5 wonderful things.

Count your blessings. 

ONE.  

I have a sweet boyfriend who sends me coupons to places such as Bath and Body Works. (along with love letters)

Luckily for this girl, they came out with a new Paris collection and new fall fragrances to make my apartment smell amazing. 

TWO.

I'll be officially in my twenties in 32 days. 

& my Ellen Hopkins comes out with her new book 3 days before my birthday. 

Yeah yeah yeah. 

THREE.

My face has been so clear lately. Makes me feel good. 

P.S. I'm highly considering washing my face with oils, yes oils!

Sounds crazy but check this out. http://natsprat.blogspot.com/2012/03/pinspiration-copycat-week-5.html

FOUR.

I was on the verge of breaking down due to a school project.

We have to do an environment portrait on someone who is an influence on the community. 

I just moved here recently and know no one & the ones I do know were not able to model for me.

I went to a lady who owns an amazing bird shop and asked if I could photograph her tomorrow if at all possible. She didn't mind one bit. What a peach. I was far too excited. 

FIVE. 

I received a red ribbon (2nd place) at the Denver County Fair. It was even more awesome to see others passing by and admiring my work, it reminds me why I do what I do and do what I love.
