i am stuck on the couch with a cast on my driving foot, and crutches leaning on the table next to me-- and there's a bright, really bright blue sky outside and green grass. i'm dying. if i could run, i'd run. i'd give anything to run.


well anyways, meet my pooch lily. she's ancient, but still acts like a puppy. i love her.





... i went outside earlier anyways. the world's pretty today. go out there

I know you see me, like some wide eyed dreamer. But on the inside there's something you can't crush.

Where have I been.


?


SPRING BREAK!!! Oh yeah-- it rained the entire week. But I have my license, a bright blue eco friendly car, theeeee bestest friends, and a camera. Despite the rain, I had a good week. Very good.

So, as for a post. I have some pictures. That make me happy. #1 reason is because the weather looks lovely buuut it was really around 40 degrees outside and I almost died. I'm good at hiding that right? ;) We, me and Bridgette (my childhood, elememtary, middleschool, highschool blahh blah [so on] best friend) thought of the idea of using a mirror. We like to add something unique to each photoshoot we do.







...And then there's my paintings. I have so many of them up in my room. It's kind of funny, I didn't really start painting until January. I always thought I was aweful at it, so I never tried. Especially with sisters as talented as mine, I'll have to put up some of their work sometime. They're incredible. Anyways, I sort of taught myself that art isn't about being the best, or having every detail mastered.
Nahh... it's about letting out what's in your head onto a canvas and letting your hand do the work. And there is nothing as satisfying as looking at a once blank canvas that's now covered in your own, personal print. It's just so cool to think about!!

So, I don't really think I'm good at all-- but I never get frustuated with my work. Who says it has so be perfect?

I spent 7 hours on this yesterday when I had no life and I was slightly emotional. Hahahaha eeehhh. It's a picture of me and two of my sisters, in Florida. It's fun to paint a picture of something I took.



Annnnnd something I did last week. Of Bridgette, the girl in the shoot above. The edit changed the coloring completely.



April showers. Enjoy.

moon gazing. [adventures]

-
so we got up on the roof of a big old house and fell in love with the sky...

One of the most amazing, thrilling experiences I've had in a long, long time. The way my cousin's house is shaped, you can walk up on the roof (outside her bedroom window) and travel up.

There was a full moon, actually a super moon that night-- plus millions of stars.




Take time and stargaze. Trust me you'll never be disappointed. :)
