“you are perfect the way you are”

my friend and i talked tonight. i love and hate talking to him –  i feel like he keeps me focused and grounded, but for some reason, he also makes me feel mentally inadquate. i know that’s just me being insecure, but i am constantly inspired and admirable of him… he is beautiful, educated, and giving.

this week was life changing — the circumstances of what i considered home, has changed forever. i had to be a pillar for the people who have fallen deep in the abyss of their problems. i had to help through the fire… to...Read more

smoke .

tessar is right, the smoke outside makes everything look romantic. i had no idea what he was talking about, because i had locked myself inside for the past few days. i had spent daylight indoors painting twelve hours a day. i have been drinking every day so far… a mild drunk, a creature of the night. yesterday i was out in the sun, something i haven’t done in at least three days. and tessar is right. it makes everything look romantic. everything was soft as cotton, blurred under a veil of soft hazel. i thought i would see roses and feel rain.. it fel...Read more

my halloween costume! yayyyy!!!

i painted my halloween costume! im sooo stoked!

so this year for halloween i am going to be this… festering.. wolf.. thingy…

i was going through the mail one time and i saw a postcard for an art gallery. the card was a bunch of girls in bikinis, sitting by the pool. the girls, however, were wearing gorilla masks.. it was pretty strange.. because u can tell people wanted to be turned on by the girls in bikinis, but the animal heads made it disturbing. i really liked it, and i wanted to do something similar.
