Hope for the hopeless.

What I don't understand is why some people just can't move on with their lives. Yes, I realize it's hard to let go of people or things that may have meant a lot to you at one point in time but life happens, we all change, you can't hold on to the past or something that once was or what could have been. It doesn't always work like that; all you can do is be there for that person as much as your life allows it and if it's meant to work out either they will be constant in the time to come or you will drift apart. If that time comes remember the memories you have of them or of it.

Life is too short to deal with crap like that.
Get over yourself be happy that they're there or that they're happy, move on.

back to the beginning.

- 2007.
two in a half years plus some to come.
love you handsome.

mash up 02.


You're gentle now, but I recall
Both tender fire and bitter squall
A history so deep it hurts to look

Oh the elements I do not fear but
I fall apart when you appear
Cos you are the greatest
The greatest disaster

The circles darken round our eyes
And yet our bodies, when combined
They gleam like diamonds in cave

My cheeks red like fire engines racing
straight to the heat of your skin

Heloise gave her whole heart to Pete
Now eternally sleeps by his side
Oh, go ahead, fate, oh, give us your best
What is worth living for is worth a fight

If I were old, my dearest, you would be older
But I would crawl upon your lap
Wrap a blanket round our frail little shoulders
And I'd die happily like that


tribute to A Fine Frenzy:

"Elements"
"The World Without"
"What I Wouldn't Do"

so far so good!

-image from lelove.blogspot.com

i have accomplished the following on my mini to-do list so far:

- got my hair dyed! i took the plunge and i will hopefully be able to post a decent photo soon.
- opened up a savings account! still havent saved any money though. working on it!
- i havent used any tutorials for either my tablet or photoshop but i have been messing around with both things ( i created my header with both programs!) and slowly getting used to them :)

slowly but surely ill hopefully get to check off more things ! as of right now a mini update is school is starting to get a wee bit stressful, i can feel it creeping up-i have two assignments due this week which i've been working on. i purchased myself an ipod touch off the apple store yesterday, it was quite exciting because i've been waiting for the price to go down for 2 1/2 years and it finally did! i got an 8GB for 219 dollarsss! they're usually 239.99 plus tax. it should hopefully be shipped sometime this week :)

i have another photography assignment due on friday which im also excited to complete, i'd like to actually think of a really good theme/subject matter for my photo content this time but i'm still in the midst of brainstorming. i too will post a few photos once i've taken them !

well i best be going to bed, i know i promised a link drop but its almost 2am and i need a somewhats decent nights sleep so i can function to write my essay tomorrow! wish me luck!

peace&lovee

oh, it is love.

miss these days.


HAH yeah, need to keep up better with posting more regularly. i actually have a good reason this time, this past summer i worked THREE jobs, im sure people have done more but for me it was insane. so morning noon and night you could find me working about 98% of the time. the other two percent i was trying to catch up on sleep plus see michael/friends/family. it was quite exhausting. but i managed to save up enough money to pay for one semester of tuition :)
speaking of tuition, school has obviously started. second year and everything! quite crazy that i've already made it through one entire year of university without losing my mind (completely) i've been trying to get back into the swing of things, trying to stay more organized than last year, which hasn't been going entirely the way i had hoped but it could be worse. commuting kinda sucks cause i have to plan my day about an hour 1/2 ahead of schedule so i'm not late, bypassing traffic and not feeling stressed the minute i walk onto campus, but the actual driving part isn't too shabby. i just need to buy myself some more blank cds so i have more of a variety of music to listen to! i have 5 classes in total per week with wednesday's off which is uhmazing. i didnt realize how nice it was to have a day off in the middle of the week! i haven't been a total social butterfly since i am living at home so i've missed basically all of the frosh events-boourns. LMFAO friggin performed on the humber campus and i wanted to go so badly but i got stuck working :( oh well, another time.
my photography class this semester isn't sucking unlike last year! my professor is Mike Berube, he works for the New York Times and is TWENTY THREE YEARS OLD. yess people, you read right, hes 23 and works for the new york times. how in the hell he managed to snag that job i have no idea but i definetly plan on asking him! he's turning out to be a totally chill prof who can relate to us in the whole sense that we're broke, super busy students trying to balance social lives with getting good grades and getting to where we want to go. i've learned so much in the past two classes then i did all last year so i've been pretty darn excited to learn more! i actually have my first photography assignment due this friday, and we have to hand in a minimum of 10 photos, so because i do like my prof so much i don't want to disapoint him at all. thus resulting in more pressure to do a good job which ='s in me thinking WAY too hard about what i should be shooting/themes/ideas etcetcetc. the only good part out of the immense amount of thinking that i've been doing is i'm realizing how little i really do know about photoshop! i know how to do the basics but anything fancier i'm lost lol.

besides school stuff, i've been also thinking about my personal life lately and there are a few things i'd like to change about myself. mostly personality wise and a few things physically. lately i've been really hypersensitive and cranky (no its not just because its that time of the month) and just really pessimistic. i used to be this crazy carefree girl and i feel like i've lost the part of me somewhere along the way. i'm not sure why, i think maybe because all summer i was stressed out from work plus no sleep plus no social hangouts with friends and no trips anywhere like the cottage except for once the whole summer. i think its taken a toll on me and my relationships with my friends and family and i definetly need to do something about it.

so over the past month of september there are a few things that i need to do:

-photoshop tutorials
-tablet tutorials
-get my hair dyed
-get my second tattoo (preferably on my twentieth birthday)
-finish fixing up/organizing my office
-open up a savings account
-start saving more moolaah.
-start taking pictures 24/7 again
-start blogging more frequently

OH and i will definetly be doing a link drop in the next post to come so stay tuned for that!

hope everyone's enjoying the last days of summer and first days of fall :)

peace&love
