day 25/365.
There are astronauts on that sweatshirt I’m wearing. My mom bought it for me on ebay and gave it to me as an early christmas present. I love astronauts, and I love space. Stars and planets and all the things about the sky just fascinate me. I have glow in the dark stars on my ceiling, and I’ve had them since I moved into my house when I was three years old. I remember the night I got...

It’s interesting when you think about the things that you’ve been through in the outfits you wear. A lot of people may not think about that, but I do. With most of my outfits, I could probably tell you a story or two about them. The way I dress is very influential on the way that I act, and the the way that my days go. I dress a certain way to feel more confident some days, I dress a...

Oh, dinosaurs. We go way back. Back to prehistoric ages. Not really, but I thought it sounded cool. haha. Anyway, I’m holding a dinosaur eraser. I’ve always been fascinated by dinosaurs. I don’t know if they were real, but if they really were, they are so awesome. Some could’ve weighed up to 70-80 tons, and some were as small as a chicken. Some say they roamed our earth...

Sometimes I wanna just lose control.
day 22/365.
I always liked photos where the eyes are cut off. I like the abstraction to them, and the contradiction. Little overdone, I know, but I’ve always like it. I’ve been incorporating it more in my own photography lately as well.
day 21/365.
This is my favorite place to take photographs. My family’s farm. I love the two goats there, I love how rustic it is, and I love how run down everything is. It’s a very beautiful place, and I love spending my time there.
day 20/365.
I flippin’ love bubble wrap. The reason I have the bubble wrap today is most excellent as well. Today, I broke my second kit lens. The first one broke a few weeks ago, but I didn’t sweat it because I knew I had the one from my old camera. But, I asked for a new one just in case the one with the old camera wasn’t so good. And then today, the one for my old camera broke. And I...
day 19/365.
It’s been really stormy here in my hometown and I just find it beautiful. Driving at night is insane right now, you feel as if you’re driving into nothingness and that you can’t control the driving you’re doing. This on the other hand was taken this morning a few minutes before the rain started again. It’s been raining for pretty much two days straight and...
day 18/365.
The phrase on the necklace says “ewhere po hen the moment is just we ride the streets of de we take it slow and alway fause whare there’s smoke ere’s no denying we face the music and done.” I’m not sure what it’s supposed to mean, what it could be translated to in order to be legible, why the words or spelt wrong, or just anything about it. I bought it at a...
day 17/365.
This is my snowboard and I. Today was the first day of the season I was able to go snowboarding, and it was beautiful! My best friend Courtney and I went and it was just awesome. Felt great to be up there on the mountain again. Granted, I did get a very large headache and am super exhausted now, but it was still super nice to be up there again. Snowboarding is my second passion next to...
day 16/365.
I use my hair to cover myself up. You could point it at the aspect that I don’t like my forehead all that much because of acne, and I feel that it makes me look like a boy, or you could point at that I just don’t like to be noticed sometimes. Sometimes I just like to hide, and I use my hair and my glasses to do that. I feel that if I hide my face I won’t be as noticed, and I...
day 15/365.
Day by day I see the reflection of myself and the things I’m reaching for as somewhat foggy. The way I see myself is foggy, my goals are foggy, but as time goes by, my vision for these goals and my view of myself grows clearer. With each day that goes by, I see things in a new way and new perspective. I see myself in different ways, and I reach towards things for myself in a different...
day 14/365.
A couple days ago when I first came home for winter break, I tried my best to go into it with a good attitude. I’ve been enjoying Eugene so much that I just haven’t exactly wanted to come home, just because I’m happier there, it’s my new home. But I went into coming back to my “home home” with a pretty good attitude in hopes that I could handle it. It’s...
day 13/365.
Today, me and my friend Ponni set this up. It was all his idea, and I helped him take his picture for his 52 weeks project. So, since it was already set up, I altered it slightly and am using it for my day 13. The concept is basically that I got coal for Christmas, I was naughty, ya know the gist. I like concept photography like this, having it themed. It’s very interesting, and I really...
day 12/365.
The quote on the paper says “how I wonder who you are, twinkle, twinkle little star”. I drew this picture today in basic celebration of not having anymore school to worry about. I’m now going to be able to focus more on my drawing, as well as my photography. With college, I’ve been so busy with so many things that I just haven’t been able to really focus myself, and...
day 11/365.
It seems a lot colder in Oregon this year. Maybe it’s because I’m living in a new town, or all the californians that live here say it’s cold so I believe them, or maybe it’s actually THIS cold. Not sure. During this time of year in years past I wasn’t outside nearly as much as I am now. Now, I have to walk or bike to do everything, and so maybe I’m just being...
day 10/365.
Finals week! These 3 books and my laptop are what my life will consist of today and tomorrow. I have a J201 (mass media and society) final, as well as an ARH 359 (history of photography final. J201 is at 7:00 tomorrow night, and ARH359 is on wednesday morning at 8:00. And then I’m all finished with my first term of college. Crazy! I don’t even feel like I’ve been here all that...
day 9/365.
I bought this hat at goodwill last sunday for $1.99. I saw it and gasped in happiness because I thought it was just hilarious, and it reminds me of a lot of things. I just thought it was wonderful, so I bought it. I mean, come on, it’s a FROG hat. Who wouldn’t buy it? haha. Anyway, I feel this represents me in a number of ways. For one, it’s pretty silly and I’m pretty...
day 8/365.
I wake up to this subtle lighting on my blankets every morning. I see it and I think of how beautiful the light is, and how much I love natural light. I love the way this light comes through the blinds of my room every morning, and how that light reflects on the sheets I’m under. Most people wouldn’t see this as beautiful, or wake up and think about the lighting, but I certainly do....
day 7/365.
Today, I wore a hat that I made. I knit the hats using a ‘kniffty knitter’, which isn’t very legit, but whatever. I can make these hats in a couple hours, and I make them for myself as well as other people in my life. It’s similar to my view on my bracelets. I make them for the people that mean a lot to me, or at least have some significance to me. I like to see them wear...
day 6/365.
I love my ducks! Today is the civil war game, and I’m going tonight and am super excited! Didn’t have a lot of time to do the photo today, so sorry about the bad post, but better ones will be to come. But, this is pretty big for me because it’s my first UO game and I’m super excited! This should be a really, really good day.
day 5/365.
Moccasins have just always been my thing. I wear them all the time, practically everyday. They’ve brought me through so many steps in my life, and I have so many pairs of them. This pair is one of my newer pairs, and I have to keep wearing them to give them experience. I have other pairs that are ripped up, and some that are brand new, but they all have different stories to them, and...
day 4/365.
Bracelets have always been a very large part of me. I used to make a new one every time I had a new experience, and I used to make them for all the really important people in my life. I liked to think that if they had one, they would remember me, or think about me at least. It was my little thing to keep connections with people in my life. I loved making them for people, and I had many on for...
