Hello peeps and pervs!

Came back from Toronto a couple of days ago, and it was all pretty cool. Had some time to visit the city and discover new places, sit back and relax, take the streetcar (I love streetcars, maybe it's just cause I don't have any in my city...) and meet cool new people.

First, I gotta say thanks to Luffy for making all this possible, because she allowed me to stay at her place for the week. Not only at her place, but in her bed! She was a good host, and I enjoyed all the long conversations that we had, and the places she made me visit.





I also had the pleasure of meeting with hopeful Sif, totally fell in love with her. I think she really deserves to be an SG, I really think she belongs in this community. She has a new set coming in MR pretty soon, and she's doing a good job, go give her some love!



I met up with hadd <insert photo here> at the Silver Snail's new location, and had a delicious nutellaccino at the little coffee place now part of the comic book shop. He was a very nice and easygoing guy, and if I lived around Toronto, I'd be totally making plans to meet again with him! Thanks for the nice evening.

And last but not least, got to visit SG Ale in her town, and had the pleasure of meeting her beautiful and kind family. She definitely looks like she's having a good time, living in a beautiful place, with people that she loves. Despite what she'd say about her capacities with the english language, she has such determination to learn it that I'm sure she'll be fluent in no time.





Finally, I had the pleasure to shoot with all the girls you saw there, and I know a lot of good stuff will be coming out of it. Very soon, I'll be able to send you guys some nice little sneak previews, to make the wait a little more bearable.

All in all, this trip consisted of nice weather, pleasant encounters and beautiful pictures. Not so bad, is it?

Until next time, enjoy the begginning of the summer.

YEES!! At last, school's out! AND, as some of you requested, I did indeed kick school's butt. In fact I kicked it so hard, it's probably gonna be sore for a week or two.

This year was very very long indeed, we're finally done with the repercussions of the huge tuition fees strike of last spring. Well, on the school calendar anyways.

SO now, let's say hello to the summer, to new opportunities, and soon enough, to the folks of Toronto, where I'll be spending a week mid-may (that's pretty soon!).

Any thoughts or wishes for the summer? I, myself, will wish you to spend some quality times with friends, family, lovers, and to have fun in a variety of activities, wether expensive or free.

Soooo as promised at some point, here I am.
Apparently, I didn't get back to all of you personally, but hey, I'm back now, right?
I would've come earlier, but I was too busy being totally awesome in school.

That's right! I'm back to school. And it seems all those years not in school taught me a great deal, because I'm doing better than ever, even though I've never been to university before. Must be all the great, enriching experiences I learned through "l'école de la vie" or something like that.

I think what helps is, I really found something that I love doing for once, that gives me a sense of purpose, AND can pretty much guarantee me a job. Couldn't be happier I found something like that. (Maybe if the fight for free tuition was won, but let's not get ahead of ourselves...)

What's great is, I manage to study in a field I love, earn enough money to live and have time for my studies, and still be able to practice photography. I still enjoy shooting a lot, and as time goes by, I realize that my favorite subject remains beautiful women! It still is the type of photography I do best. And I just love the sensation of making a girl feel beautiful. We always criticize our own bodies so much, it's nice to be able to appreciate it.

Well! That said, I hope I'll be able to come by a little more often. With school it isn't always easy, but I kinda miss this place. I'll try to stick around in the future. Enjoy the most boring month of the year folks!

Words.
I need a new blog. It'll come when I have a minute to spare.
In the meantime: Words.

Words to share with me? I'll share some with you.

So... I'm guessing it's time for an update. It's almost been year! I apologize for not being very present in the community lately. Not that it's the first time, but it's been worst than usual I admit. The worst part is, you probably still won't see me around much afterwards. Not for a while at least. Too many things happening at once.

You know, I remember when I broke up with my boyfriend one and half years ago, I wanted to have a girl for a roommate. Turns out that a year later, I was very often living with 3 guys in my apartment. Currently just two, but still... that is a very good way to describe my situation with women. It's almost like they flee my presence. I really do want to have women around, but it just doesn't happen by itself. I have one girlfriend I see pretty regularly, but that's because I almost made it a duty to make it happen. I don't know, I just find I get along with men a lot faster. We have more common interests. Anyways, that's not really news, it's always been that way.

