Christmas 5: Winner!

On the second day of Christmas my true love..
ate the third and fourth days for dinner!!


SORRRY this week has been so utterly absurd,
I am typing this up in-between teeth brushes and make-up application.
But it's not like 4 calling birds or 3 french hens were of any
sentimental value, anyway.
And the 2 turtle birds got hungry.

BUT..
*drum roll please*

On the fifth day of Christmas,
my true love picked for me..

The photography winner.
SHAZAM.

Ready?

OKAY!


Yay. Contact me for a date you're freee!
PS I started this at 10 AM..
it is now 4.

Alas, time to go cover the wedding cake with fondant.

Told you I was crazybusy.

Christmas 1: Giveaway

I wanted to do some cool, yet rather cliche, 12 days of Christmas post.

But I missed my mark, and it's already TWO TURTLE DOVES!

So, let's back-track just a bit.
Pretend it's December 13th.

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
A partridge in a pear tree.



Okay - my turn.
On the first day of Christmas Natalie is giving to you:
A photoshoot giveaway.

I've never done a blog giveaway before.
I've seen it done. Seems pretty cool.
Figured I'd jump on the caroling-cart and conform to the masses.
Rather Karl Marx of me.

Here's the deal:
Post to enter.
If you're a follower of my blog, that's two entries.
Post about it on YOUR blog..and yep. You guessed it: thrice is a charm. 3 entries.

**post one comment for each of the things - so the number-randomizer-majig can work its magic**

Winner will be picked on the 5th day of Christmas. RING RING RING RING RING.
(that's supposed to be 5 golden rings..*insert pity laugh here*)

So yeah. Winner gets a one-hour, all-inclusive, luxury, VIP treatment, prices paid session..with ME. Except the only true thing about the above statement was the part about "60 minutes" and "free".

So, blog world, don't let me down.

(Post 2 will come tonight..once I figure out what in the hoodlum I'm going to do for my friends: turtle dove uno and turtle dove dos)

Five Stars Down

Two classes left.

You know what this mean?!?!
..I don't really, either.
Except that I can forever expel the useless knowledge
I learned in the last 3.

Okay, we're playing a little game.
It's called good news/bad news.
I made it up. Just now. Because I am so creative.
We will start with good news;
since the glass is always half full, and all...

Good news:
In FIVE days it will ALL be over.

Bad news:
It starts again in January..just ten times worse.

Good news:
I am going to Paradise Bakery. For the second time in 2 days. First time: with Lauren. Second time: with Britney.

Bad news:
After that, I'm taking a final.

Good news:
After that, I can focus all my time and energy (that being very little) on the devil-of-a-class called statistics.

Bad news:
After that, I can focus all my time and energy (that being very little) on the devil-of-a-class called statistics.

Good news:
Christmas in 15 days!

Bad news:
I'm Jewish..
Haha just teasin'. I haven't done ANY shopping.

Good news:
I washed my hair and it smells mm mm goood.

Bad news:
I'm going to have to repeat the process in a couple days. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. Ironically, the story of my life - all pun intended.

Good news:
You could save up to 15% or more on car insurance by switching to Geico.

Rainy day aftermath is always something I love, as a photographer. However, this time it wasn't the lighting or atmosphere that inspired me to whip out the dandy cam-dam-era. It was, however, my five year-old sister's greaaat fashion sense.

She's gonna be a knock out.

You like?

Fang-face Cullen

Edward Cullen emails me.
No big deal.

But more importantly, so do all YOU :)
I like that way better than some stupid fictional
vamp-face.

Yep. Said it.

<3

Grudge

There are SO many things to look forward to!
However, I have a variety of obstacles to overcome before I reap the reward(s) of my excitement.

1)FINALS are slaying my brain into itsy bitsy spiders.
2) WORK is wonderful, but takes time away from my statistics book <--FAIL.
3) PHOTOGRAPHY is amazing; I couldn't ask for a better talent-in-the-rough. However, I have lots of stuff to do and little creativity right now.
4) WEDDING CAKES scare me. And I am building one for NEXT WEEK. Yes, building. Because it's intense.
5) LSAT studying has been put on hold due current schooltime obligations. -_-
5) Did I mention the semester is nearing an end and I have so much ish to do, but little desire to actually DO it?


Welp. There you have it.
Sorry if my blogposts are uber lame these next few days.

However, I shall be revamping this page very soon. As soon as I have time. Or as soon as I decide HTML is another way to put off homework..

Sprinkles

It's DECEMBER how CRAZY is that?!?!?!?

Pure crazy. Times the factorial of {2,3,4,5...}

PS the photographed piece of heaven would certainly be my red velvet cupcake from Sprinkles, meant to be indulged by miss Busy Bee and myself..but apparently work was too important -_-

JK love you.

Turkey Face

Thanksgiving week
was wonderful.
I was kind of sickly.
But had some amazing distractions that made it all better :)


I'll be up-and-blogging later.

I will now commence

Mission:Finals

fml.

PS this will be bombarded with photos in the near future. I have so many shoot coming up :] And still tons to edit from the last few.

Tis' the season, eh eh?

Johnston Family

Family Picture Previews:
We shot some pictures last weekend.
I have had ZERO time this week, so I have gotten
the uploaded and looked at liiiike..1/3 of them.
So I'll post the rest in a little.

Finals in a week.
I can almost taste the end of the semester.
Yess.

Gobble.

Thanksgiving is coming up.
And that means one thing
(aside from the fact that I will be suffocating my life in mashed potatoes in less than 16 hours):
SNOWBOARDING
is around the corner, folks.


---------------------------------
Some things I am grateful for:
[family]
{the gospel of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints}
-friends-
(education)
*anteaters*
"mousetraps"
[humor-har har har]
{sprinkles cupcakes} *cough*youshouldbringmeone
-alarm clocks-
(mashed potatoes. WITH gravy)
*remote controls* <--i don't watch tv. but when i do, there's NO way i'm getting up.
"college breaks"
[wide-ruled paper]
{ti-83 calculators <3}
-canon DSLR cameras. srsly, nikon--you suck-
(swing sets)
*chegg.com* <--best educational investment. ever.
"blackboard" <--because i never go to class.

{pilgrims} * see footnote a *

I love thanksgiving.

Footnotes:
a - Pilgrims were slave-traders. So I really don't even know why I'm thankful for them. Hmm. I change my mind. Please insert "Sacajawea" (sock-uh-jew-wee-uh) where "pilgrims" was. I'm too lazy. Please refer to my gratitude comment about "remote controls".

<3

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I have a few new photoshoots I'll post as soon as I can walk again (after my Thanksgiving foooooooood!!!!)
