Well hello there pretty people! I feel like it's been a while since I've blogged with a real update. I do apologize. I've been going through a lot with school, work, traveling, and the other not so awesome parts of life. However, there also has been awesome parts too. :)
Where can I start?
Over the past month or two I'm going to be honest I've become a stoner, but a responsible motivated stoner. Oddly, I'm very excited about this. It has made me learn how to be more easy going and allowed me to form a grasp on my anxiety when sober. I haven't had a panic attack in a while which is great. I've also become a vegetarian recently so being stoned has allows me to really come up with some killer recipes for vegetarians and vegan. *Random side note: I LOVE cooking. I even wanted to go to culinary school in my middle school years.* So that's been really exciting, sort of discovering this and transitioning into a lifestyle that really works for me.
As a result of all this I've been feeling healthier, happier, and more motivated. It's been helping me through school and while I'm not getting straight A's like I used to, considering the situation I'm in, it's helping me a lot. I'm passing all my classes where as if I didn't have my me time with some good cooking and joints on the weekends, I probably would've dropped out a few weeks ago. My writing is being recognized by the dean of the English department from my school. Which is super exciting because I adore writing and am always eager to take on new tasks to write about. I might write for the fashion magazine at my school who knows.
Speaking of magazines. I got my first cover! Im on the cover of Gothesque magazine with my work with Jason Mcneil. It's pretty exciting. ^.^
I also wanted to mention something I've been doing in my spare time for a few months now and something that's been part of my life for the past few years. Parkour. Some people don't know what this is and some people think it's a joke. But once you're part of the community you see how incredible, life changing, and positive this activity is. Some people call it stunt work others call it free running. We identify as traceurs and my boyfriend Nick is the one who introduced it to me. Anyway, long story short I've been part of the community for a few years now as I said mostly as an observer, cinemetographer, and friend, but more recently I've decided to start the movement as well. Parkour has allowed us to travel all over the states and soon the world. It brings you to meet beautiful positive people who are so welcoming and multi talented. If you're interested in learning more I wont leave you with a definition of the word parkour or even tell you to google it. Instead to understand what Parkour is today to athletes like us watch this video.vvv

I was hoping to make this blog longer but it's Nick's birthday and we have to leave to drive to NY now. I will chat more later!
But before I go, don't forget my set "Compulsion" by Corwin Prescott is finally coming out tomorrow! How exciting :)
I hope everyone has a great weekend! Also a big congrats to my best pal @stormyent for finally going Pink! It's about time :) <3333
