It's all good, take a new road and never look back

I'm ecstatically excited for my future, well my sister's future and mine. Today we submitted her to Ford Models, Elite Model Management, Click Model Management and a few others. I have such a good feeling about all of this for her! Last night our friend Zach, my sister and I went to starbucks and talked for literally an hour about how Katie(sister) needs to be a model. She has an incredible jaw line, has perfect skin and teeth, is incredibly gorgeous, eats 2000+ calories a day and is TINY. Not fair, I know. But I say, who is born with all of these model-esque qualities and doesn't take advantage of it?! So today was dedicated to applications, picture taking and editing and new dieting plans for the future(next week we start our low-carb, run 5 days a week, eat lots of greens diet!). Like I said she is tiny, but as a model tiny isn't acceptable, bone thin is normal. I'll post a few of the pictures we took today. They're definitely nothing special, but I think they're exactly right for the modeling industry.





It amazes me how God laid this all out perfectly for us too. I want to go into fashion marketing and management and be a buyer for a big company, now Katie wants to be a model. We are moving to New York and that is the end of it. Lauren and I will own a boutique and attend all of the major fashion shows(including Milan and Paris) and Katie will walk in them. Mmmm...life is grand.

red, tan, white, black=my fall wardrobe

I have been SO busy lately. My feet fell off days ago. But I wouldn't have it any other way!

Givenchy's Fall 2010 RTW collection is so beautiful, chic, classy, elegant with a little pop. I love the way the red was incorporated. If only I could do that makeup and hair everyday. Maybe, if I figure out how to make it look that clean, I'll do a tutorial. *writing down on my list of things to do on my days off*








add red tights to the fall wardrobe list. have a wonderful weekend!

I'm goin in for the kill

These are some looks I love from Lookbook a few days ago. I just made an executive decision to make this post dedicated to pictures, mostly.




These are the pants I want(and am getting on Saturday when I work) from Gap. They have AWESOME jeans...just sayin'....

Okay...pictures AND videos..video. I just cannot get enough of these two. If you haven't seen (500) Days of Summer 1. YOU'REINSANE and 2. this will make 0 sense to you.



bahahah they're my favorite and so is this movie.

if opportunity doesn't knock, build a door

I'm indecisive as to whether or not I should make this post a cliche teenage girl post full of cheesy love and motivational quotes that keep appearing on my computer screen, or...I'm not sure I'd thought about another option. I think I just decided as I was typing that I needed one. Options are nice.

Well, how about a little of both.

I work tomorrow. I have an interview at another store on Monday, as the desperation for more hours continues. Life just keeps piling more and more things(situations, rather) on my plate. I feel as though I'm either going to crack or come out with a new shiny coating. Hopefully, the latter. I am starting to miss my independence from being at school. Although my parents have never been ones to set curfews, they would definitely rather not hear me stroll in at 3am. Random thought: prom is SO overrated. The dress, the money, the date, the dancing, the dinner, the pressure after the fact. To me, it was just not worth it. I loved dancing, with Lauren(we both literally ditched our dates and danced with each other(you'd have to understand our predicaments)), but I didn't think it was worth the hype, nor the light feeling my wallet began to experience. Rant, rant, rant, I know. I'll quit.





Goodnight! xoxox

uh-Merica

Tonight was definitely the best 4th of july thus far. Parks+fireworks+no guys.

Sometimes it takes times of crisis to realize who is really there for you. I don't know what I would do without my sister. This picture's for you Kate. Love you!

a gentleman is someone who can play the accordion, but doesn't

I am probably one of the most random(and sarcastic) people you'll ever meet.

I knew I wanted to post something tonight but was unsure of what exactly. This seemed mildly appropriate. Then again, when is Mr. Rogers on an elephant not?!

Stop trying to be someone else, to see someone for all they are and trying to imitate and somehow convince yourself it's your own. Stop picking out little bits of everyone else and viewing them as vastly greater than anything you'll ever amount to. Stop molding this perfect, unattainable, unnaturally flawless being and forcing yourself to reach for this immensely superior goal that you know you will never, and could never, reach. You are beautiful. He created you exactly how He wanted you. These "goals" are part of His plan, and they were meant for you one day to shatter as quickly as they entered your mind.

I am wonderful just the way I am.

You have qualities no one else possesses. Don't put on a show and try to be someone you're not or try to live up to some label. It's not worth it. After all, at your funeral would you rather see a crowd of acquaintances you tried so hard to impress that may not even show, or a room full of people who cared so deeply about you they're ecstatic to know you're safe and happy with Him, finally. Life's too short. But it can be so beautiful. :)
