I have a bunch of workshops coming up, and I have been swamped with work from all angles. I got pretty sick cuz I burned myself out with no sleep! I'm better now though :) I took a trip to Montreal last weekend which was really nice. I am feeling upbeat and positive, and I hope to keep it up!

I started a Pole Dancing class! So much fun! I'm gettin' so fit! My arms and legs feel stronger already. We also do Hula Hoop tricks. I bought an awesome hoop, and I can't wait for the good weather to use it in the park.

I'l post some photos from this weekend's shoot asap.

Have a great weekend everyone.

This winter has been an interesting one. It really tested my whits.

I accomplished some things that I meant to sooner, but hey, at least I did them.

I have had consistant modelling jobs for the past month or 2, and I am booking all the way into April right now.
I attended an event as a hostess for the first time, that was rather fun. I am represented by an agency called Alph Beta Pie.
A bunch of really smart, sexy and talented women. All of which are really sweet.

I have lots of workshops upcoming. Those are always a blast. I usually get to meet a ton if new, awesome and talented people at those, and end up with a slew of really great photos.

I just booked a trip to Vegas (yes, again) for my birthday! We are traveling with some really awesome friends, I am beyond excited.

I just started a dance/fitness class, and it is SO much fun. My body hasn't been this sore since my factory workin' days. Feels so good. Between the dance, modelling, my day job, and the freelance jobs that I have picked up, I am one busy girl. I try to find the time to clean my apartment haha. (luckily my girlfriend really loves cleaning, I find it odd, but hey, whatever she likes).

Tonight, however, I have a burger date! Then, off to watch the Lorax :D

Take care! :kiss:

I've been very busy lately, in both my modelling career and my "day" career.
I've had a paid event at least once a week since the beginning of February, and it looks like the trend will continue, at least until mid March. I've also had a few extra freelance jobs generated by my day job, which is nice.

I bought a new laptop, and I am going to sell my old MacBook Pro. Farewell old friend. You've been good to me.

I am planning a trip to vegas for my 27th Birthday in June with some of my awesome friends, and my girlfriend.

Things have been a little emotionally draining lately, but I am trying to keep on getting on.
I've also piled on some more hobbies that are strictly for ME. Not WORK or income. Just plain old fun.
Pole Dancing Fitness is one of those :) my first class yesterday got cancelled, but I have one on Wednesday and Friday.
Can't wait.

I have a few workshops coming up, so if you are a photographer in the Toronto area and would like information on signing up for any that I am involved with, let me know and I'll pass the info on to you.

:)

Hey all,

I have 3 new projects in the works.
I have a potential catalogue shoot coming up on monday. It's just dependant on them finding a male model at this point. That also involves a video portion, which I will be auditioning for.
I have a photographer party on the 11th, which will be an all day event, so I'm sure I will be exhausted.
I also have a large project in the works with some fellow models, that we are planning with my tattoo artist to showcase some new clothing designs she has upcoming. We will also be selling prints through her shop, which the proceeds from will be donated to the Toronto Humaine Society.
We are making a bunch of props and pieces for it. Should be pretty rad.

Apart from that, I am planning a get away with my girlfriend in march, and maybe a weekend trip in february, that I might surprise her with.

I also am trying to put the finishing touches on Motion Graphics demo reel, but I have been busy with other projects at work, that has had to take a back seat unfortunately. A friend of mine also might need some help on his projects, which I am looking quite forward to helping him with, if need be :)

Have a fantastic end of January!
I am rather enjoying this lack of snow.... I hope I didnt jinx it!

I don't know if it's the weather, or these vitamins I'm taking, but I feel unstoppably good.
I am very busy with hobbies and whatnot lately.

I have some upcoming projects that I'll post as soon as they're finished.

I hope everyone is having a fantastic winter.

I started meditation, and I'll soon be starting cbt possibly a group session.
I went to a seminar last night called what the fuck am i doing with my life, and it mostly just reaffirmed a lot of things i need to change, and right after that I went to a clinic and was there till 2 am. I just have to make some changes for my well being. One I think that will inevitable - sooner then later, have me moving out of the city. My soul can't handle it.

Vegas in 2 weeks!

Here's to wellness - Cheers.

:)
This year I am actually not dreading fall. Last year I nearly went to pieces - so much change, so much drama.

I'll be making a trio to Vegas, Possibly to Cuba again, and I'm already buying Christmas prezzys.
I'm making a little more money, and saving more then I was able to last year, which makes things a lot easier.
I have a lot more jobs in the work, which also helps :)

What are you looking forward to this fall?

There are a couple of things I have been thinking about lately.
One of them being - How you perceive yourself and the world directly around you VS How you perceive that others perceive you VS How other people actually perceive you.

I am fairly confident about myself and the person I have become. But I am Human.
I sometimes have an off day.
Today is one of those days.

I imagined looking at myself in the mirror, and then imagined what the world focuses on when they look at me.
I wonder How that would stack up to what they actually see?
Logically thinking, my view of myself today is rather low (and I am not talking only appearance based, I mean as a whole), I don't think that someone else would be seeing the same things I do.

That being said, do you measure your value based on the opinions of other people, and how they perceive you?

I have had a lot of random crap happen the past few weeks.
I wonder if it's time to make some major changes.