Things are doing pretty good with my boyfriend. It's been a year now, already. And everything is doing great, a lot better than it once was. I even got my ex-boyfriend to have interested conversations with him, and God knows that's something. He's starting nursing school this fall. I'm very glad for him, cause he seems very into it. And I'm very proud of him, cause that's definitely something useful for his society. I value that a lot. He much inspired me in the last few months, and now...

I'm considering changing career fields. Not that I want to abandon photography altogether, but I more and more feel that photography by itself is not what I'm looking for. I want to do something more meaningful. I don't think we need one more person who just shoots fashion once in a while, especially in Montreal. What do I bring to my people doing that? I want to have something to do with politics. I've been very interested in the related fields of politics for a few years now, I get involved as much on a national scale as with my direct surroundings, and it brings me a lot. What's more, is that I get inspired by those subjects as I've never been before by other photography themes (sorry ladies... ). I'm not sure exactly what to do with this, there are many directions I could take. Definitely not going to be a politician, cause not only do I not have the personality to be on the front line, but I also have a past, for instance this site, that could very well be played against me, and I know that it would happen sooner or later. Maybe something more like writing. I really like to share my ideas with people. Well, not just my ideas. I like to share, period. And that's why photography can't be everything to me. Cause sharing pictures is something I really like to do, but you can't pay rent doing that. Not the way I see it.

Sorry for the serious, only text post. This is usually considered boring. Well, hey, I'm trying to inform you, not entertain you. Do what you will with this.

How have you guys been? Tell me something new about you.

Bon! What's up with you people? I was tired of seeing the bruised calf on my blog. But in reality I don't have a lot to say. Yup! I guess things can get pretty boring when they go well. I've got a decent job, enough money to clear my debts, a good roommate, some cool friends and a nice, sane boyfriend. I can't complain, at least not about personnal stuff. I usually complain about what I read in the newspapers though. Can't stop that.

In other news, I see my old buddy siera_erradia is back! I'm glad to see some old members from time to time... reminds me of why I stuck around here at first. Welcome him back. It's an order.

It's been a whil since I've actually sat down to listen to a good movie. Anyone has something interesting to suggest?

Keep life rollin'.

Life's weird.

I got fired last month because I stood up for my principles. I found 2 other jobs after a week and a half. So I even had the chance to make a choice. I'm really lucky. Also, after working for about two weeks there, I realize I should've worked in that field earlier. I make more money, work better shifts, sleep better, feel healthier. I've never been so glad to get fired in my life.

But around me, things aren't so good. A lot of my close friends are depressed, don't have jobs or hate their jobs. I heard of a lot of deaths. A guy in my coop shot himself. He was my age and had 2 very young kids. My closest friend was hospitalized this weekend, and is in very bad shape.

My roommate is moving this week, and I'm having a new/old roommate moving in. I got like, 4 projects of photography to finish, and I just can't seem to finish any of them. For now, the move will be taking my time. But my friend's health really worries me, and right now, I'm spending most of the time I can with him. I'll try working on my pictures, I really will. But don't be surprised if you don't see me around that much... I've got a lot on my mind. It seems that my plans are again getting reported...

But, as I usually say, life doesn't give a fuck about your plans.

Thank you guys for all your nice comments on my set! I'm not done going around answering emails yet. For those who haven't had the chance to see or comment, here it is:

narcissism


I have a new roommate, and all is going well! I know 5 days is a little early to really estimate if everything is for the best, but I am enjoying the experience at the moment. I have known him since elementary school, and it had been a while since we actually sat and talked, so we have a lot of catching up to do... and we have a lot of fun together.

I am not completely done healing, I mean, after all those years with my ex, there are a lot of hidden layers in my mind to get over. Sometimes I get surprisedly hurt over some details. But I can say I'm pretty much done with the hardest part (or so it seems).

Also, I'm slowly getting to work again, as a photographer. I have a little more time to think about it, and I am inspired, and refreshed. And open for new ideas.

Just a small teaser...



See ya real soon, kids!
