FIRE FIRE FIRE!: written May 6th

so i have been writting my blogs out durning class on paper so please excuse the dates of my blogs. my schedule this session is madness. so this week has been event full, there has been a fire in santa barbara that started on cinco de mayo; this is the 4th fire that has happened since i moved here 3 years ago! i finished painting my fist triptic!!! i made it for the wedding present of my brother and his soon to be wirfe, they recently bought the cutest house and dont have anything on the walls, plus i really enjoy painting, i really hope they like it i dont want them to have to hang something up that they hate! i feel like im never home and i despertly need to clean and get groceries and pack for my trip home! i realized this week that i have a 3 week summer break after this session! im pumped, less school more play! my mother might bring me to hawaii<3 which would be amazing!! Anyway all my teachers this session are very odd haha but i guess that makes my life more interesting. Random thought i really need to clean the outside of my car! bak to school, i dred one of my classes im sorry but im really tired f learning about renisance and shakespear, this is the stuff went to highschool for, why did i put this clsss off for so long? that was really stupid of me, i cant wait till this weekend to chill and clean maybe do some drinking, ride my bike! i miss that so much but with my schedule i cannot ride to any of my classes, but i can ride to work! WOOHOO!

so sometimes i slack: written may 2nd


so break is over, back to class and stressfull scheduling. i felt like a child in class today, remember i am 21 and in my senior year of college and we were put in a circle to get to know all of my classmates names, i feel like this is unnessary we only have class together for 8 weeks, i dunno maybe im being negative. anyway i wrote a hand written letter today to a friend back home.
these next three weeks should be pretty crazy , i wrote out my schedule in front of me and realized holy crap i will have no life, im taking two main classes and buisness launch class that is required to graduate, poor diesel i hope ill have enough time to bring him to the beach!
so my break was GREAT! it started off with the pirate festical then a shoot for holiday inn where my images will be online and in adds! how exciting! then i wen back to LA to hang with a friend and then left for arizona at 8am the next morning, on the way to AZ i hit an hour of traffic in san bernidino, but made it with lots of music and my iphone camera! i got a little lost finding the hotel but when i pulled up y mom was sitting right outside so it was perfect timing, our hotel was fun we saw many cottontail bunnies that were OH SO CUTE!!! i could not catch then on any of my cameras for the life of me! anyway we went to the botanical gardens where they had a chihuli exhibit which was the wierdest thing but really intersting and challenging to photography. we then went swimming, got pedicures, tanned, shipped, ate great food, saw two movies, and layed around. my highlights were getting tan, laughing with my mother, putting my feet in the smallest hot tub known to man and laying on the hammock in 90 degree weather finishing a book. i finally finished beautiful boy so now im reading two books, go ask alice and i hope they serve beer in hell. im reading a humors book to switch things up a bit. my brother is getting married in less than two weeks i am so excited! i can not wait to be home again and watch my brother be happy! anyway thats it!

just because im loosing doesnt mean im lost

ive been crazy busy finishing up all my homework to end my session. I went to LA to visit a friend last night which was so much fun, then today we went to a pirate festival in the middle of no where Corona/Chino, CA and like my friend would say we entered a time warp. haha it was quite different but tons of fun, i bought two things that were hand blown, and one i will be giving as a present to my brother :). the highlight of the festival was for sure the plate throwing. for ONE dollar you got a plate that you could write anything on (anything you were mad at) so i wrote what i thought was approriate on mine, which i would post a picture of but i think that is too personal for a blog! haha and basically you get to throw the plate about 8 feet into a wall, that has metal dragon heads on it. well i completely missed the metal heads but smashed that plate super hard against the back wall. THIS WAS AWESOME! i never have been able to break a plate on purpose, or to let out anger. i did not come into the festival mad at all but i felt like i just threw my last 2 years of stress and anger on that plate. PERFECTION! haha anyway another highlight was i got to bring my little boy Diesel (my puppers) with me where he had a lot of fun and is completly pooped and has been sleeping ever since we left the festival. he got tons of attention while he was there and a french fry. :) so today was a great day. Tomorrow i get to do a shoot for holiday inn and then head off to PHOENIX to meet my mother! and go shoot and be hot and RELAX i am so excited i can not wait! it will be such a blast! PICTURES:
The ribbon you get when you break a plate! the rest of these photos are from the road trip to the festival and it was litteraly the middle of no where there were COWS!

Bridal Shower and Cambria <3

Bachlorette Party!

my potato plant!

