Photo Diary: Rosa

Is it just me or has January felt like a lifetime. I'm ashamed of how little I've done this month. Its so easy to hide away in my room and watch the snow fall. I've decided that I want to take more pictures and create some sort of portfolio. I really love photography and I think I need something in my life that gives me some sort of satisfaction. The only resolution I have kept this month is my promise to start a notebook. I intend to start experimenting with collages, I think it would combine my love of pop culture and... glitter

I'm listening to a lot more acoustic music these days

Photo Diary: January Blues

Sorry for this boring life post but I've been feeling a bit disillusioned lately. I hate January. It's too cold to wear a dress and it's too dark to take pictures. I spend most of my time in my room reading, reflecting and listening to music. It's becoming quite boring. I have a feeling I'm going to be let go from my job soon (I work in a video store) I think this little comic strip from a zine I've been reading sums up my life at the video store. Just replace the word book with dvd...

This worst thing about not having a job any more (besides the money problems) is having to look for another job. Interviews are so humiliating :( I finally got around to applying to colleges. I applied to Edinburgh and Glasgow to study Computing with Web Development so fingers crossed...
I ordered a new camera yesterday! It's a Nikon D3100. I couldn't afford a more advanced camera but it's ten times better than my current camera so I'm happy. I can't wait to get it and take some pretty pictures :) I keep thinking of how I'm going to spend the next twelve months. I've got nothing planned and nothing to look forward to. So I took some action and bought two journals to help me be a bit more creative.

I'm thinking of using the pink hardback as a sort of inspiration diary with pictures and playlists and things like that. I love the second journal. It looks so gothic and witchy. I've started using it to keep a track of films I need to watch and books I need to read. I press flowers in between the pages sometimes too.

The first page of a notebook is always so difficult. I gave up trying to think of something artistic and just created a playlist appropriate to how I've been feeling recently...
