my week in instagram #39 + weekly roundup



my art history notes, which had a major lack of actual notes // Ansel Adams took mirror selfies too! // when I found out my piece made it into the student art show // a flag of a secret alliance made my by friends // the art room // modeling for watercolor painters // cutting my hair // the end result // getting pretty for the student art show

This week has been a big blur, actually. There have been moments of a lot of excitement, and then moments where I just want to sleep for the rest of my life. But all in all it was pretty good. Let's hope next week is even better!

my week in instagram #38 + weekly roundup



Long time no see! I've been really sick this past week, so I took a few days off to sleep, eat a lot of cold medicine, and now I'm finally feeling better and ready to go.

me during the beginnings of my illness // finished framing one of three pieces for the student art show (I find out on Monday if they make it in) // doing homework with Matt/him making me feel better // finally editing some self portraits // I finally found my novel! No more excuses for Lauren // laying outside in the Oregon sun with my roommate // eating breakfast outside // my awesome photo crew for my latest photography assignment // hanging out at the park/having a picnic with my friends

This week, I tried tomato soup and fruit juice for the first time. Being sick makes a person do crazy things, like ignore their pickiness for the sake of getting better. But seriously, I kind of want to branch out a little bit with my food choices. Tomato soup and fruit juice still taste super weird to me, but we'll take it in little steps.

Also this week, I was incredibly thankful for my friends. They are so willing to help me, be that through getting me food while I'm sick, or being my assistants for photoshoots. I really love them so much and I'll forever be grateful for them.

my week in instagram #33



my clean dorm room // taking pictures in the fog with Amy // my favorite spot on campus // developed my first roll of film! // had another fire in our dorm thanks to the boys // me, haaah // preview weekend with some awesome prospective students // traveling down Oregon roads // photo adventure with flickr people!

This has been yet another fantastic week. You can follow all of my adventures @impulsings !

Weekly roundup (an effort to maintain my new years resolutions):

1. novel: nope. still didn't write a page. I need to get better at doing this one.
2. photos: just came back from a day of shooting, so I'm well on my way.
3. diy project: finished two, now just have to put them up for you!
4. outfit photos: done!
5. college street style: nope, didn't do this one.
6. book: almost done with my first one.
7. sketch: worked on a cute photo this week.
8. money: saving up.

Other resolutions that included more vague ideas like getting my work out there and going to meetups were successful this week. I just came back from spending a day with my friend Heather, a previous flickr friend and now a real life friend (I'll have a post about it soon). Yay for meetups! And I just learned today that three of my photos made it into the Anchorage newspaper, which is definitely big for making people be aware that I'm around, and it was incredibly exciting to wake up to that news.

I hope your week is fantastic!

my week in instagram #32 + weekly roundup

And in an effort to actually follow through with new years resolutions, every week along with my instagram post, I'll do a bit of a weekly roundup so that you guys can track my progress with my resolutions and so that I can keep myself accountable.

1. I didn't write a page in my novel this week, but then again, I wrote about fifteen pages total for various classes and newspaper stuff, so at least I was writing.

2. I've got more than two photos under my belt for this month.

3. I thus far haven't done a diy project, but I have purchased/found the tools for three. It's all an effort of actually doing something, which I may or may not get to by the time this month ends.

4. Two outfit posts? Check!

5. I successfully took an outfit photo this week. :)

6. Haven't read in my book this week, but I still have a few more days before the end of the month.

7. If you count doodles as sketching, then yes. But I have been doing creative things in the arena of photo props, so yay.

8. Considering I spent no money this week, I'm good.

It's been a pretty successful week, even amongst all the stress. But now it's behind me and next week should be pretty relaxing.

Hope your week is good as well!
