Ok, so my good friend Alyssa and I had a little photoshoot thing.
I took a total of 20 pictures and these are just the ones I printed so far in class.
My favourite one is the first one, they aren't perfect, some too light and dark I need to work on em I just wanted to post them for whoever is even looking.
the paper was fogged so those spots should not be there, once i reprint it i might repost the good copy.

alrighty then... now that it is the new year, I feel as if I should be writing something to sum up my year but looking back, there isn't a lot to say. Other than the fact that it is currrently 11:41am, I just woke up about an hour ago, I feel like crap, need to eat breakfast and have a lot of work I am avoiding. (that is pretty much teh story of last year also...so from what I gather at this moment, this year is going to seem verrrryy familiar)
Although it wasn't all bad, that would be pretty much impossible. It had its ups and downs like anyone's but listing them here so no one will even read them would be a waste of time and a boring one at that.
I sound bitter and grumpy and that is because I am a little.lol But for now,I can't help that much.
I think I am going to go have a shower and watch Gilmore Girls for two hours then call Beth and get together with her because its been a while since I have seen my best friend.
Stay Classy.

I haven't updated this in ages (or what seems like ages).
Although I am fairly busy these days. I have been making lots and lots of T-Shirts and they just keep coming, but no complaints from me because well, I like doing it.
I got a job (finally)!! I start today. It was the weirdest thing how I got it too. At the beginning to mid- summer break, I had been applying and trying to get a job and I never received any calls so basically I got discouraged and gave up. Then I started the T-Shirt 'business' and that gave me something to do as well as a few bucks.
Then a few weeks ago I was at mapleview with my mom+grandma and i oh-so-casually picked up one of those sheets from customer service listing all the hiring stores. I didn't even really look at it, just shoved it in my purse and followed my mom into some store that sells china. I was just about to complain that I didn't want to go in there haha and this girl comes running towards us (as fast as someone in platform heels could run). Then she said "Hey are you looking for a job because I saw you pick up that sheet and we are hiring right over there at Esprit, if you have the time we can interview you like, now!" I mumbled and followed her with a silly smirk on my face.
She was right, there is a brand new Esprit store there and when she brought me in it was a huge, white, room filled with lawn chairs and boxes. Took me forever to fill out the App because it was unexpected and I was tired. Then they gave me 2 interviews and called a few days ago:)
I am so excited but also nervous as hell. The good thing is, the store doesn't have its grand opening until Thursday so Today and Wednesday I will probably be learning the ropes and stocking shelves or something.
So I guess sometimes you don't really find something until you stop trying to look for it, it just comes to you I suppose.
all that wants me to quote spaceghost.
"Why did I write all this? To prove a point, bob. A point which.....escapes me now."
hah
anyways, oh about the T-shirts. Because I can, I am going to add a little Advertisement in here.
I now have a website thanks to my trusty friend Jeff Strong and its snazzy, even if you don't order a shirt, come on, check it out:) its cheerful.
now onto the ad.(which I made, which explains its crappiness and yeah...)it's not too big so hopefully it won't screw up anyone's pages.
That links to my xmgfree.com page but if you don't want to click that link, or its not working its much easier to go to this site
it just has a gay splash page just click continue.
http://www.shirtsbyannie.tk
Yep. There is lots of fun things there:
-order
-gallery (this is cool to see if you just want to browse)
-faq in case
-and more, (all typical site things.)
Thanks for your time if anyone actually reads these things.
gosssh I need to read Harry Potter.
and do my laundry.
Bye Bye

Okay..so is it just me or do I only update this thing when i am pasting some stupid thing that is only amusing for like 2 seconds...??
So yes, that is partly what I am going to do ...right..about...here:
Anyways, uhh uhh, I have been making shirts lately, and its a lotta fun. *inserts advertisement(s)*
-Hand stencilled/painted
-can make any photo/image on a shirt for you and/or text and things of that nature
-choice of paint colour and shirt colours and sizes
- reasonable prices $15-$20 which is good considering the possibilities of logos, pictures, etc.
- come on....I couldn't find a summer job...gave out several apps. and no calls, therefore I made my own job. What could go wrong? haha
Yes sorry, but not sorry *hehee* If any of those who read this is interested, let me know, leave a comment here or email me at its_annie@hotmail.com
anyways, new topic, today jesssss is coming over..well in about 15 mins...so i don't have much time for a new topic..unless that IS my new topic... nah.
I made Jay a shirt last night..its my first three layer stencil..and I must say I am proud of myself with this one:) It's the number12lookslikeyou logo but I added a border and more penguins, because well, it needed it.
For those who know me well, my room is CLEAN!!! I swear, it is a scientific breakthrough...because by the looks of it before, it was not humanly possible to clean it..but it is. (long and non-sentence like sentence)
Yeah I think I am done.
You have a good summer you. *wink*

