"EMO"

Im not or wasn't really emotional today, but i was looking at photos of makeup on google images and all these so called "emo pictures" came up. personally, i think the word EMO and stereotyping people as emo is completely wrong. if you think you could never be emo, your wrong. saying that, is saying, you've never been emotional in your life, since emo is just a shortened word for emotional. but anyway, whenever those pictures come up, they have the coolest composition! way cooler than any other regular photo. so today, i tried to do an "emo" shoot. i put some purple, black, and brown eyeshadow on around my eyes and some mascara. here are a few of my favorite from the day. i hope you like them!!!!

Mood Swings and EPL

i wish there were a way for me to express how i feel right now at this very moment. i have a wave of emotions coming and going in my direction. sadness, anxiousness, longing, disappointed...
first things first. i need to write what i'm feeling down or else i wont remember it in 5 minutes. my mind goes in loopty loops, from thought to thought, a hundred miles an hour and trust me, i wont remember. NOTE TO SELF: for every paycheck you get, take out 25% and put it in your "Travel" piggy bank your making tomorrow (5/12/2011) out of a gallon of soda/milk bottle. duck tape it around so you won't see how much money is actually going in there. in a year, you'll be surprised.
i know in my posts, i change from 1st person to the third person. sorry.

He now has probably more than a thousand pictures of us on his computer because i document the moment so much, and he never used to. well, not as much as i do.
He looks like his dad. thats a good thing :)

there's a lot more wonderful and interesting things about brandonburg (my nickname for him) and i'll write some more facts about him later. :)

When we first started dating, i wanted a to do a photoshoot with Brandon but i didn't really know how that would go over asking him, ya know. cause we had been dating for only a month or something and it can sound weird. But thats just me. i love taking pictures/videos to remember the moment. So we asked his sister that i had only met a few times...to take pictures of us! Jen was totally up for it :) I got so excited! people might have thought it was way too soon to take pictures of us "together" in that way, but i didn't care. I told Bee that we had to theme our shoot by wearing something different than our normal clothes. i came up with the "cowboy" theme. Bee wasn't up for it at first because he couldn't wear something that lame! :) I took him to Goodwill to pick out a shirt. I found some overalls there too and told him i'd wear these all day! just to rub it in his face ;) we went to Parker's hot dog shop after since it was located right next to Goodwill. We both got chili dogs if i remember correctly, but were gross!! thats where we took one of the FIRST pictures of us both together on his phone. weird to think about. a lot has happened since then. anyway, we went on the photoshoot with Jen and it was so much fun! It wasn't awkward like i thought it would be. She wanted to practice shooting so it was perfect. and wouldntchaknowit, her photos came out SO GOOD! i loved them all! I was so pleased! We went to his house afterwards and showed his mom and dad :D They were both laughing at how excited WE were. lame. haha really fun experience!!!! here are some more pictures from the shoot that i really like

:)

I am very lucky to have Brandonburg and i will write our adventures down when i have more time. I'm off!!!
