“So many people are shut up tight inside themselves like boxes, yet they would open up, unfolding quite wonderfully, if only you were interested in them."
— Sylvia Plath

I chopped off my hair today. It looks the same, but still... it's all gone. And I miss it so much. I never knew I had so much hair.. This always happens. I ask for a change, I get it, & I'm disappointed in the end. I shall never be satisfied. If only I could spend the big bucks on those luscious lana waves. If only.. Now I shall spend the rest of my summer dawning a short pathetic pony tail until the day comes that my hair grows to a style worth unveiling.

Synonyms & Adjectives

After a meal of steamed dumplings and a small stroll around the market, we settled to watch 21 jumpstreet. So freaking ab wrenching hilarious. I especially enjoyed how amazingly accurate they portrayed present-day high school.

Asian tub baths> entertainment by face cloths you imagine to be a sinking boat.

Then after, discovered the whereabouts of special baseball gloves and a pitcher helmet. Attempted to a game of catch in the hallway before messing about a camera shoot and listening to fantastic new tunes on Aweditorium- a lovely invention on the infamous ipad.

Playing around with iso lighting

It was a simple time together, spending most it at home, but it was absolutely perfect. Suppressed laughter in the death of the night. It was the simple definition of happy young love. So disgustingly cheesy but so incredibly thankful to have.

Camera Obscured

Ever since I traded in the disgraceful kindlefire for my super duper compact system camera, I've been playing around with the idea of capturing the right moment with a fanciful touch (mostly involving either showing part of my face or none at all). To illustrate:

Graduation going by way too fast.

Staring off into the polluted hollywood haze of Universal Studios.

And again with the lack of facial revealings.

Well does thou-est get my drift? I don't exactly know the reason as to why I prefer taking my photos this way, maybe it's a self conscious problem - hating the bottom half of my face. But anyhow, I intend on making this camera obscured touch my trademark in future pictures to come. Tata

An Overture To The Commencement Of A Very Rigid Journey

If last night's weather forecasted pouring rain, it would have been extremely appropriate. It was a night of many catharses- my conclusion to a now completely surreal experience. It wasn't the best night of my life, but at the same time I felt so happily relieved. High school both started and ended in apprehension for what was to come and what I've left behind. I'm afraid I've left regrets and horrible experiences that have shaped my pessimism but after graduation, I feel as if I've gone through a rejuvenation where I can now be the person I've always hoped yet feared to be. All those evil thoughts of the past, all that sad negativity has been cleansed away in the many warm embraces I've given and probably would never give again. I'm surprised it was all such painless goodbyes. It still hasn't dawned on me that these are faces I may never see again. Maybe it's because I've always rushed my leavings and never truly understood the meaning of a goodbye, that it's meant to be cherished and bittersweet. I did feel a tinge of the teary fuzziness for a second, but after I was just extremely ecstatic and smiling idiotically at any other that was dressed in the same ridiculous cap and gown. I have so many plans and dreams, oh so many, & I plan on acting them out now instead of hopelessly dreaming like before. No more wasted opportunities no matter how difficult reality will be. I surely shall start anew, if the fates allow. We can always start anew. I must remember not to lose this sense of self I've just now found. Honestly, nobody really knows where they're supposed to go. But for now, it's time to go live.
