Project 365; Day 51
I guess I should stop staying up till 10:30/11ish working on pictures xD
But you know, I've noticed i fall asleep faster, and sleep deeper when i stay up ;]
its kind of nice, lol
anyways i was in two grocery stores today :P and i took my camera with me
i only took a handful of pictures, mostly of peppers and milk jugs xD
i forgot that i wanted to take pictures of the asparagus because they were up by the mirrors in the veggie aisle and they looked cool. bummer.
however, its crazy, i started noticing people and imagining their portraits in my mind. i didnt talk to any of the people who caught my eye though. im still working on taking the camera everywhere ;] one step at a time lol
anyways tomorrow is a busy day, its my moms birthday party so i should go to bed :]

Project 365; Day 43
This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shakin' off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal for the life I lead
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're 'here' not 'there'
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see?
They're tryin' to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight bags, Some never thought I could
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run till you can't walk
Something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're 'here' not 'there'
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, you don't need
What you need, what you need, what you need
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Oh, do you see what I see?
- Stop And Stare by OneRepublic
wow that song makes this seem all depressing and stuff xD
i just randomly decided to take a picture of my feet and then thought of the song later, lol
but i like it so much so i posted the whole thing :]
please pardon the dirty wall. thats what happens when 7 people and a dog live in a house :P walls get dirty
Guessss who is turning 17 tomorrow?

Project 365; Day 42
and of course the obligatory vintage-y one xD
I have seen the rain
I have felt the pain
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
I don't know where I'm going
I don't even know where I've been
But i know I'd like to see them again.
.....
We have seen the rain, together
We have survived the pain, forever
Oh it's good to home again
Its good to be with my friends
Oh it's good to be home again
It's good to feel that rain
- I Have Seen The Rain by Pink
if you didnt see this on Project Pentad, I'd like to post it again x3
its kind of my favorite.
Im enjoying the beautiful weather while it lasts :P At least it isnt snow and at least its not 20 degrees outside. It was actually up to 60 today, lol
Hey, what do you think of borders? i was feeling lazy and didnt add them today xD
but do think borders look better?

Project 365; Day 35
I regarded the world as such a sad sight
Until I viewed it in black and white
Then I reviewed every frame and basic shape
And sealed the exits with caution tape
Don’t refocus your eyes in the darkness
And don’t remember this place unless
I describe all the things that you cannot see
And we’ll unravel the mystery
song of the day is Dear Vienna by Owl City :]
I went out into knee-deep snow to take these :P
thats dedication. lol xD
actually i wasnt aware it was THAT deep until it was too late
but still :P

Princess
Maybe I'm just in a black and white frenzyyy today
but i love it xD two siblings down, two more to go
I cant decide with the last two which version i like better
And you have no idea how long it took me to get her hair done xD I've never curled anyones hair before (not even my own) so it was interesting :P
i think she had fun though.

v is for...




These were kind of confusing because i had this idea in my head how i wanted it to look and then i couldnt seem to figure out how to do that. It was awkward looking when i tried to use my hand and just wasnt coming out the way i planned, lol.
So my dad volunteered to be my hand model since i obviously needed a few more pairs xD
The capsules I used were kind of cool, and my dad was just going to throw them away so i might save them and take more pics later if i come up with anything xD
I need some backdrops that are not bed sheets or curtains and arent all wrinkly xD
I also need some lights.
And while I'm at it... I need a studio too xD with lots of space.
