Natalie.

Im a blogging freak, I know.. I blog too much about nothing but you know, I blog about what I want to share. Im bak on my BLOG MODE and what the heck! I do what I want. So Im going to blog about my little sister Natalie.


Natalie is so silly... She is hilarious it drives me crazy.
I remember we all use to be annoyed because she acted like every single one of us. Copying what we did, trying to be uber funky but you know what? Natalie is now her own type of FUNKY. She is super funky and I wouldn't change her at all. She has a little bit of Ash, a tad of April, sprinkles of me here and there, and some of Jeff. Of course she has cups of mommy. After all, she was born 2 months premature on Sept 22, sharing the same day as mother and her name too, Luz, meaning light. I know thats a significant name, she is a light unto the world.
I swear, ahaha, some stake speaker said "i swear" when giving a talk so i can too :P, Natalie is CRAZY but that just comes from the combo of the Mejias and Powell, there is nothing we can do due to our insanity, its inevitable.... I had a major scare yday, I mean I actually overreacted but I cant help it, I love my Nannies...(nat) She was sick and my mom told me she was taking her to the emergency room in Uvalde. Turned out not to be a big deal but she's my little sister and ever since she was a baby my mom always warned us about complications in Nats life. I just thought her feeling sick was related to her shunt, but she is fine. I just love Natalie so much. I mean her sense of style is whack, but sometimes I actually really like it. I love that she is who she is, and I encourage her to keep on keeping on. I want her to be happy, very spiritual and always remember she is a daughter of our Heavenly Father and He loves her. I don't want the world to tear up her dreams... She is absolutely wonderful.. She is my baby sister. And I love her texts and her silliness! I wish I could carry her in my pocket.
ps,
dont mess with her. she can be ferocious like you neva knew....

Natalie has picked up painting and I completely encourage her to continue. We are all artist and should just do what we can. You will always draw like a 5 yr old if you stopped drawing when you were five!!!

My Heart Is In Canada....

My heart belongs in Canada but unfortunately is stuck in stinkin freezing, snowing again, good ol' Rexburg! I miss my bestie Chelsea! She truly is my best friend, never have I had this kind of relationship before. I feel like a creepy old man though, Im 2 yrs older than her, hahaha.... But we just sync so well, shes my other half and i miss her... My heart is in Canada, so here I sit heartless, missing her and my heart as well.
I have Canadian airmiles so I will soon visit.

Hand Painting B&W

The top photo is digital, a preview of what my painting should look like. I really like hand painting! Its way fun!!

Lab

Long day at the photo lab working on photos from the photo shoot.

How Bizarre

Bizarre I say because only two days ago I was loving Rexburg and it's totally fab weather. Just some snow to make a few of us, or maybe all, miserable.

New Project.

This is my newest project, crocheting with 4 ply worsted weight yarn. I love the colors.

Blow My Mind

Colors.
I love the colors our Heavenly Father created. Color makes everything so much more AMAZING!! I am so grateful that God is an artist and that I have the capability of becoming an artist just as He is. I truly am considering color film photography. It's lovely. And colors blow my mind, LOVE IT!!

photo shoot!!

Today was B&W film photo shoot. You'll always find me doing my thing behind the camera.

Hoot!! HOOT!!

Here is a little something I made. It's suppose to be an owl...

going to soak up the sun

Today was a great day to soak up the sun, so I did.

Free Stuff!!

Nothing is more fantastic than free stuff!! I bought one drink and magically got 3 for the price of one!

Working It!

Cardio work out is a must in my daily schedule.

Sunshine

Sunshine on my skin makes me happy.

writing.

I have tons of notebooks.
I write words in my notebooks.

Saturday is the "get done day"

Just Fabulous

Shoes are fabulous.
A good shoe buy is even more fabulous.

Photo Journal Assignment

• The idea is to make a singular photograph every day for ten days (10 images) that is important to you.
• Avoid “going photographing”, but rather keep a camera with you as you “live your life” and treat it as a way to document your experiences.
• Still try to make these visual journal entries interesting though.
• You will pair the image with a sentence or two describing the image and/or the experience it documents.
• The images and sentence needs to be placed on your blog every day – no lumping images into your blog towards the end of the assignment. I will be checking and your grade will be based on this aspect of the assignment.
• This assignment will run from Friday, March 13 through Tuesday, March 24 by 8 pm. I will then choose some of your “best of” images to place on a PowerPoint. If you have not completed the assignment on time, you will not get full credit for the assignment.
• You’ll notice that there are two extra days in the assignment. Some of you aren’t comfortable photographing on Sunday and I respect your feelings. Therefore you may or may not photograph on Sundays, but you will have two “grace days”, which you can choose not to photograph for the duration of the assignment.

losing myself

seems like the more i try to be myself, the more i push myself away.
i don't get it, i just want to be Brooke and I feel so lost at times. I feel like I'm in a little heart shaped black box and there's absolutely no color on my walls and it drives me insane. I limit myself way too much, I'm losing myself. I need the sunshine, i need my huge red shades, I need my short shorts and a cute little 5 star gray notebook.


Oh what am I doing in Idaho!?! I'm learning what is ME.
