the definition of cold...

So, this weekend i shot with 11 photographers over 3 days...not bad in my opinion. Most of the shoots were on Saturday located at the Yankee Air Museum in Grosse Ile, Michigan. Basically, the shoot was in a unheated air hanger which was in the simplest terms, freezing! On top of that, almost every photographer i worked with either wanted me to be nude or in skimpy lingerie, a.k.a. not a good time for BeeBs. Now a lot of the photos I have seen thus far turned out beautifully, but that does not take away from the fact i was practically naked in the freezing cold for about 9 hours. Needless to say, I don't think I will be doing that again any time soon...and anyone who complains to me about being cold for the next few weeks will be severely punished. :)

Anywho, yesterday was probably the most relaxed I will be for a while. I love Sunday's because a lot of my favorite shows are on; Dexter, Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, Venture Bros., and of course Metalacolypse. Also, I barely even left my bed yesterday till about 6 PM, and that was just lovely. Sadly that will not be the case for a while.

This week is the last of school before finals and I have A LOT of studying to do, mainly in Plants and Society (plant biology and genetics), as well as Astronomy. Thankfully, my psych exam is a take-home, Digital Art is a pizza party, and Scene Painting is a finally project on exam day we have to finish in the allotted time. I feel like I should be getting A's on all of my exam's but I'm just a big worrier with stuff of that nature.

As for the upcoming holidays...there are definite pros and cons. My boyfriend, dog, and I will all be driving out to North Carolina to spend Christmas at my older brother and his wife's house. My young brother, and sister along with her boyfriend will be joining as well. I adore my older brother and his wife, and even when I find myself angry at my younger brother, it does not last long; so I'm looking forward to seeing all of them. It is a whole different story with my sister. Very recently she said something to me that was simply unforgivable. And because she is so stubborn and self-righteous, she believes there is no reason to ever apologize to me. All of that creates problems on their own, then when you add the fact she is brining her pill-head boyfriend I detest that she met in rehab, all hell breaks loose. I of course will be wearing my smiling face for the most part while I am at my brother's but i feel the tension rising as the days grow near and I feel that drama will sadly incur. I am hoping for the best.

In the end though, I feel like there will be more good than bad to come out of the next few weeks so I shall keep smiling and appreciating life.

shoot me now

Alright, let's do a recap of the week...Wednesday night - car accident; Thursday - dealing with insurance people and getting a temporary vehicle; Friday - 9 hour long photoshoot in Wyandotte, MI; Saturday - sore all day from photoshoot and just annoyed; Sunday - 4 year anniversary of my mother's tragic death [never a good day], also had to get a shit-ton of homework done; Monday - classes, need i say more; Tuesday - take a quiz and rush to get my scene painting project done; finally today - STRESSED OUT and about to find out if they are going to register my car as a total loss. So basically, this last week has sucked horribly. The only positive thing was probably the photoshoot just because those seem to center me for some reason.

Okay, so the car accident. Wednesday night I was leaving my photographers and all hell broke loose. I was going to turn left onto Monroe street [meaning I had to cross 3 lanes of traffic], the lanes furthest from me were clear and there was only one car coming toward me from the left in the lane closest to me. The car had their right turn signal on so I foolishly assumed they were going to turn onto the street before me. I started pulling out but soon realized that the car kept going straight so I slammed on my breaks. Before I had a chance to put my car in reverse, the other vehicle hit my front end and caused as of Monday an estimated total damage of about $8,400 [i bought my car in August, it's a brand new 2009 Kia Rio 5]. Today I am supposed to get a call telling me whether or not my transmission was damaged, given all the other damages I don't know how it wouldn't be. If the transmission is damaged then it will be registered a 'total loss' and I will be getting a check for how much my car would have been worth right before the crash. If not, I'll have to pay my deductible and wait till the 12th for it to be fixed. Either way, I just want this all to be over with.

Sadly the thing with my mom, if you really want to know, you can just google my name and it will pop up. The point is that i miss her dearly and Oct. 25 is always a day of pain for me and my family.

For the most part I have been trying to use any form of distraction to forget about all of this craziness. The song I am leaving you with today is one that seems to always help me to find peace when I have fallen into sadness.

And that's that.
