The Dancing Shutter.: La Jolla Cove Engagement... →
dancingshutter:
Before I flew back out to San Francisco, I had the pleasure of shooting Mariel Martin and Keone Madrid’s engagement photos. These two were the funnest, weirdest, most perfect madly-in-love couple I have ever shot. It was definitely at the top of my favorite photo shoots lists. They made the…

self-realizations pt. deux
I don’t deserve my friends.
I’ve talked about this before, but now that I’m back in the Bay Area for winter break… I feel even worse about the horrible job I’ve done at staying connected to my friends here.
I think I subconsciously intended (does that make sense?) to distance myself from everyone at home. I selfishly, solely concentrated on my life and goals and...

BURP: self-realization
I’m a bitch. I know I am.
It’s not something I’m proud of all the time though. I don’t know why I don’t have a filter; I say some really fucked up things out loud, in public, at the most inappropriate times. It’s funny because literally right after I say something really mean and/or out of line and/or annoying… I feel so bad and just want to hide under...

i haven't
… been the best at this long distance friendship thing. I didn’t follow through with any of those planned “skype-dates,” nor did I ever call or text you at least once a week to update you on my life. I didn’t answer most of your calls or text messages right away (or didn’t answer them at all sometimes).
Woof. I feel so horrible and disconnected from you…...

BURP: support.
I’m thankful for the people who were there for me when it mattered most & continue to support me in everything I do. I’m thankful for the people who genuinely care… who don’t assume, but confront me instead… who text/call me with words of encouragement (even though I continually fail to respond because I’m so busy)… I’m thankful for the people...

BURP: rain.
It’s Sunday evening. I just checked the weather forecast and it’s supposed to rain in New York City on my birthday (December 7th).
This news would be extremely upsetting to most people, but to me… it’s actually quite comforting.
It has rained every year on my birthday/the day I celebrate my birthday since as far back as I could remember…
I think the first time I...

note to self:
If you just do the stupid work and get it over with, there will be nothing to complain about. Studying and doing homework now > failing later on.

trendsetter
According to the New York Times, I am a trendsetter:
You are something of a traditionalist in your approach to life and you see the most beauty in classic forms and styles. A true socialite, you love a sense of the grandiose and your style reflects this strong elegance. You are an emotional spirit and you make really strong connections. Good friends and lots of laughs are the recipe for really...

First 'official' full week in NYC:
Classes: My classes are full of intelligent, but cut throat people; I was sort of intimidated at how feisty they were at first. Then I stopped being self-conscious and realized I’m just as, if not more, cut throat than they are. Haha. Oh and my professors are all nuts. On the first day of english, for example, I was assigned an essay due the next meeting and had to write an in-class,...

As I lay here...
I just cannot believe how extremely blessed I am to be living in this great city. So much food, adventure, and craziness all day every day. I’ve been so busy that I have yet to respond to half my text messages that I received the night I left San Francisco.
I’m gonna be on even more of a hiatus these next few days too. I have a full day of my more difficult classes tomorrow, work in...

to my amazing best friend and boyfriend:
Where to begin?
I never thought I’d meet someone like you… kind, honest, caring, loving, genuine, considerate, protective when need-be, quirky, funny, charming… the list of positive adjectives goes on forever. You’re everything I could ever want, and yet you continually strive to become a better you, not only for yourself, but for me.
But to me, for me…...

12 days left living in SF
I officially move to New York City in 12 days. I’m scared as hell… not so much scared of moving, but more-so scared of moving and feeling like I didn’t make the most of my summer. I have no idea how I’m going to get through this list since most of my friends have already started school, but I hella hope it works out. I’m probably crazy for hoping this will actually...

BURP: earthquake in the East, earthquake in the...
Okay, okay… so it was kind of funny to see how people in the East Coast reacted to - what was for most of them - their first earthquake. I’ve seen a couple of humorous status updates and tumblr posts from West coasters digging at East coasters (guilty) for reacting so big to something that is so normal for us in California. It was all in good fun, but now that everyone has settled...
