I am constantly bothered by Christianity lately. Let me explain. I grew up in church and Christian schools. All of them left a very bad taste in my mouth. I dislike the word Christian because to me it means hate and bigotry. I'm not saying all Christians are that way I have met several who are not.... Read More
I am Christian but not religious is my claim and a very good one. Religion has convoluted Christianity and made it seem like a pillar of hate instead of a platform of Love and acceptance ...these are the values i concentrate on...Who wants to be in a religion where everything you do according some man....NOT god mind you condemns you to Hell...When I rediscovered my faith it was after i had to take religion out of the equation
I was raised in a Christian environment and I totally believe that forcing Christianity on a child is not what Jesus intended and the quickest way to get them to renounce Christ ...I think god is so expansive that he can communicate with you on many levels...I don't need church to have peace or salvation...church is really just for fellowship, not to sit through a condemnation episode...I am very comfortable with my beliefs and really think if more people actually understood Christianity and not the bullshit people add to it..that it would be better off
It's been about a week and still not really sleeping.Between the time change, my allergies and now just plain being too overtired sleep has been rather elusive. When I do manage to "sleep" its in that weird half dream half awake state and it's always a dream were I am running around or something so I feel even more tired.
What to do what to do. I have the itch to cut my hair again but not sure if it is just an impulse or something I really want to do. I always to want to let it grow long but whenever I do get annoyed with it and want to chop it. Mainly because I'm a wash and go kind of girl most of... Read More
I love getting back in touch with old friends. Especially friends with skills! I finally was able to get back in touch with the friend who does my tats. His phone number changed and we both stopped using myspace so we lost contact. I'm stoked because this means I will be able to get the tattoo I want sooner rather than later.
People need to come to my house more often. I actually get motivation to clean when I know people are coming over. I talked to my brother last night and asked him questions about the reactors in Japan. He was a nuclear engineer in the navy.It is nice to have better understanding of what is happening now. He wishes he could go and help but... Read More
*HUGS YOU TIGHTLY* Thanks sweetie. Really, thank you. As for Japan, I feel like crying---not because I'm supposed to go over there to finish up beauty school, but because I feel helpless. I LOVE Japan. I was bawling my eyes out. I hope things get better---and you KNOW they will, sweetie. <3 <3 <3
I deeply appreciate all the advice and tips you guys have given me in regards to my pics. It is so encouraging to see the feedback you guys have left me. As someone with no experience with slr cameras and photography or modeling so it all makes a big difference. I sit here and takes notes on the photography group and the comments you have... Read More
I've been glued to the news the past few days hoping for some good news.In all this I am reminded of just how good I have it. I may complain but my complaints are small and petty. My family and I are safe and have all we need. I see these families destroyed by the tsunami and my heart breaks for them.
I'm so glad you all liked the pictures I posted. I know what I did wrong. I had my shutter speed set pretty low to allow more light in but If i moved even alittle the image would get very blurred. I had some great shots that were just too blurry so they weren't usable at all. That and I had a high ISO to... Read More
I did my shoot last night but will not be submitting it for review. Too many images out of focus and the lighting was too off. Still I will be posting them in my albums for you all to check out anyways. I really need to get some free time to do a shoot during the day. Would make life wayyyy easier. I over think... Read More
I believe your posted ones are very good. One of the main issues for a submission is lighting and you used existing room lighting very well. The color balance is correctly set on your camera as well. Kudos on that! Your body and skin is lovely so you need to ensure your sharpness is precise on all your images. I especially like the one of your exposed navel, where the lighting is coming directly from the side and it creates a very good shadow result on your tummy, but I would have loved to see more of your areola on the left side of the image. Just a tiny bit more to balance the bodyscape. Your butt and hips are equally perfect so emphasize your body curves with a little more "sway" tilting movement, like the "S" curve pose. It will make your body more luscious (not that it isn't already!)
Keep it up as I have enjoyed these few you posted!!!
I woke up this morning and was stunned by what I saw. I've spent most of the morning in tears after hearing about the quake and tsunami in Japan. My prayers are with the nation of Japan.
it is a tragedy. i was on my lunch break at work when ti happened. all of our wishes and well beings go out to all that were there and the familes of all those
I just ran across the funiest and most interesting thing. Pubic hair dye. Comes in brown, blonde, black, blue, pink, and green. Call me crazy but thats something I would totally buy. Maybe next time I dye my hair blue I'll get some to match.
This week has been really good so far. My grandmother is staying with my Aunt a few towns away so... Read More
So I should Hopefully be shooting my set Friday evening. I'm nervous about lighting but I have some ideas that just might work. Either way there will be pictures. I''m very excited to shoot it regardless of what happens with it. I've been reading up on posts by the lovely Rigel and others about tips and ideas to have in mind before I shoot. The... Read More
I have a friend living in Japan who I'm still waiting to hear from...
