Oh well, I get distracted every time I open my lap top. It's almost like a bad vice, I don't really like it. I'm trying to concentrate in two main things during all November till I go to Venezuela:
1st: Passing the TOEFL (English exam to get into college) and applying for New School, Reed College (Portland) and UW (Seattle).
2nd: Trying to write a novel in this crazy fun contest NaNoWrimo. First time I participate, but people seem to have fun and to get a lot of inspiration for their writings.
There are a lot of other things I want to do. I want to prepare my trip, to take a bunch more pictures to be prepared before Venezuela, getting better and better at short stories in Spanish, learning English better, exercise at Dan's place while watching Philosophy and Biology lectures
, enjoying my Boy as much as I can before I'm out for a month and figuring out what to do till we move to Portland (or Seattle). I also wanna learn guitar and piano, but motivation always goes down when I'm not around other motivated people, which is sad. That doesn't mean I won't try, though. I'm pretty sure too that Venezuela will make me explode of creativity again, and I'll get back wanting to write, play music, take more pictures, etc. etc.
I'm actually writing all of these things I want to do cause if I tell people I'll feel more pressure to actually do it. At least with the Nanowrimo contest I need some kind of exterior pressure to be 100% motivated and not giving up in the second week haha
Everybody interested in writing should try this contest, I don't even know what my novel is gonna be about, but it surely looks like a good and worth time
It's available in 5 languages I think, so no need to do it in English.
Hope everybody is well!

My new set was shot a few months ago in the summer by Lavonne....
I did not shoot "Jeliza Rose", it was my boy who photographed it. If the set gets bought I think his flickr will be linked to, and give him credit. I did the post processing though, I mean if there is sepia and grain in a set you can be sure I've been involved somehow.
Thank you for your positive feedback on it - it means very much to hear!