Alright first im sorry for the abuse. I SUCK but these past weeks have been insane! anywho.. i went home last weekend for the bridal shower and bachlorette party! i had a GREAT time being home and it just reminds me how much i want to move back. I have plenty of pictures im going to post with captions. so when i got back to washington we went home and i got to see my kitty cambria i had to leave to my parents and she was really mean at first i think she is still mad, but she is a drama queen. so after alot of hugs and kisses we went and saw my pops at his house where we talked about his "cat" at his office and how she is going to have kittens any day. i wondered off in the middle of the conversation to their deck and checked out the forest behind their house (so pretty!) uhm next my cousin came over and we went out to dinner downtown edmonds at a mexican restuarant (imagine that) then i had to get ready really fast cause my brother wanted me to come over to his new house and go drinking with them. i got ready and headed over. i love their house its really cute and in the perfect area, i met alot of new people, i saw alot of people i grew up with and we watched some you tube videos shared some laughs and headed to ballard <3 oh god do i love ballard, we went to a place called Bel Mar which i felt so hip and trendy there with a crazy staircase and brick walls with struggling artist work on the walls. anyway had a great time, who wouldnt i had both my brothers there, my cousin, my soon to be sister in law (i think thats the right saying) and a couple of my brothers friends i have known since i was born. really. anyway after that great night went home to get up early and head to a bridal shower, with yummy food and funny people. so much family there. family i guess extended family can be very overwalming. after that we headed to the bachlorette party which was held at a place called "Amber" no joke! down in Belltown. seattle <3 where i guess i drank more than expected cause i took many pictures i dont remember all that much. or dont remember at all. there were lots of laughs and lots of dancing. thankfull to get home safe i passed out to wake up at about noon on sunday to go get my bridesmaids dress fitted before i left on a plane. i think it is really crazy how you get on a flying saucer and one second your in seattle and the next two hours your in santa barbara. i guess it just boggles my mind. somethings i have a hard time getting my head around.
what else is new:
I finally finished my twilight saga books: WOOHOO i was kind of sad of the ending but it was a good ending it finished the series and i was really thankfull it was not left open ended.
I read a book called TWEAK which i finished last night. really good book. this kids got a lot of problems but a great writter. you feel like he is telling you the story like when your haning out or something. anyway i really recommend it!
I will be starting beautiful boy today, which is a book written by the kid who wrote tweaks father. if that make sense his dad wrote about his experince with having a son on drugs. so i pretty excited to start that.
i posted my website for the first time live, it needs a lot of work and until im finished i will not post it, but im really excited for it! and i cant wait to work on it again tomorrow.
Diesel had alot of fun being boarded for the weekend, which is very comforting.
I got a job shooting an event at holiday in at the end of this month.
my potato plant i planted from scratch is HUGE, when i got back from my flight i almost passed out, i droped everything i was holding and just stood there repeating holly shit as i stared at my potato plant. i have to go out and buy a new and large pot for that sucker.
anyway i think that is pretty much it. check out my pictures!

weekend madness






today is a very blustery day.
SO i've been busy this weekend thats why i have not written, my friday started off interesting where i watched a really large spider that has made a web on my deck thats been there for a good week now eat a fly! it was happening right as i was leaving for work! then it was slow at work because no one really showed up till 11 in the morning then after i got off work at noon i was walking back to my car when i saw a film developing place where i remembered i droped off a roll of film about 2 months ago, it was a random roll and i have been avoiding picking it up because it had an old love on i, but then my friend on the phone told me not to be a pussy. so i did it, i picked up my film and im so glad i did cause it has some of the best pictures on it, almost made me cry when there were pictures of cambria my cat i havent seen in several months on it! then there were pictures of COCOA! oh how i miss that pup! it was soo good to see her sweet face again! and of course there were pictures of a love on it, but ya know it didnt hurt because..he was so happy and so was i at that point, i mean i quickly put them away but i kept my ones of cocoa, diesel and cambria out and framed one of them as the rest went on my famous bullietin board! i then curled my hair and then off to a friends, friends show at muddy waters and drank a beer haha, then we headed towards borders to pick up the Twilight dvd and when i got back home the sky was a bright red like i have never seen before it was crazy! and then once i got inside of course i was then up till 4 watching the extras on how they made the film with the special effects and everything which was really interesting and makes me want to be in the film industry now. so the next day i didnt get up till 1pm which is really unusual yes i stayed up till 4 but i dont think i have slept in that late EVER. so my saturday consisted of sitting around and reading i am now past half way done with New Moon haha GREAT so the second book is as good or maybe even better than the 1st! there are soo many exciting things going on in the book i have no idea how there going to fit it into a 2 hour or less movie. so im going to have to go back to borders today or tomorrow to get the third book, im so inthrawled(sp?) in this book it is rediculous. so after reading i cut my finder trying to turn my shower on haha then i got ready and a friend and i went to camarilo to go to a show which we soon left to go watch twilight cause he had never seen it, and i fell asleep on my book. TODAY WILL CONSIST OF HOMEWORK!
