Oooooh!

I thought of something exciting!
I have 2 new dresses that I found at Model Citizens ( the vintage shop downtown if you didn't know).
A plaid spaghetti strapped Ralph Lauren, and a dress labeled 'the hot little black dress' from Forever 21 - it buttons up.
Photos to come later?

Also I finally got around to reading 'The Time Traveler's Wife', great so far, realized the film comes out on August 14! Soooo excited :D Rachel McAdams is perfect to play Clare.

Harry Potter HBP was comical. It strayed from the book, but kept a lot. This was supposed to be the more serious one.. so I'm not sure why it had so much more humor than the others. It baffles me. But it was ALLL worth it just to see the end. This is a spoiler for those who don't know.. so DUMBLEDORE DIEDDD! and it was fantastic!

Other than that I've been having an internal debate on buying a pair of platform gladiator sandals.. they're adorable, but with my klutziness I'm not sure it's a wonderful idea.

That's all for now..

Me. Moi. Mich.

So I haven't really written about me, just.. poetry type things. Alors, here we are. An entry dedicated to myself.

Firstly, my main language is English, but, as previously demonstrated in the last sentence, I am known to randomly use words French words. This comes from taking French immersion for 6 years, and core French the 2 years prior. In addition to French (which I can speak conversationally), I am also able to speak basic German, and am in the process of self-taught Russian.

I am 17 years old, having just finished, and hopefully graduated from, grade 12. I reside in St. John's, Newfoundland ..which is in Canada if you didn't know.

I am very into photography, and am slowly trying to gather more equipment, and hopefully some models so that I can practice portraits that aren't of myself. Having gotten into photography I frequent and am part of DeviantART, and Flickr. I also browse through random photography sites, Model Mayhem (both for inspiration and search of local models) and lastly Lookbook. I find that lookbook can not only give me inspiration for my wardrobe but also for my photography. I have also found that my need to look not only presentable, but 'fashionable' - but in my own sense(not a clone of everyone else) and I'm thinking of applying for a Lookbook account, though I am undecided.

Other than photography my greatest loves are reading/writing (fiction, non-fiction, poetry..blogs), music/singing and drawing. While I think I have gotten off to a good start in photography, and am possibly above-average is writing, and have been told I have a great voice, and am a wonderful artist, I STILL doubt myself in these areas. I have greatly improved my confidence over the past few months though.

I don't really know what else to say, so that's it for my little autobiography I suppose.

ta ta for now

My Mistake

Do you think you could be proud of the measly things I've done
When you look down on me do you think my life's over or just begun
Decisions, decisions, so many thoughts run through my head
I wish you were here to help me but sadly you're in heaven instead.

And my striving goes unnoticed
Do they really think they know this
It's my life
my choice
my mistakes.

It's only for the best, it's what they always say
but I sit here and wait, 'til I can see the day
when we're together again
it helped so much
you lifted me up when I was down
and in your head I always wore a crown

and my striving goes unnoticed
do they really think they know this
it's my life
my choice
my mistakes
and I'll wait forever
if that's what it takes
to see you
'cause I miss you
don't know how I'll get through
without you

you were in my life
it was my choice
my mistake

But I'll try for you
My apologies to you




Was having a thinking moment, this was the result. I didn't reread it..so the grammar/spelling might be terrible. It might not even make sense. But I can't read through tears.

Coffee cups clinks.
People sipping drinks.
Nestled in a chair, book in hand,
see a gesture, not so grand.
Company not arrived, wondering where it is.
Alone for now, is it better somehow?

Warmth

Rain.
Pitter pat, pitter pat.
Rain.
Through clouds, through streets, through clothes and gaps.
Rain.
Splish splash, spash splish.
Rain.
Rubber boots, puddles, every child's wish.
Rain.


I adore the rain, it makes me smile.

Surround

I was told I'd be given one word. Followed by a short time span to write my first thoughts upon viewing it. I click 'GO'. I see the word ; 'surround'. And this is what came to be :


Surrounded by people, lonely inside. Feeling empty while being fulfilled. Why? Who deserves that? Perhaps I do. Friends? Acquaintances? Or merely someone to pass the time? Truth needs to come out. Will it ever? Surrounded by people. Is it true? I wish I knew.
