Trying No Heat

I have been "going natural" for about a year now. Although I have not subjected my hair to chemicals and perms. I have been using a lot of heat on my hair. I know that this is not good for my hair! So since it was a long weekend, i decided to experiment and try bantu knots after I washed my hair. This was the result. I was pleased. I got the same look I get when I tight curl my hair with the flat iron. The process time was doubled what I'm normally used too but I can't complain. 

 

So the next day when I woke up the curls did not stay like I wanted them too. ): So in a panic I straightened my hair. I am definitely going to try this again and research ways to get them to stay for a couple days

On The Menu Tonight

Tonight I made my best dinner yet. I made Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken with Rice and Peppers and Honey Glazed Carrots. It came out amazing! Yumm!! Sorry for the low quality (took them on my phone.)

Foodtastic

I love food. I love food more than a lot of things. 90 percent of what I shoot will be food. Its a sickness, or a great gift if you want to look at it glass half full :)

MMM Enjoy :)

For dinner last week (as you can see) I made Honey Lemon Shrimp various seasonings with a Onion Sliced Baked Potato and Broccoli with cheese. It came out soooo yumm and was so healthy for me :)

Im becoming a regular ol chef in my old days!

Paining With Light

This semester I am taking my Photography Portfolio class and I chose to do a series on Painting With Light. Now I am still a bit up in the air about this because I'm afraid of running out of ideas and also i think im afraid to push myself to new highs. But that is also why i'm sticking with this theme because it will take my art to a whole new level. One that at the end of the semester I can look back on and be truly proud of. Anywho me and a few friends went to the beach the other day and here is what I got.

SundayFunday

Woke up this morning to the sun peaking through my half open shade telling me to get up and start my day. My soul felt at peace for meditation is doing a body and mind well. Made tea and oatmeal and enjoyed the newest episode of Grey's Anatomy. Decided I didn't wanna be a couch potato all day so I got showered and dressed and came to the lab. Now I am currently editing pictures and working on my website. Tonight I'm making Chili for dinner (: Im so excited!!!

What Not To Wear

Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas.....

Seeing that Christmas was a month ago that is not an appropriate way to greet the monstrosity of which is white and fluffy and falling from the sky. People complain about the snow ALL the time and usually i'm that sarcastic son of a bitch who says SUCK IT UP! you know where you live!

But I have classes tomorrow  and I normally like to look presentable and professional on class days. (Especially now that Im only taking Tues and Thur classes) Any who... The snow is just laughing in my wardrobes face. I'm stuck between a rock and a snowy place.

I MOVED!!

I finally got an apartment off campus! I live with two really cool girls and so far I am absolutely loving it! The apartment is designed in such an artsy fartsy way, from the classic to modern kitchen to the AMAZING victorian bathtub! The other day I cooked my first real dinner there.... I made cajun shrimp with greens and peppers. I made pasta to go with it. But i mistakenly bought angel hair pasta (which I dont like) and I overcooked it and threw it out! ):

There is this light in our kitchen that makes it perfect for taking picture of my food.