k ...right now...I am sitting here..trying to translate some stupid website for the bloc quebecois and mr farrauto is a lame-o..so I got sidetracked and downloaded their theme song..and its got to be..the worst song I have ever heard..and its all in french...and if you get the oppurtunity to hear it sometime, let that oppurtunity pass because its a waste of two minutes and twelve seconds you could have wasted doing something less stupid.
yes..new..updates eh..went to some gay banquet..and i need not describe it, because..well..the best part was the food..so Jay and I left early and watched tv instead.
umm..exams soon..not really looking forward to studying, but meh sooner the better.
I got my haircut and its dorky but its growing on me..bangs (eek!) and a trim..I have yet to style it myself so fingers crossed for that..
and I had steak tonight..it was really good..but i don't feel so good now. damnit.
went to a party last night, it was alright..never realized how amusing blowing up balloons inside other ballooons could really be...you should try it.. haha
I hate centipedes...and they seem to love me because I am always the one who finds them and makes my brother kill them...or jay in the other nights case..
they are just so ugly and creepy looking..*shudders*
kk...looks like this is the end of the long awaited ( but likely highly disappointing) updation of the Annie Journal.
Ooh I stencilled a t-shirt..and thats another new hobby under my belt YAY!

I haven't updated on here for a while, but there hasnt been tons to say.
School is a pain in the butt. I'm so glad it is March break now.
Mojo today was...mediocre. Some were good and amusing, but lots were just the same as always.
Wow..I suddenly have Nothing to say..
I ate some coffeeapple muffins today and they were heaven. Sounds like an odd combination but they are very tasty.
It makes me mad because the time leading up to it seems like forever, then it goes by like in no time.
I think I am out of things to say for now, because there is something in my eye and its pissing me off.
Have a good'n'long break everyone!!!

O.C.Mix 2-track 2-"Hello Sunshine"by Super Furry Animals |
] |
wooow.
its 8:33 and i have to pee really bad..just as i sit down to update this. so I will be back. okay.so 2 minutes later. Here I am!
My new years eve was boring...i sat at home with my mom..i watched the O.C. dvds for a while (<3<3<3) while my mom had a nap...(these pre-movie naps are necessary because no matter what the movie is...guarenteed, she will fall asleep). so then around 8 i woke her and we watched the Terminal. aww tom hanks is cool. that movies sad. I had already seen it at the theatre but it was a while ago so it was nice to see it again. for anyone who hasn't seen it, i suggest you do..but me saying that has no point because the only person who reads my journals anymore is Amanda! (6 brownie points for you amanda! <3..i read yours too hun).
oh..i baked banana bread the other day..its gone already haha. I miss it..it was tasty. anyway, back to New year's eve...ya...terminal then i went on the computer because i was bored. it was almost 11 ish..i got off at like 2 minutes to midnight...Jay called me at midnight ish then i called him back and talked until like 12:45. it was nice. we hadn't talked in a while. and i was almost falling asleep after a consecutive amount of late nights...but i think he was too its all good.
Yesterday i went to my cousin's for dinner. it was good. i was so stuffed after that. we glued pictures of half naked girls on a bristol board for some gay project i was helping her with. haha.. it was meh. then i went home.
Today my parents had some company over ..and they were supposed to come at 11 so my mom woke me up at 10..i was so tired...which is weird because im not usually tired at like 10...but anyway,, i was really groggy then they called and said they couldnt come on time because it was icy on the QEW so...they came at like 1:30..and after they called i wasnt gonna go back to bed...ugh. but im well awake now..so i dont care as much as i seemed to this morning.
Tomorrow =School...which = a crappy day... just when i start to feel better, i have to go back...before the break i was so sick and glad to be going on a break, but what i didnt know was that i had bronchitis and would continue to be sick for the next 7 days. yea. no fun for me. i feel good now. im finally done taking that crappy medicine..its stupid...some Biaxin...but it made me really nausiated. I guess it worked. anywho...i went shopping the other day with amandaaaa and...not much else has happened...so this is ending. Now.
Overandout.

