I hate the blogger update, I've been not updating it and not updating it for a long time..And now it did it without me telling it to.. haha :P It was nice and simple before, but now its confusing XD :P
But, things have been going pretty good lately! Im working my butt of with my dad to get a job finished so I can get payed some dough. ;D My brother and I are working at some really big (very very pretty) ranch house with a 350 foot long fence :P They're yard is massive, and ive seen coyotes walking around in it!! We are sanding, scraping, priming and tomorrow painting it! I am putting all the money I earn to try and get into a debate camp in June :P The work is very very grueling :P Even my brother said that its probably one of the hardest jobs hes done, (and that's saying a lot, cuz hes worked quite a few hard jobs) I think its because its been really freaking hot, and you have to bend down all day, and its on kind of a hill, and its really dusty, and having to hand sand and scrape..its hard :P But if I don't make enough money in time, (which is likely :\ ) Ill put all the money toward either a camera, or get my pictures taken for my modeling portfolio. (Long story, but I am basically considered a model, I have an agency, but I have not had my portfolio, which means I wont really get a job..haha) Whatever :P Once I get my portfolio, hopefully Ill start getting some! :D
Me :P
Firework, I took this picture in Disneyland :)
And this is actually a pretty old pic that I just edited recently :P
Welp, those are all the pictures I have to post for now :P I have not been taking nearly as many pictures as I used to :(
I know I have not posted a real post in far too long dear followers..So, as I sit in the depths of despair and darkness I offer you my utmost apology, pouring my very heart out and soaking my pillow with weeping...Either that I'm just stuck in my bedroom saying "sorry for not posting dudes" with a burnt out light bulb..Choose whichever story you see fit :P
Life has been pretty great lately :D Had some sad moments, some happy ones, goofy, amazing, and even bittersweet, But all in all...I'd have to say I had a great summer :D Right now I am studying (and studying..and studying...) to get into the collage of my dreams. Patrick Henry. I know I haven't been focusing on my school as much as I should if I really want to go there..But I'm going to try and work on that more in the following months :) I have some mixed feelings about the collage.. (seeing as it is in Virginia...) On one hand, I don't want to leave my friends, family, and half my life behind, and on the other hand my brain is telling me "Go for it! If you don't at least try, you'll really regret it in 5 years!" So..I've got a little blender in my head with a bunch of thoughts crammed in there spinning around :P
My camera broke..It wont recognize if there is a memory card in there..So now I am only using a phone camera that my friend Wesley gave me :) It has 5 megapixels, and works fine for me ;) Most of my recent pictures are on my Instagram...and I hardly do much with them now :P
Im officially going to be in Disneyland in 4 days!! I'm pretty excited about that :D I will be gone from the 6th-13th :D I will be there with Wesley, his family, my older sister Shay and her boyfriend, Benny :) Its gonna be a blast. (and I am going to take maaany pictures) ;)
Something else that I am wildly excited about is the fact that I get to go to a Blue October concert. Blue October is one of my favorite bands. (If not my favorite) Justin's music has so much feeling and heart...Its just amazing...and I am so happy that I get to see him in person :) I so wish I could meet him...And ya know what? Someday I will! Thats not even a maybe or a possible. I will meet Justin Furstenfeld if it kills me. :P
You see that face? That is the face of someone who literally pours every single feeling into their music. He's someone that I really admire, because despite his hurt and issues that he has to go through, he really does write music to help people in pain. He's the kind of person that I can really just describe as a beautiful person. Even if that does sound cheesy or anything. It's true.
Question of the post!!!
What band are you literally dying to see in concert?
