Let's Get Ready to Look SOOOO GOOD!

So. My dear sister-in-law Marily has just informed me that an amazing photographer named Lloyd Zeffler is doing a mini photoshoot giveaway. He took pictures of my brother's family about a week before Marily had sweet little Owen, my fourth nephew. The pictures were totally adorable but that's 'cause that family is just so stinkin' adorable. But I did look further into other shoots he's done and I completely love his style and it's so perfect for my new style I'm going for. Not gonna lie--I imagined me rocking a photoshoot inspired by non other than K-pop. At that time, I was especially into 2NE1, who, if you've watched the music videos I put up in my last post, have a very funky style. So yeah, I thought something with crazy shades, colors, kicks, and a 90s-ish vibe would be fun. And now that I've got short hair, it can be even funkier. Shauna already did a mohawk-ish type thing with it for an 80s dance a while back and it was pretty wild. Pretty wild as in pretty awesome.

I love his style 'cause it's got a gritty, raw look to it but he also manages to locate the coolest places! A lot of the pictures have featured cool graffiti and abandoned tunnels and forgotten stairways and other such things. Even if I don't win this free giveaway, I still wanted to save up some money and order a photoshoot from him sometime in the future, when I still have my short hair. I haven't quite decided how long I want to keep it short...I really love it, but shortly after I got it cut, I was thinking I hadn't had actual long hair since...maybe 8th grade! So I'm tempted to grow it out, even though it'll take foreva. But don't worry, it won't be any time soon 'cause I still love my hair. Short hair is the trend now, actually, from what I've noticed. And although I got my hair first cut about three months ago, I still keep getting people commenting me on it left and right. Random people, too. It amuses me.

Well anyway, I don't really have much else to say. Y'see, Mark, Marily, and Courtney are really behind me, having a great time playing Boggle and waiting for me, but I had to rush to get this in before midnight. Although I don't entirely anticipate winning, it's worth a shot, right? ;D

WHY DO I LOVE MESA?

The people. I've heard Mesa has been declared the boringest city in the nation, or the biggest city no one has heard of. Although that may be true to out-of-staters because we have virtually no attractions--aside from some golf courses, I s'pose--I still manage to have so much fun here. It's all about finding the right people to be friends with, and thankfully Mesa is actually full of them! I would love to travel all over the world and live in different countries, but I will always return to Mesa--my home.

Hah, okay, that was a bit cheesy, but hey--it's true. ♥

Peace.
