You.

Remember that you are beautiful because you are ONE of a kind.
Remember to go with your heart... are you just scared of what people will think? this feeling that's killing you every day because you wont follow it, it will stay with you until you find yourself and that could be a while... so i just encourage you to evaluate what your heart is saying and encouraging you to do...

Hey if you are out there and need encouragement. I really feel like looking up some words of encouragement... so here we go...

from the book FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS WHEREVER THEY LEAD YOU:

"Give people a chance to love you, for that is how you learn to love." ~M. Ososki

"Don't ever forget how to laugh, or be too proud to cry." ~ N. Sims

"Dreams are free, but they belong to the dreamer who will take a chance." ~D. Fargo

Does anyone still read this blog?
It's cool if no one does, sometimes typing out thoughts and stuff is nice... but if you do read this please in some form or fashion let me know what you think, or even just your favorite color. :)

please just do one thing for yourself, go through your life believing that you can do it. it'll be great, because you are you. and that's beautiful to the world.

ART SCHOOL IS FOR COOL KIDS.

I'm so excited to start class... as much as I sound like a nerd, I'm just stoked to meet new people and just start designing more and more. This first semester wont be easy, but life never really is... but I want to make the best of it and just love on everyone I meet. I'm super stoked about learning more and more about the Richmond area and once I get used to the area I hope to get involved in the city. YAY ART! YAY LOVE!

More to come later, it's my last day at the beach. :) and :(

The RAW Factor.

Hello.

So it's been a really long time since I've decided to post a bloggaroo!

While I was conversing with my friend Rachel about sturf she said something, and it was pretty blunt, but enjoyable. I told her she was "raw."

So I've decided lately to give things a number from 0-10 in the Raw Factor Zone.

Examples:

You smell. (now that's a raw factor of probably 8-10 b/c I mean that's pretty blunt.)

You wouldn't like this cheese. (probably a 3-5 because it's really not all that mean or blunt.)

You are awesome! (well... i don't know you give it a raw factor score)

haha this is all probs very confusing b/c we never know what's going on in people's minds. but usually we have a clear idea of what us, ourselves are thinking.

RAWFACTOR TOR TOR TOR!

hope you have a peaceful day. hehe