okay...updation once again.
it's been a long time.
i'd say i have some sort of crazy reason for not updating this..but truly, I don't.
christmas holidays have been "fun" so far i guess...with family most of the time and i've really only had one day to sit and relax and do what i wanted to do. I don't want to go back to school yet...school means no time.
ok uh..new stuff eh?....i got my hair cut last thursday. nothing cool just a trim. Then Jay,Amanda,and Jess came over for some movies and junkfood. it was cool. I want to see wes and nat still though they couldn't come. i want to see the others too didn't mean to leave that out. I don't know when or where...but all this time off and I dont mean to sound selfish but i've seen my friends once. i made a purse/bag type thing today it was fun and..interesting i guess..amanda STILL has my patterns *evil glare* so i didn't use one but it turned out surprisingly good. ^_^ there is absolutely No one online right now which frankly, Sucks the big one. considering i actually feel like talking. my parents are entertaining downstairs i dont feel like going down there at the moment but i guess the way things are going here i will since it would be very antisocial to sit in my room and do nothing when i don't have to be cooped up in there.
I got lots of stuff i wanted for christmas so I am a happy camper. I got mostly cds,dvds and stuff..I got the O.C. season one ^_^ i love it. its extremely cool. and for those that don't like the show, too bad for you. lol. even if teen soap operas arent your thing, come on its got good jokes. lots of drama though..but i don't mind really. jesus its only like 7:45..it feels like 10...im pooped. I think I feel like going to go snag some more of that lemon merengue pie thats downstairs though. so looks like this is all for my updating today.
Happy new year everyone...even if it is just another day...no big deal to me. curling up with a movie and chinese food sounds good for bringing in the new year, don't you thing?
well. thats all for now.
stay alert stay safe!
over and out.

My chemical romance-cemetery drive |
] |
read this...a friend from deviant art has an interesting story...I requested to hear it from him....I find it so interesting.
Hi Annie...
I always give my time for a musician, umm... what i will do is give you the long version so you can see why my mind changed over the years....
Where to start my sad tale, to be honest it's not sad but more stressful, all i have ever wanted to do in life is perform & play music regardless of the instrument. After plotting away for years some friends & I created a Circus thrash jazz band called Vicious Hairy Mary, our fan base grew at an insane rate & the band picked up a record contract after 2 years of plotting away in the Australian live scene.
I think you should know before the band stuff happened i was a promoter or event & festival co-ordinator & a nation tour manager for interscope records in Australia which allowed me to work with some pretty famous people which i believe helped me to think slightly different than most people do.
so anyway, as mentioned before i was working on this festival called the big day out & one of the bands i was looking after was Faith No More, i had met them before & were good friends with most of the band & crew, so i was jamming with Mike Patton & Trever Dunn on guitar for a while & they were looking at me weirdly & mike asked would i be interested in joining Mr. Bungle which is a band i knew of but never really heard before, see the original guitarist ( Trey Spruce ) was complaining about touring & he had just a little multiple drug problem so they call me in to be the bands tour & recording guitarist even though Trey still wrote alot of the bands music.
Anyway after thinking about it for about 2 seconds I said something like fuck yeah or something was said & a month later i was a 16 year old teenager recording the Travolta album with Mr. Bungle.... It was nothing short of terrorfying, but exciting at the same time for me as there was so much riding on me!
So a 3 months later i had recorded the best work i had ever done & shortly after that i was playing my first show at The Whiskey bar in LA & then on my first international tour, that time in the band was great cause everything was so new & even though i had fans from the old band it was completely different doing this, anyway as tours go it was a great time for me & i really loved it.
But when i got home things started really getting crazy, my old friends had been turned into these Bungle groupies & everyone started treating me different which was hard for cause i had reallt good friend at the time, plus everything i did was marketed as a Bungle thing even though it had nothing to do with it, people started to want more from me than ever & i just couldn't give it.
The year if 16 / 17 was really hard on me for many reasons, apart from growing up, people like Kurt Cobain died who was a really close friend of mine for a few years by that time ( i spend 10 days with all of Nirvana & some close friend of the band from around the world about 3 weeks before he died, lets just say i don't believe for one second that Kurt killed himself ) & a few weeks after that i caught my girlfriend of 5 years cheating on me & cause i broke up with her for it she killed herself which is something that really fucked me up, it is something i still blame myself for & always will.
The next album ( Disco Volante ) was recorded after a few months off but this time the media almost everywhere were really messed up this time around, i was injured a few times from cameras, i seen alot of fans get hurt during shows which being a promoter angered me, interviews calling the band devil worshipers ( which is complete bullshit ) & some fucking music reporter from england started harrasing my family in Australia which also was really screwing with me, friends started getting pissed with me cause i wouldn't take them on tour or to music parties & that mixed with all the drugs, women & money was taking a serious toll on my life, but i must say the women thing i really did proudly resist, i hate sleeping around or one night stands, i so that wasn't too much of an issue but it is hard when your are 16/17 with all these girls offering themselves to you, but i'm glad i didn't become a music man whore, that shit is sacred in my eyes!
Anyway in 2000 Trey was really wanting to play with the band again & to be honest i had had enough, between all the inhouse fighting, crazy fans, the fucking media & my own life had become something along the lines of living zombie, so i unofficially retired from the band, went home & tried to get my life back together, detox myself & start over.
Don't get me wrong, i loved performing, i am still to this day very proud of the records i made & the performances i give, the band was always great to me, i made enough money to last 2 lifetimes & i made some life long friends in music but i felt like had lost my youth doing it & the personal toll on my life was massive which is the main part of it all i regret.
all in all i still love music, still work with bands like System of a down, Fantomas, Foo Fighters, Tool & Incubus plus i'm really close friends with Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails & we do all types of shit together but most people in music & film just anger me with all their bullshit, it makes me fucking sick to watch where music is at this time around the world, i mean bands like Linkin Park don't even write music, they just perform it & look like dickheads at the same time, i'm almost glad i'm not performing at the moment, i just can't understand a world that thinks people like Paris Hilton, Hally Berry & Lindsey Logan are great people or are any more important than a farmer or parent is, thats just wrong!
Anyway i know the road has been long but there it is mostly, there are other events but due to professional respect i have left them out.
As for yourself just remember, music is beautiful & to be able to perfom it is a gift, never let music get to a point where money starts to become the only reason you do it, love it & it will love you back, thats how i feel anyway!
if you have anyother questions or you just want to chat please do so & i hope you got what you were looking for, there's alot there.... Fraggle

