ali and i just had a really wonderful, relaxing weekend up at the summer house. friday on the way there we stopped for the shoot at bard college, which was such a sick place. i had to get up in the middle of a waterfall and try not to lose my balance, haha. there was a pool that's not used anymore so it had no water, and graffiti covered it. it was beautiful. saturday we went to this bridge by the house with cliffs under it and lots of graffiti as well, watched a few kids jump off the cliffs, saw one kid climb out with blood all over himself, yikes, and of course ali took some pictures of the graffiti. had a lot of fun on the jetski, some sketchy guys followed us around in a boat and then came to our dock and asked if we wanted to ride on their kneeboard (!!!), really weird. last night we went to steven's motel that he's been living at for his externship, "The Rondack," it was great, we met some really great people too. dropped by at a lake george party that was umm.. different. was outside all day today, the sun was so strong so i'm a bit burnt. ali learned how to kayak, one of my favorite things to do ever. i'm exhausted, going to pass out tonight, chill out tomorrow, and shoot with steve morton on tuesday! hawaii is on friday! 

today ali and i went to fahnestock for our shoot with stephen. it was fun but pretty hot outside making it hard to focus. and we did a lot of hiking to get to areas that were cool/different. we found a cave filled with bugs and roots, a rock for me to lay on for the flower series, a huge log of a fallen tree for ali to do her flower series on, a door with an overpass thing above it to sit/lay on/hang from/etc, a bridge, a waterfall with rocks in the middle of it to sit on, and some other cool things. now i just got home from the gym and i am so exhausted! time to pass out. tomorrow is my first free day in weeks. how exciting :):) i think i will pack for the weekend- ali and i are going up to my summerhouse. 

today's shoot went so well!! i really feel like the pictures will be good. we went to croton point park, all the way to this secluded little beach with rocks sticking out of the water and fallen trees and stuff. so tired. tomorrow is the shoot at fahnestock park with ali.. hopefully we won't have to do much hiking to get to the area. i love the little miss sunshine soundtrack. bye!

hellooo blog people,

i had a great weekend with my jilly girl up in medfield, mass. i drove through a horrible storm on friday to get there and surprised myself that i actually made it. and i got back a few hours today and hit the gym ASAP. i got to see Leigh, Bryan, Sam, Simone, Kate, Minho, and meet some new people. and get plastered which has been a while. tomorrow i am shooting with a guy from around here, and wednesday i am going to a shoot for a flower series (i get to model with poppies YAY) at fahnestock park (that's with ali). i got an offer to fly to california (all expenses paid) to model for a website that's gory and awesome. i might do it on a break sometime in either december or february. but once i go i have to go back once a month which may be hard. i met someone and think ive gotten into something i might regret in the future, we'll see where this goes. as they say "life is a roller coaster" and to be honest i'm not sure right now if i'm going up or down or maybe even backwards haha. i'm having fun though!!! i miss boston a littttle bit. friday me and ali are going upstate for the weekend. but it's mostly going to be work because we have a shoot in annandale on the way up, and one in albany on the way back. so that only leaves saturday to relax. it's okay though this work is fuuuun!

today was wonderful! i tagged along to ali's meeting with Steve Morton, because she wanted me to be there, not realizing that he assumed I was doing the body paint shoot, too. This guy is a mastermind, working in the business for 30 years in all aspects of it. He is internationally known, created the Ecstasy style series (!!!!), has work in galleries, sells his firework photos for a TON of money that i will not mention the amount, and has shot for Penthouse and the like. This guy KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING. If the body paint photos are good enough we will be put into a gallery in SoHo! he has so many ideas and i am so excited. and he's in white plains. and the coolest dude evvverrr. 

so, thursday is our japanese cosplay/glam plastic shoot in astoria, queens. so today we went to hot topic, and then to giggles, and bought the appropriate attire (5 inch black plasticy looking heels, red fishnet thigh-highs, red hair extensions, a black tank with a silver belt cutting across my ribcage). seriously stoked on that shoot. 

this week's dragging. 

