I had previously written about plans for this upcoming year and resolutions only to be slammed in the face with the news that my long-time best friend passed away in his sleep. This is my life. Every two years or so, usually in groups of three, I lose the people I love. It always strikes a chord in my heart. This time, going through old photos from high school, with me being the only one alive still in them, something has to change. My heart aches knowing, that here I am, not honoring them by living my life to the fullest.
This year, I try to be healthier- mentally, and I try to be more driven- physically. I will not let down the ones who I have lost that I loved dearly. With each memory and each passing, I will honor them and do my best to make them proud.
I plan to continue the never-ending struggle of living my dreams in the art world doing what I love. But this year, I will approach it with more vigor. I will set forth new, small goals, that lead up to achieving even bigger things. I hope you all do the same.
So screw it, I'm redoing my SG Homework, @rambo @lyxzen @charmaine and @missy
I'll be 25 this year. I want to make it rock.
I'm gonna go to the SG shootfest in Mexico in April and I'm gonna shoot some killer sets. I'm gonna go pink, dangit (you can see my current set, "Sunshine Kitten" here)! I'm gonna get more publications because I refuse to accept that print is dying, I love magazines, I don't care what anyone says (RIP Bizarre). I'm going to shoot photos I'm proud of. I'm going to attend more expos (as always, you can find me at Anime Expo). I'm going to never take for granted the ones I love. I'm going to never take myself for granted. And although it may sound rather insignificant, lastly, I'm not going to forget to breathe.
"This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time."
