Honestly (A Photo Idea)

To Where Mary Poppins Will Never Land...

(An old photo from last month or so:)

...Not here in Rochester.
It was a low of 51ยบ here and I believe it's summer.

Male Model Search

I'm currently on a mission to photograph more males since the male population in my portfolio does not exist.
And speaking of portfolio... my }website{ is starting have what my carbonmade has to offer. There are glitches here and there, but it will be fixed soon, I hope. I might have to demand for a refund if it's not fixed in time. On a better note, my }Model Mayhem site{ got some sort of face lift.

Anyway...
...if I need to place a blame, I would blame my favor on schooling. Going through more than enough single sex schooling than a normal person should have, I guess I have come to favor women more than men. And just to clarify, I do not mean that for all forms of relationships. 


I'm in much need of styling, directing, and modeling practice with male models since my idea of shooting guys is dressing them up with suspenders and a newspaper boy hat. If anyone knows any guy that has touched upon the modeling business, or that would like to dabble with it, please send them my way!

Dress, Shorts. Shorts, Dress.

One of the dresses I've transformed since the beginning of the summer break. It still needs the lace I wanted to put as an accent on the sleeves but it's now more wearable than the way I bought it:

Also, I decided to alter pants since I had a couple that were lying around merely housing dustbunnies instead of keeping my other clothes company.


I now match my kitchen. Hooray!

I'm a little addicted to using my sewing machine than I've ever been. I might post more clothing alterations depending if my life gets a little bit more exciting.

Yo Ho Ho...What's This Show?

While Fuse plays its reruns of Gaga Overload/Gaga Takeover, I'm going to sneak in a couple of minor epiphanies that were graffitied on my clean, white sketchbook...

Break away now that you know how to be like everyone else.


Be innovative. React to your experiences and not just to the experiences happening around you.


They teach you how to obey and listen so you question the right things.


And maybe I'm a little late in the game, but someone has to be the follower to the leader.

Given that all these were written when I was in some sort of white-wine haze, but they still make some sense to me. Junior year of college was probably the best year to find out a lot about myself. It was also the year that I've fully embraced a number of things I've tried to push away for the last five years. I lost a number of friends and things along the way, and in exchange, have gained some sort of self-acceptance and recognition to what feels right and wrong. Now it's just a matter of becoming more innovative and to stay true to that peculiar little girl I've always been.

Cheers.
