fail week.

i'm kinda losing it over here.

photography decide to fail for me lately. i need to get out more. and just shoot.

just.

shoot.

get away from school for a bit, and everything that starts with the new school year. and just be somewhere in complete solitude.

because i can't seem to get away from this feeling of life being a fail of late.

because i wake up too late.

and my rooms a mess.

and im still doing algebra.

and theres barely ten days.

and i haven't taken a picture in a couple days.

and i can't seem to write much.

and all i can stand listening to lately are two songs.

and the way i sound right now is so dramatic, that it makes me a little sick.

and i feel like a fail.

like i need a run in this cold weather jsut to wake me up from this weird sleep that isn't sleep at all.

and all this wishing is kinda crazy, because i'm not doing much to accomplish it.

and i jsut used like 10,000 "ands"

oh, and i am listening to the same song for the 15th time today.

but this song is making me feel as if i've jsut been written out, raw and real.

gosh.

let's

just

shoot.

let's

just

run.

let's

just

play.

give me some freedom.

emo post. :P

the music was PHENOMINAL and the effects and the props and EVERYTHING. the singing, oh my, it was great. i hope get another chance to see it because it was breath taking.

and today in the news (part 2?)!!!!

so, if you saw these pictures on gracenblack, you're prolly wondering how i made em. (ps if you want to see more pics of lately, then you should go to gb. it is full of em :))

so ill explain, and ill update you one life around naomi-ville.

well, i kinda got the idea from my popular photography magazine, so i wont take ALL the credit. i jsut exectued it differently. cus lets face it. i dont have any lights. so i used an electronic lantern. it was pretty amazing. and my shower has frosted glass, so it jsut kinda clicked. and yeah, i had some fun with this.

annnd sorry for the lack-there-of of posting lately.

school started, so it's been knida crazy trying to keep up with it all.

oh! i totally just cleaned off like 2 gigs of stuff off my drive. which means i have 4.11 gb of free space! WHOO HOO. haha. anyone wanna buy me a portable/external hard drive for my birthday. it'd b nice if i could score a 500 gb one. but there liek 100 dollars. :P

my friend mary went to mexico on monday(im pretty sure) for a 1 year mission trip kind of thing. she's working at an orphanage. and we all miss her. like a lot.

so on the friday beforehand there was a great going away party! and it was a lot a lot of fun :) then i went and slept over mary's house with anne and bekah and carmel and we didnt get to sleep until about 4. the night consited of constant laughter, cookies and brownies, and chacha. haha. anyhow, we had to get up at like 6 for a prayer vigil.

yeah we were alot tired.

and i think im still recupperating.

and then that same saturday i had to play a soccer game. not a great idea. it was a fail.

we lost 3-1.

but the previous saturday, we won our game 1-0.

and so, that is whats what with me lately.

Mary, me, and Carmel :)

the best group shot i got :P it was more for the dumping of the water on everyone than for the picture ;)

Love,

Naomi!
