Hannah S.








ahhh, the long awaited photos!! (so sorry, thanks for being patient)

so my friends, a while back for a final assignment (Betty Julian's Contemporary issues: ART TODAY!) I chose to focus on reality vs internet persona.
because of the topic i thought Hannah S. would be perfect because she is a charming young woman whom i had the pleasure of meeting for this photoshoot, but prior to meeting her i (much like many others) thought of her as an ultimate fashionista with all the right connections and all the right stuff who happens to go to all the best parties and events (someone we all long to be- an IT girl) we all just want to succeed right?

i wanted to see what shes like in real life- not just on the internet so i could compare the two.

well it turns out Hannah S. isn't just an fashion savvy, smooth talkin', cool gal whom we all aspire to be. turns out shes human too! she is quite inspiring to me because she is in an industry which i am rather interested in myself (not to mention her rad style- mad props yo) and because so far shes doing DAMN well in it!

so keep the good stuff coming and good luck in all your future endeavors !

N-EAT


it's cool to notice a change in people, but even cooler when straight out of nowhere you notice it in yourself and its such a "WHOA, BAM" moment.

above are two self portraits i've taken of myself. the top one was sometime during February 2009 and the bottom one is April 2010

but maybe the cool part isn't having two images of yourself to compare to one another. i think the really important difference between each is everything you have learned, felt, expressed, held in, shared, enjoyed, cried, loved and how many times it may have started to rain when you were bike riding.
what have you noticed has changed in your life? are they things you will never regret? are they memories you will cherish forever?
take a picture and think about it, i guess.

pretttttttty neat, i think!

earthhhh dayyy

was yesterday, hope you all enjoyed it!!
during my day i spent most of it studying outside in the sunshine for my final exam i had today (hurrrray summer AT LAST)

now on a more serious note, yesterday i learned something i didnt know about and thought "HOW did i not know about this? this is HUGE"
so i thought, if i didn't know...who else doesn't?because of this, i wanted to tell you lovely people (because i feel its important that you do know)

have you heard of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch?

(holy crap you can see it from space)

what is it you ask?

“Great Pacific Garbage Patch,” or “trash vortex” – essentially a floating expanse of waste and debris in the Pacific Ocean now covering an area twice the size of the continental U.S. Believed to hold almost 100m tons of flotsam, this vast “plastic soup” stretches 500 nautical miles off the Californian coast, past Hawaii and almost as far as Japan:






“The “soup” is actually two linked areas, either side of the islands of Hawaii, known as the Western and Eastern Pacific Garbage Patches. About one-fifth of the junk – which includes everything from footballs and kayaks to Lego blocks and carrier bags – is thrown off ships or oil platforms. The rest comes from land.”
