christmas of the new decade.

That was Christmas. My tree. Nice ornament eh?
This is now. I do not much like now. I have spent approximately 126 months sitting in a building learning about things, which 90% of the time I have 0% interest in. I know everyone goes through the "school years". But, seriously has anyone ever thoroughly enjoyed it? Dumb question. Of course those students who gobble up every sentence the teacher lets fall from his/her mouth would say they thoroughly enjoyed it. Well, that is not me. Not in the least.
Honestly, I just want to work. Yeah work. It is only because I have never had a steady career, never had to work a 9-5, 5 days of the week, way too many weeks out of the year. However! My optimist self is coming through...just wait...yeah here she comes. And here comes her thoughts:
I basically want to be the female version of Scott Schuman.
I want to be a photojournalist/journalist.
I want to take endless, gorgeous, sustaining, brilliant photos.
I want girls from age 14 (an appropriate age to start thinking about fashion) to age 70 (and thats an appropriate age to stop thinking about fashion) to drool endlessly over my photos.
I want these girls, or boys [if they so choose] to wonder how I make these ordinary [albeit uniquely stylish] people look utterly epic.
oh. And I want to go from Milan, to London, to Rio de Janeiro, to NYC and never stop. Yes, I want to be unstoppable. Jet lag will not keep me down.

But...it's quite hard to be endlessly cool. I do believe people are born with it...like they receive a calling at birth to a higher level of understanding. An understanding of what is just breathtaking.
And you declare, "Oh please define 'cool' ".
And I retort, "Indeed I will."

COOL: (adj)
A much too often repeated word used to describe the instilled essence of "just knowing" how to be/act/dress/talk.

cool does not equal popular
cool does not equal wealthy
cool does not equal sexy
cool does not mean unhealthy addictions
and ect.

Basically, I want to be one of the coolest writers+photographers.
Yeah...I am shooting high. Probably too high.
But I think I have good aim.
