I have taken up and slowly learning photo manipulation. While I'm not going to update any more of my photography works, I'll post pieces that I'm working on, using stocks that I found on deviantART. After all, it'll be fair that those stock owners know how the pics are being used. Also, to ask for their permission and such. And since having to use my inactive account is the only way I could reach them to let them be aware...*looks around*

I might be active, I might be inactive. Can't exactly say for sure.

Good night. If you want to see any new pics, you are more than welcome to watch me on Flickr (endless_twilight)

I don't come here as much as I used to and while I'm thankful for those who watched me and enjoyed my work, it's really hard to seek any critique. Compliments are great, yes, but I don't feel like I'm getting anything out of staying here. And thank you to those who pointed out the many flaws in my works because I sure as hell am not perfect

I don't have any fancy equipment. All the models used are either friends, relatives, or myself.

Oh well.

As promised, if I decide to leave dA for good, I'll take everything down with me.

Some inspiring artists/photographers (in no particular order)

I hardly post anything on this journal. Oh well...since summer is here and a quarter of it already gone, I guess I'll list the accomplished ones and the ones that still need planning...hmm...

Accomplished:
+San Diego Trip (June 4-17). Along with the photo collaboration with Dette, whom explained that I was lucky I was related to her since I would end up paying her for the pictures. Heh...which is true in a way. She's currently a dancer, with the card and all. Keep a look out for it here or on my Flickr (though flickr would be a lot faster)

Planning/Working On:
+One other photoshoot for July. Volunteers welcome to message me. Please see my FAQ blog here for more details. And no, you're not getting paid as much as I'm not getting paid, sorry ^.^ However, I'll treat you to lunch as an alternative...provided that we're not going anywhere fancy and that what you want is reasonable.

+Getting a job. I had my reasons of leaving the last one...which I won't really bring up. But money issues suck, and the gas prices have spiraled upwards. Plus, my goal of saving for a Canon keeps going down, literally. So now, I have to save up for my tuition for fall first ($222, not including books). Yeah, it's one class because I found out I needed that class to get my associates. Blah

+Finish writing "Blindfold". Actually, it's about 65% done to be honest. You can find it on my FictionPress website (Link found on bottom). If I'm successful, I could start on the story notes for "The Midnight Game" in at least August or September.

+What the heck am I going to do for my 21st birthday in a few weeks. Seriously. I haven't really put much thought to it. Plus, nothing wrong with hitting clubs, except it's not always a top priority for me. Maybe Kriz can buy me some drinks to make up for the $35 he still owes me!! >.< !! Hmm...I guess go out and drive around with a few friends to North Shore. That is if the gas prices actually calmed to a reasonable level.

+Try to lose some weight despite the horrible humidity that's soon to hit. Actually, I dropped a pants size while I was in Cali and the pants that I dropped the size on is unusually loose. Meaning I could slip in and out of these jeans without worrying too much on the zipper and buttons.

+Learn one song on the guitar without relying on tabs so much. Thanks Jason for lending me your guitar.

+Save enough to get a Wii. Actually, Kriz and I made a somewhat pact on splitting the costs of getting one (I think it's about $250 or $295 at the moment) if it becomes available again because of the fact that we are tempted to kick each other's ass wholeheartedly on Super Smash Bros. Brawl. But for now, we have the old school N64 version.

+Attending my cousin's graduation party in August...I think. Oh well. Am I the only one in my age group that graduated in '05? Actually...yeah. This also explains why I seem to have grown up more with the guys instead of the girl cousins [who are either 4+ years older or a lot lot younger]. It's not a big deal once you reach 17 or 18 but when you're a kid, the thought of guy talks in a romanticizing way can be almost foreign.

Don't you just hate it when the people you're collaborating photoshoots just either ditch you or stand you up completely. Ugh! Would it be wrong to start a strike system that if those who want to do shoots with me suddenly don't get back to me regarding it [either phone or message], they won't be able to do so with me for an amount of time?

+Yes, we're not professionals.
+Yes, no one on each side is getting paid. Unless maybe for a a free lunch. The only thing I really charge for is if they want me to develop it at the store and/or buy frames.
+Yes, we're doing this for fun and the sake of getting together after god knows how long.

Because our schedules vary, it's more appreciative if they left me a message or called me, even at the last minute, to say they cannot make it due to conflict. But to just leave you out there completely. Ah! Don't freaking waste my time anymore! I don't understand why people do this, much less the people who don't mind if they were stood up.

I had been in a relationship with a guy who would do this to me most of the time. Except he made the plans and then completely just does not show up, even without a hint of a phone call. I'm freaking tired of dealing with people like this.

Lack of Communication: My biggest pet peeve.

At the very least, you could have called, messaged, anything to say you won't be able to do it. I'm not trying to be persistent when it comes to sending messages but when communication lacks, then it's really frustrating, especially for me. I took the time to message you with what could be going down. The thing you could do in return is message me on whether or not you're up for it. And if you decide not to do it anymore, then at least say something instead of being the ignoring type.



Most likely more looking forward to a shoot that I'll do (date to be determined) when I'm at California with my cousin. And by the way, I'm leaving at the 4th, not the 3rd. I was misinformed about the date. But at least I get to deal with a couple of chores as well as packing.

So excited of a photoshoot coming up this Friday as well as another when I get back.

Oh, and for my trip to San Diego (June 3-17).
