All walks of life

Hello everyone. 
I haven't blogged in what - 2 weeks?! I guess I just got so wrapped up in my life.. that's a good thing I suppose.  I've been so busy with school work, photo shoot, and my new job. A lot has been going on, but they are all good things. I found out that studying really pays off, alot.

It really pays off to work hard for things you want. You just have to keep trying and trying until you get it right. You can't give it up. If you want it enough, then you'll get it. I've put so much time into my studies lately - that I took a quiz today and breezed through it. It was such a relieving feeling, an accomplished feeling. I am proud of myself. It takes a lot to be truely proud of yourself.

Another thing I've learned lately.
You have to have a support group, you have to have friends from all odds. You have to spend time with people, keep in touch, and love every one of them. Your friends are your support group - and you have to have friends from all angles.I remember back in high school when you made sure the cool people were your only friends, no one different. In the grown up world, it's much different. I have friends now from all different walks of life, and honestly I couldn't be happier with the way that each of them are. It's nice to have different friends to help relax your stress in different subjects of your life, nice to have someone to lean on no matter where you are .  Their company is nice - why would you want all your friends to be the same? that's boring. I appreciate all of my friends. It's amazing in the most simple of ways isn't it? It's nice to appreciate things, big or small. I am excited to see all of my friends, and glad to say I have them in all situations.  It's not what you know - it's who you know - true isn't it? It is. Stop reading this and go call a friend; it may make their day - and it will definitely make yours.

I know, I should become a philosopher or something. I'm very into life and it's meanings and lessons. What kind of job should I have? hmm.

Have a good one ! :)

Don't Refuel the Fire.

Ever had someone leave your life - then one day they are back?
  someone who used to mean so much to you, someone who you could talk to about anything.
  someone who you still have countless memories with. 
  Months, Years later... they are back.

  What do you say to them? Small talk I guess. But small talk seems so pity full compared to what was. Bring up the past.... but which part? Will they go with it or not. The tension is definitely here.

   It's just something that I think stumps a lot of people. But really, I think people come in and out of your life for a reason.  They have lessons to teach you, and when they reappear in your life.. I think they are only there to remind you of the lesson you once learned. It's almost like this is your world, and everyone is just passing through it.  

But then; what if you DO hit it off with that person again - what if there is no tension? Well then maybe that one person isn't done with teaching you lessons. I don't know - i'm not god or anything of any kind of higher power. I am just a college girl.

I don't think apologies should ever be given for the past - its done with; Don't refuel the fire.

What happens next? Who dares to make the next move? & Don't forget - this isn't the same world it was when you were younger and you didn't have anything to lose. Now you do. :)

I know this blog isn't that great - I'm sick with 102 degree temperature so forgive me for not having my head thinking straight, I just wanted to mention this thought.

Dreading this.


This blog is not going to be inspirational - Not in the mood today. I just feel like blabbering. You guys ready for this?

I decided that running your own business is stressful when you are doing it alone. It is even more stressful when  it is your only source of income. Your ideas may get stumped on, but you gotta keep pushing. I've put so much work in this upcoming photo shoot that I am completely exhausted, yet it's still a month away ! I am mentally and emotionally exhausted, I think about it all day and all night; everyday.  I feel that I need an assistant - Maybe one day when I am big I will hire one full time. For now, it's partly part time. Walmart got big and life touch, I will too!  I've got a nice 3, possibly 4 big shoots coming up that I am pretty stoked about. It will get easier and easier  - I promise myself.  It's meeting new people that really can set things off - that is the wonderful and most difficult part. Anyway my personal big photo shoot is coming up on January 30th. I am going to do great, and I wont be alone - I'll have 3-4 assistants helping me. Exciting? yes indeed.  

For now - I am going to go make some flyer's to post up around the city. Dreading this part.  :)

One team, One sound.

ONE TEAM; ONE SOUND.

The power of a team is incredible. It's the daring gleam in each of their eyes, the determination in each team member's soul, the legend of their uniforms,  the fierceness in each sweat bullet, and the honor of each victory. A team is made of many but stand for one. Pushing each other to the limit, fighting for each other, backing each one up, being choreographed so perfectly to create an art, celebrating together. There is just something so serene about a team, so heart warming. The strength of an individual is so small when compared to the strength of many individuals. You are nothing without your team. You can not go through this world isolated and alone. You cannot bring victory alone, being you are only but one.  A team gives you a sense of well-being and belonging. A team brings you more pride than you can gain lonesomely. A team is bigger and better and more stronger and more fierce and much more determined than you could ever imagine becoming.     

 This is why I loved and longed for basketball. It was about being apart of something and being proud of something and knowing that you all have worked immensely for that victory. But one of the most favorable moments about being in a team for me was... laughing, cheering, being serious, aching, being disappointed, being nervous and anxious, being overwhelmed and excited, and being proud TOGETHER AS ONE. Sharing that road of emotions together. 

  I always have and probably always will long for being apart of our united states military. The military seems to me to be such an excursion filled with nothing more than teamwork. This is why I WILL JOIN THE MILITARY.. Even if for only one weekend a month. To be apart of something big. ONE TEAM, ONE SOUND.