Well, I had better sign off!! Thanks for reading! :)
You know those times when life just seems to be going so great? You have great friends, awesome family, happy things, and totally amazing wonderful memories that flood to your head when you hear certain songs start to play...Life seems to be looking like that for me..I have recently re-connected with some friends I have not been talking to as much lately, I had an awesome weekend, and everything just seems to be looking up :)
Of course, there are a couple of annoying things..But not so much that they are gonna dampen my mood! ;) I got whiplash on Tuesday :P That's one of 'em :P Sure, it hurts..haha XD It doesn't make much sense that I got it...It was from being in the back of an old school bus with no seat belts..and the driver went over a couple of speed bumps too fast and..yeah..haha :P
Iv'e also been missing California..I know I mentioned that a little bit ago..But its still true :P I miss the warmth, the beach, the sun, the..awesomeness :P It also doesn't help that I have been thinking about it more than usual ;) The weather here has been absolutely insane..I mean, it was (seriously) like this..Shorts one day...Snow the next.. Shorts the day after that...and then insane amounts of rain. Like that. Seriously. Now its raining again...I love rain, but this is a little crazy! haha
I was recently going through and looking at some of my old pictures.. Some of them aren't so great..and some of them I'm still kinda happy with :P Maybe I'm just super picky... But I rarely like a picture I take :P
These are some older ones (These ones are from April)
I want a cat so badly. Someday I will have one. Just so ya'll know ;)
I also miss Portland. I mean, I live close enough that I can just take the bus over there..But I have not been there for a while..:P Its seriously my happy place though..Someday, I will take all day and just walk around..Sit in a coffee shop and watch all the people pass by, drink some coffee and look at Pinterest ;D
But I have not really been doing much photography lately..So I don't have very many pictures that I can post :P I'm sure once it gets warmer..and the sun comes out I'll start taking more pictures..But for right now, my camera is just sitting in my room trying its best to look happy with a yellow smiley face sticker stuck to it ;)
I am so looking forward to when the streets dry up, so I can get my skateboard out of my room and start riding it again :D
Well, thanks for reading! :D Comments mean the world to me :) Also, there is a poll in the corner..That you can vote on if you want!
and Now...................
Question of the post!!!
(that sometimes has something to do with the post..and sometime doesn't..)
What are some of your favorite things to do during the Summer? :D
So, right now I am really quite pleased with myself ---> Pleased face ---> ^_^
I am happy because because I have the beginnings of a very nice tan! Well, maybe it's not worthy of being called a tan, (yet) but compared to my white pasty Oregonian face that I was wearing before, I am making some progress. Yes, I am still just as bad as even the most pale of my friends, Yes, I have only been working at it for about two days. No, I was not with a monkey. and Yes, I am pleased with myself. ^_^ heehee!
You know what? I really need a flashlight. Every single night I get into my pajamas, pull my hair back into a ponytail, and climb into bed....Then comes the annoying part... The second I close my eyes my brain releases all it's thoughts, ideas, colors and posts that it has kept locked up all day onto what it wishes it was paper. So I lay there, caught up in all of those ideas and listening to that very annoying fly buzzing around and wishing for a light that would not annoy my trying to sleep little brother... (and that the fly would go away...) Because I know that if I do not write down my ideas there by stopping my brain from screaming "WRRRIIIIIITE MEEEEE DOOOOOWN!!!!!!'' than my brain will keep thinking thoughts, plotting posts, and growling at that very annoying fly till I find out it is four in the morning and I still have not gone to sleep..
I do keep a notebook and pen by my bed....and sometimes I am able to hunt down my cell phone and use the lantern, but that still not very bright and I have to stop it from closing ever thirty seconds of so. :P haha
So, I came to this conclusion: (after much thought, many notes and sitting up many nights) I SHOULD GET MYSELF ONE OF THOSE HANDY LITTLE WIND-UP FLASHLIGHTS!
Well...I kind of lost the rest of my post...As in...It was written in a notebook and my notebook decided to take off.. (More like I thought I put it in a safe place, but then found out that I have no clue where that safe place was. ) So I will post fourth of July pictures... ^_^ But not very many, I wanna save them for the fourth of july POST!!!!!!!! Yep. That's it.

There, is that enough pictures? I think so...I don't wanna make it so long that everyone looses interest..... :P heehee....
I had an awesome time at AnnaLise's house yesterday, we played with the neighbor kids, Ryan and Brianna. :D Capture the Flag was epic, girls totally MURDERED the boys!!! HAHA!!!!!! I had fun with that... haha. Three games in a row for girls....NONE for the boys....
We also played in the pool for a while, Marco Polo was pretty fun. lol I was it only four times the entire time, and that is only because Ryan was totally trying his hardest to find me (he said it was not fair that I had not been it yet) and Wally and AnnaLise were totally trying to help. (Trying?!?!? "LEFT! RIGHT!!!! BEEEHIND YOU!!!!!!") heehee, that was epic. x)
Well, I am getting a little long here...And warm...I am so warm...AND I AM TRYING TO TAN!! AHHHHHAGAGAGAGAG!!!! And I have to go to the library..........So,
Goodbye my faithful readers!!! (I am at 19,860 pageviews!!!! THANK YOU!!!) :D :D
