old picture of my big hair and big chest

me at Point Pinos, Monterey, CA
     as you can see, i used to hair soft hair. i have dyed my hair a lot which has taken that away. it looks longer with this style that i used to have but im sure the dying and the split ends has taken a lot of the length off.
     i look messy here because i was all sweaty and had been tide-pooling. and my pants were falling off.

     this picture was taken around christmas time. as you can see, i actually have a large chest. the thing is, recently, i havent been wearing bras as i am trying to embrace my natural body. i used to wear a lot of pushup bras but i don't know.... maybe il go back to that.

fairly old pictures

    recently, my father updated his gallery with some photos from his visit here (Boston) for my birthday. that was back in November. i still had red hair but it wasn't as nice because i was transitioning from green/rainbow. my skin wasn't as nice either. i was kinda a mess. anyways, it was great to spend time with my dad and his wife. we got to visit a lot of family around here that we otherwise would not have. it's funny, most of my family lives around here. even if they are divorced, still only live a few towns away.

     here are some photos from my father's visit:

left to right: my grandfather Peter(my father's father), my uncle Arman(my father's brother; recently adopted), my grandfather's wife Vicky (Cho-Ching)(my father's step-mother), me (my uncle's niece), my father Joel. my step mother Asayo(my father's wife) was taking the picture. it's a very strange family. only my grandfather, myself, and my father are related by blood, and my uncle is younger than me!

my father and i at Fanuel Hall in Boston

my father and i on a bridge near the aquarium in Boston

it's me on a beam! random hairclip, tunic from japan, Delia's coat, Wet Seal belt, Betsey Johnson bag, Urban Outfitters shopping bag, Forever21 skirt, mom's tights, Converse... this coat is way too big for me

this is a scary picture of me with a lobster and a scary man behind me.

me yelling through a horn in Salem

me and my step mother Asayo. im wearing a JouJou jacket, Wildfox shirt, Betsey Johnson necklace, random hairclip, Express cami, Old Navy pants, Walmart boots, my grandmother made my gloves.

     this was a fun time. there were a lot more pictures but i really only wanted to post pics of myself. now you know the confusion that is my father's side of the family.

bedroom

general bedroom

vanity

bed

lanterns

window and bedside table

desk and my blog on my laptop

jewelry

parfumes

vanity, desk, and table
     i figured i would post pictures of my room. this is the first installment of photos. i have posted my vanity, desk, bedside table, and bed. tomorrow i will probably get pictures of my closet and chest of drawers. that is the other side of the room and is kind of difficult to shot because of lighting.

     for me, my room is like a tiny museum, a small room stuffed with curiosities. i have a lot of modern things as well as vintage and cute items too. i love my bedroom. it is an exact reflection of myself; creepy, exotic, odd, diverse, and of course, vintage! i am always changing my room up but it's usually the same. mostly i change the decorations.

nomadic contribution

hehe look at my chubby knees
stinky face

trashy public restroom shot
     before i go into outfit details, im going to first apologize. im sorry im not a perfect blogger. but im a real blogger. i dont have someone who will take a whole memory card of pictures of me so i can make single outfit blogs with twenty different shots. i would love that, who wouldn't? but in my household, it's either find something to put the camera on, take it in a mirror, or mom will take one picture of you and one pic only. so, that's what i have to work with and that is what i use

     outfit details:    headscarf; Grandmother's, earring and necklace; handmade, beaded sweater; vintage Jordan Marsh but i got it at a flea market (tags on), shorts; Forever 21, shoes; Vans; Buffalo Exchange

human portraits

Middle-Eastern male

Caucasian female

Alien Subspecies
     these are actually all portraits of people i know. well, the last one is me of course. the female is my mom and the man is her boyfriend. i was impressed with how these came out and unlike most of my photography, did not require editing. the picture of me is edited.

mouth and liquid photography

my legs underwater

assorted dentures at the flea market
simple indoor pool for elderly citizens to enjoy

a typical adult beverage

seat yourself, poolside
     these are a few pictures that i have taken recently of a variety of things and places

attractive bathroom

sinks

toilets
     local Beverly, MA restaurant Acapulco's have great food, great staff, great salsa, and. great bathrooms. im sorry but every time i go in to the bathroom there it's just so good looking! marble sinks, silver faucets, bright lights, teal stalls. it's a good looking bathroom damn it!
     and a good looking bathroom calls for a trashy public restroom shot:

i dont know what the hell sort of face that is.... i suppose i was trying to make my chin really long?
