idea

I was just thinking about shows I want to apply for. It made me think of an idea for this blog. We should post about different opportunities we come across and share. Whether its some juried art/photography show or just a really helpful website. A sort of inter-networking thing. What do you think?

famous?

So I am very proud of the fact that you are my best friend.

So...when someone mentions they went to TCC in Portsmouth I name drop. :-D Ive met several people who have met you/had classes with you. You leave a lasting impression hon.

I know you will be big some day. I look up to you and wish I had even an inkling of the impression that you have left on me and others I have encountered.

<3

lookie here



I just ordered this beauty. We are required within my department to have a medium format camera.

This is a twin lens, medium format, 120 film camera.


"Made between 1956-1961, the Yashica LM is similar to the Yashica C but has a built-in uncoupled selenium light meter under the hinged nameplate. It has the 3-element design, coated, Yashikor 80mm f/3.5 lens with a Copal MX 1-300 shutter.

This is an absolutely outstanding camera. The lenses are beaitfully clear with no scratches. The focus is smooth. The shutter fires nicely on all speeds. The self-timer works perfectly. The meter is working nicely but we know it cannot be considered accurate when compared to a modern light meter."

Throw back

lol Cassidy! lol

Obviously i'm pretty fucked up right now, i've been hanging with Charles and Jenny for most of the day,

Charles and I went shopping at the HIP (Harlem Irving Plaza) mall today, reminded me of old times with us. Just shopping, spending money we didn't have, buying things we didn't need.

Made me think,

Damn girl, I really miss you!
(But only because you're amazing)

Anyway, I spent almost $200

After shopping we went back to his place ordered a Pizza, then jenny came over, and maaaaan we went and got some Jello and got TRASSSSSSSSSSHED.

JELLLLLLLOOOOOO SHOOOOOOOOTSSSSSS
Those mother fuckers creep up on you,

I did like nine or so,

I'm at home now,

Miss ya' babe.

(Sorry I haven't responded to your previous message yet, i'll do so when i'm sober)

I have so much on my mind right now. One thought that can't seem to go away....not having enough time.

There isn't enough time to do all thats needed/wanted. There aren't enough hours in the day. That saying sounds so cliche but so true. My biggest concern is getting things done. I am a workaholic. I work as much as I can and have 19 credit hours in school.

"Will you be able to keep this up?" This meaning 29-32 hours at Walgreens, 3 hours VCUarts work study, 19 credit hours, 3-6 hours of roller derby, plus hw, and attempts at working out a week. My mom was concerned when I was explaining scheduling/time management things the other day. I told her that I really don't have a choice. Independence is important to me. I am not totally self sufficient in the least. I don't have all the knowledge required to take care of myself totally. I have confidence that I would be able to but I know I don't hold the wisdom.

But besides the whole independent thing, I really just want to be there for my mom. She has always been there to me, encouraging me, teaching me, and telling me that "We will figure it out somehow." No matter what the circumstance, she would work towards it. I want to be able to do as much for myself as possible because I feel I owe it to her.

I think about the fact that my writing really concerns me. I wish I had the same skills of expressing myself with writing, than I do with my art. My mom described my writing as everything that comes out of me head. Shouldn't it be? I guess its more of an organization thing. Then there is the whole part of portraying what I really want to get across.

Overwhelmed is what I am. I have an extreme urge to excel in all I do. I want to be a good employee, friend, student, and athlete (derby). I want to do well in school but I also want to work as much as possible so that I can pay my rent. I want to be able to afford the things I need. Not feeling guilty for spending money on necessities.

Robotic. I have my daily schedule. Its pretty set in stone with school and work but little things pop in inbetween. I might not have that set but its pretty evident that something will be going on.

I want more time. More time for class. More time to do my homework/projects. Time to enjoy the readings in Womens Study and to research my chosen topic for English 200. More time to sleep. More time to spend with my friends.to explore who I am. to love. to work. to skate...........

more time.

.. Are you insane?

"No i'm not, you mother fucker!"

Haha.

I'm watching clips of Serial Mom on youtube right now, this movies is hilarious. Yet another reason why John Waters is amazing, and Mink Stole & Kathleen Turner did a wonderful job.

Anywho,

Man I worked some crazy hours these last two weeks, yesterday was my first day off in two weeks and it was too sweet.

Smoking, Relaxing, playing with Lepore, watching movies, I definately dug it. That is until I got sick lol!

I ordered a pizza and wings, ended up eating the whole thing, Brian had to come home and take care of me

After we watched Blades of Glory,

Ended up being a fun day off.

:)

Just had the most horrifying day dream ever. Im on my way to work from va beach and passed a semi. I started thinking about what would happen if I died right then. I thought about gettin rear ended by the truck and smashed into a car in front of me. It was really vivid and I looked at my phone on my console. My first thought was that no matter what I would call my mom and somehow let her know that I love her a lot. It would be very important to me to talk to her and let her know how much she has affected me. I almost started crying thinking about how horrible it would be because I would not see my family anymore.

Would you still?

.....Light my candle?

You were saying that we need to post more pictures. I think that we should try to put a few on here now and then whenever there is a chance. Doesn't really matter what it is.


A) It makes our blog purdy
B) It can be inspiring
C) We can see what the other has been up to

paycheck

I got my first check today and mannnn do taxes suck. After taxes it was around 395 or something. It really sucks but my tax return will be nice. I wish I could work full time. :( Oh well, I am busy enough as it is. I don't know where I would fit the hours.

Rent is due tomorrow and I paid two days early. :-D I'm good like that. My mom transferred me money to cover the cost of the books. So right now I have a good amount of money left after rent. However, I still have to pay my utilities and Cable/phone/internet bills. I am trying to spend the minimum of money so that when rent day comes along, I am not pinching pennies to get it in.

Well I just wanted to stop by and drop a little note off. Lol. I'm pretty toasted and ready to crash. Anywho, I love you.

<3

p.s.-try to answer your phone sometime. It's friday out. I know you are out sluttin' the town.
