I started writing this an hour ago. Then I got distracted. Story of my life XD
GUESS WHAT.

THIS BLOG WILL BE 5 YEARS OLD.
HOORAY!!
MARKIMATION TIME! Brought to you by Linda Hoang :)
(Maybe I should sneak Markimations into all of my entries from now on lol)
I'm trying to see how long I can lock myself in my room today. It needs a cleanin' and I need a studyin' and to complete other various tasks. I'm 2/3 2/5 for exams so far. Next week, Mon, Tues and Wed. It's gonna be HELLA fun.
My EFP shoot nearly a month ago went pretty well. I wasn't too happy with the result so I'm not posting. Although it seemed to go over well with the class.
Here's a taste, featuring Piper and Tyler. This is an outtake so :P