Wow..they even changed some stuff on this site...I haven't updated in ages!
School is....well, blah. (that's a given}...I am pretty busy being in 3 bands and choir and field hockey. I hardly have free time. It's pretty crappy. Yesterday was picture day...*rolls eyes*...yea I forgot and Jess called me at 20 to 8 and told me and I had just planned on going to school looking like I did when i woke up..but I took the extra time.
I went to a dance last night..it was fun i suppose. I had more fun just being with my friends, rather than the actual dance/music part of it. Jeez, little kids are so annoying and mouthy these days..and I swear...*i feel like 80 saying kids these days..but its true* Crazy midgets and their rebellious shenanigans.
As for my plans for this glorious weekend... Zilch.
(Zilch meaning...well stuff, but nothing extremely fascinating...except sewing with amanda..that is always an adventure.) I was supposed to go to some BBQ for field hockey but I can't and...to be honest, no one else is going and I didn't feel up to it.
I have this current addiction to eating ritzbitz. I ate like 3 packages in the past hour. Crazy.
OOO! My cousin Kim leant me this book called "Tell it to Naomi" and its so good I got up at 8 today and read it til like 11 haha its pretty funny, its like a journal type thing...I would explain it, but that would ruin the story. It is really short but I want to read it and I am about half way through. (this is exciting because I haven't read a book in a while *claps*)
I have math homework and I really don't feel like doing it but I kind of don't have a choice.. I am already behind cuz I missed a day and my mom was like "well, if you want to get your room finished EVER you have to do your homework" Honestly, what kind of an order is that..lol
Well, that is pretty much all for now. I will leave you with a quote from my favourite actor (second to Johnny depp Obvi.)

AAAAggghhhh! School in 7 days!
Amanda, you were right when you said "I think if you haven't seen them the whole summer then they must not be that important to you. "
Very wise words there.
Kind of..I'm just bored.
I have nothing for school yet.....Nothing except Jedi mind tricks!
I'm supposed to go shopping in Buffalo on Saturday and sorry Amanda, I was just informed we are leaving earlier than 11, but you can come next time deary.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
Today, I spent most of the day cleaning which is obviously fun and a half. Although, my room was in serious need of a thorough cleanin'. I spent an hour measuring everything in my room and thinking of cool new ways I could re-arrange stuff..but I haven't done it yet...we'll see in due course.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
As for the rest of the week, my plans are bogus...I have no intention of doing anything strenuous because I am a lazy son of a beach.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
Damnit, I started this with more ideas..but now i've got nothing...Nothing but Jedi mind tr-...I wont go there.