MM is taking over my liiiife. so is ali adamo ;) the shoot with jeff was relaxed and comfortable, ali and i both had a great time and im pleased with how the photos came out. thursday is our shoot with alvaro, with wigs, fishnets, someone to do our makeup, and saran wrap. it's going to be crazy. i went to the gym twice today because i'm feeling huge. tonight there are too many choices, i don't know where to go. 

i'm developing this recent trust problem, it might even be because of some of the really sketchy, creepy im's i get from people off MM asking me questions so personal my mouth is dropped to the floor. in a way it feels like these people are out to hurt me and i personally do not see the difference between them (whoever is behind that computer) and the people i surround myself with daily. it's a horrible thing to say or think, but i place people that i know in the position behind that computer, asking me personal questions and tricking me, putting me down, saying things they've previously thought but never had the balls to say to me. i've blocked the screen names but somehow they keep coming around with new ones. it's getting out of hand. was it a terrible mistake to join MM in the first place? hope not, hope some things good can come from it. 

anyway, i'm planning an environmental shoot saturday in waltham, ma since i'll be in jill's area for the weekend. sunday i've got to get out of work which starts at 2, there's no way i'll make it back in time. plus i might leave jill's monday instead of sunday. not sure yet, depends if she has off work. friday is luke's show in norwood. jill lives in the most convenient town possible. i cannot wait to see her and leigh. i feel like i am missing a part of myself. 

i could ramble for hours but i think i'm done for now. 

biking fifteen miles can kill yahhhh. sister's graduation tonight. 

capitol records called me today to cover a B 52's show for them this saturday in bethel but i'm busy :/ would've been cool though. tonight we (me, jackie, luke, bryan, katie) went to dinner for jackie's birthday and we ended up reminiscing about st augustines for 2 and a half hours. it was so fun. i was laughing til tears. we did so much ridiculous shit. kinda miss it. tomorrow is the photo shoot with ali~im nervous but i think it'll be a good experience. still no job. life is more fun when you're poor anyway. oh well, hot topic will do for now and in the fall i'll try to find one in boston. or not, we'll see. 

did you know you can read h&m's magazine online? i just found this. but it takes a while to load if you try to magnify the pages.

I want them all!

i know it's bad karma to say you've gotten a job before you've actually gotten it... but i may work at an animal health center in briarcliff. i'm so dying to do it. i love animals so much. interview either tmrw or the next day. yay!

Ah a fresh new week to start. This one's probably going to fly. All I've got: Wednesday I am visiting Kennedy with Lisa & Riss. Then at night going to Fulgum's bar for Jackie's birthday. Thursday Ali and I are modeling in Mahopac all day. Other than that I'm just going to relax before work starts. 

The AC at the gym broke today~ I thought I was gonna pass out. And then my grandparents came for dinner because they leave to Norway for a cruise tomorrow. A lot of people's power went out because of the storm. I wish ours did. I like sitting in the dark reading with a candle? Weeird.

Today I woke up with Jackie on my floor, in the same clothes as last night because we had too much wine. I hit the gym because what else was I gonna do.. Still without a job..well kind of.. I'll explain. I wanted to sleep the whole day in my wonderful air conditioned room but resisted, and by the time I was back from the gym (which I saw Johnny Regan at againn) it was already like 3. I borrowed 6 foreign films from the library which are due back this Monday and I've only watched 2 of them so far. So today I watched Avenue Montaigne which I loved! Last night I saw The Squid and The Whale, borrowed from Ali.. also really a great movie. Nick & Olivia Paganelli's birthday party was tonight, so I went with Kelly because the Paganelli's are like family and even though Jill left for Iowa today I still wanted to go. After, I went to Larry's 'graduation party' even though it was the exact same as one of his regular parties, plus a keg. It was fun but Jackie and I didn't stay very long. I saw people I haven't seen in months.. Seco, Ava, etc. And now I am here. I am going to work at Hot Topic again this summer.. Brianne told me tonight that Bill is going to be working again too so at least I should still know most of the staff since so many people have left. That begins June 15- so I have free days until then. Tomorrow is Sunday~~time to relax.

Hm, so.. Welcome to my life?

Not that I post very often in my LiveJournal, but more of my entries there are set so just I can read them, like a diary.. so here I'm hoping to post every once in a while just because it's pretty impossible to keep in touch with everybody I'd like to keep in touch with. And I think it's easier because you don't need an account to post comments (I think?) Idk.. not familiar with it yet.
