cost yet, but I assure you they will be inexpensive. If you order a print it will come to you in a nice little yellow package (hand packed by myself) and will be signed and dated by yours truly on the back. Plus if you were to order more than one, it'd come as a packed price with a percentage off of every additional print your purchase. So if you're interested in possibly requesting a print from me go to my website to find out more.

i gave up on a lot.

my website, being optimistic, my body, my life, and most importantly - trying.

i've been having a very rough time lately and i just have gotten too close to reaching my breaking point. i'm lost and hurt and afraid beyond belief. yes, i know that some of these things are not the end of the world, but they do have a really large negative effect on my life right now and one thing in particular will scare me for sure. it's hard to see someone become a totally different person and you can't do anything about it; you can't tell them that their change is for the worst.

i'll eventually get my website back in order (not that anyone fucking visited it anyways) and it'll just be a photography portfolio. prints will also be available on my website which i guess is exciting, although i doubt anyone will order them.

i need a lot of help. please be understanding of that.

at the hospital, jessica, nikki, and i all got x-rays of things but it turned out that nikki was the only one who broke anything - she broke her wrist. jessica and i are both limping pretty bad and have chemical burns. jessica has a knot on her head too and my whole face is bruised and hurts pretty bad from hitting it, my forehead, jaw, and nose especially. noah had to get stitches on his chin. and jake only has chemical burns. i'm so very thankful that we're all okay. we're lucky to be alive to be honest. that car looks so messed up. i'll be sure to edit this once i can add pictures to it.

things like this just make you so thankful for your friends and family and your life in general. my boyfriend, who lives in pittsburgh obviously couldn't make the 5 hour drive to where i live. so i called him the next morning like he had asked my dad to have me do and i have never been so happy to hear his voice; it was so reassuring.

just live every day like something tragic like this would happen to you. enjoy your life more than you normally would.

i'm not quite sure if i would like putting my writing on deviantart, especially this account. i'd like to keep my writing separate from my photography for portfolio purposes. i'm just really lost about what to do.

so if you have any suggestions, just throw them at me (:

it's not the place necessarily, it's more the people than anything else. don't get me wrong, i love my friends and i love my family. i am just sick of how low the maturity level is for some people.

fall cannot come soon enough either; i'm dying to start wearing my jackets and moccasins. plus, that means more photography and inspiration for me (:

640 more days and i'll be headed north for quite a while.

not feeling life right now.

16th birthday on the 19th. i really don't care that much.

i absolutely loved it there. the mountains were beautiful and the steep streets and windy roads were amazing. the city was wonderful and the people there were even better. there were all kinds of little cool shops on east carson street in the south side - mike bought me a little fish charm for my necklace in one of the shops.

i'm planning on possibly going back for my birthday in august which would be fantastic.

some of the pictures i took in pittsburgh are uploaded but a few didn't turn out so well so i have to edit them. but i absolutely love the ones i took of mike i miss him so much and it was awesome to get to visit him.

i'm so very excited to finally see mike after 5 weeks. to be honest, this is the longest we've ever been apart after dating for over a year.

mike said he'd let me take some pictures of him so now you'll have more to look at than just plants and such.

recently, i've become rather fond of havesomehats.com. brilliant and adorable artwork. go take a look?

let's just say that wasn't the best holiday i've had :/ although, i did get some amazing shots. i love them. so go take a look please

pittsburgh on friday! and i'll get even more awesome shots there too.

i'm so glad to be back home and able to talk to mike now that my phone has ceased it's roaming. i got very sea sick on the cruise and then i happened to catch a cold when i thought it couldn't get worse. but now i get to be sick in my own bed at my own house so it's a tad bit better.

oh i was featured in a news article about nature which you can find here. there is some amazing photography there so take a look.

after i get back, i'm leaving that friday (july 10th) to go visit mike in pittsburgh. i'm so excited to see him after not being with him for over a month. this is the longest we've ever been apart. i'll get great shots of the city there and maybe even some of the mountain he lives on.

ooh, and we might have some sushi for dinner! yum ^____^

my laptop has finally been repaired and i will soon have it back with internet, and possible 2 extra gigs of RAM which will be fabulous.

i will also be celebrating my 16th birthday in august and have asked for a Nikon D60 from my mother, who said that is a great possibility. i will miss my extremely shitty digital camera, but will finally be able to expand my limits with a new, better camera.

i am going to pittsburgh to visit my beloved boyfriend who has moved there for college to live with his brother sometime in early july and i promise that great photographs will be a product of the visit.

as soon as i get my laptop back, i will go upload crazy and will have plenty of things for you to look at.

so glad to be back.

PS: i keep trying to change my mood but deviantart is being stupid. i'm not gloomy, i'm hungry lol.

i've been reading a lot lately. it makes me feel so calm sometimes.

and listening to old music and smiling when i think of all the memories attached with every note.

maybe i'll get lucky and get internet on my laptop again, who knows.

i'm really upset. i know it sounds dumb, because "it's only a goldfish", but i love them all, especially wednesday.

the strange thing is i had just been taking pictures of him and the other two while they were in a jar (i was cleaning out their bowl). so at least i got to get those i guess.

ugh i'm just very sad about it.

jessica is spending the night, and tomorrow we're going to walk to get lunch at hardee's and make a quick stop at wallgreens for some necessities haha. i'm sure i'll get a few pictures out of that as well.

mike is grounded...i miss talking to him so much.

i've felt really sick to my stomach the past week and my migranes have been getting worse. my friend told me it's just the sickness of an artist, i think it's stress seeing as how i'm not a very good artist. maybe i'll try to catch up on my sleep this weekend.

this year is so different from last it's unbelievable. i actually have a life other than attempting to sleep, schoolwork, and the internet. i like it but sometimes i kind of miss having at least 5 seconds to myself so i can gather up my thoughts. oh well.

underoath concert on tuesday! woo!
