Today it looks like winter. 
Went to the ever so modern library downtown today for a shoot my class had to do.
Spent almost 3 hours outside and it’s only in the mid 40’s for weather.
I needed some mittens.
Working all weekend, and house hunting possibly if I can find the time.
These were some test shots taken today.
I look cold and unhappy >.<

Hope you’re all having a wonderful day! xx 

Took and adventure with my best friends for Easter.My friend Kyle&#8217;s grandmothers old house is abandoned so we decided to take a trip inside. Was too afraid to walk upstairs incase the floor caved in, but thought this shot gave a creepy feel.

Spent the night in tonight for the first time in awhile. 
Thought I’d edit some pictures for my upcoming finals for my Editorial class.
My theme is Venue LIfe.

Here’s some shots I’ve been playing with from the D.R.U.G.S show at the Varsity Theatre last Wednesday night. Enjoy xx

Did this shoot about a month ago. I was inspired by Angelina Jolie&#8217;s photograph similar to this. I&#8217;m pretty happy with how it turned out! It&#8217;s hard to hold a cigarette in your mouth and pose your face just right. 
Enjoy. x

What a hell of a week. I&#8217;ve been stressed over so many different things, and most of them I could of controlled if I wasn&#8217;t such a procrastinator. Oh welp. I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot about the future, and have made plans for this summer to do a ton of great things. I can&#8217;t wait to get my tax returns so I can finally tattoo my arm. Also stoked on my new jobs this month! This weekend will be relaxing (hopefully). Going for happy-hour sushi with a few of my girls tomorrow night. I&#8217;ve missed it! My moods have been pretty regular and I&#8217;ve been doing fine with keeping myself busy, but I do always feel lovesick. Wish I wasn&#8217;t spending Valentine&#8217;s Day sitting in school for 11 hours. Boy do you miss a lot when your loved ones never home.Complain complain complain. I can&#8217;t believe how fast Spring is coming. I cannot wait for April. SO much going on, and my birthday as well!
Hope you all have a wonderful end of the week. xx

Here&#8217;s a little preview from the pictures I took from tonight&#8217;s performance: City &amp; Colour
One of the most incredible concerts I&#8217;ve ever attended. Beautiful music from an amazing soul. I have loved Dallas Green&#8217;s music for almost 6 years now and hearing the songs that I used to listen to when I&#8217;d have a rough day, or simply take a bath to; his live voice is even better then the C.D&#8217;s could ever do him justice. He&#8217;s truly a great artist, and I feel so blessed to have been able to see him perform. x

Photo shot by my lovely friend Ally Grenz earlier today
Spent a wonderful evening with one of my best friends. She made me dinner and we sat in her kitchen catching up on each other&#8217;s lives and then watched random videos on YouTube while playing games on our phones. It was a nice ending to this week. On my drive home I had a sudden urge to get lost. So I took streets I didn&#8217;t know where they&#8217;d take me and I always ended up back to the same ole familiar roads. It amazes me how much this world is connected by roads. That no matter where you go, you can always find your way back home. I did this for about an hour, listening to music on shuffle. Moments like that are what keep my sanity. I do get time to myself quite often, but something about driving at night in a car alone is both humble and lonely at the same time. I&#8217;ve been in a weird mood, but a good one.

Another image from my final &#8220;wasted time&#8221;.
I am incredibly grateful for the journey I am taking. I&#8217;m finally content with my goals, dreams, and relationships. I feel humble for everything I have experienced the past few years and have a feeling these next few coming years are going to make up for all the wrongs and misunderstandings in the past. I love my job, and everyone I work with. I enjoy what I&#8217;m going to school for, and continue to amaze myself with what I can create. I&#8217;m where I am today thanks to the wonderful people in my life currently. I&#8217;m back on track with my healthy routines and sleep well through the night. 
The only thing I could do without is constantly missing loved ones. Throughout my entire life I&#8217;ve always been separated by distance with family and friends. I wish I could just take everyone I love and put them all on and island so I never have to miss anyone again.
I hope you all had a wonderful Monday! xx
