-Viola, 12th Night
Well I have some amazing news to share with anyone who reads this. My (previously) nephew is undergoing sex reassignment surgery! I have to admit I was shocked slightly, but I think its great. Also he has chosen his female name. And its Katie! Which will take some getting used to.
Anyway I dont think I shall remember to update this by new year and if I do it will only be with inspiration for photos becuase I am so heavily backed up with uni work.
This year has just been great, and I am not talking about all the beautiful presents Santa Claus bought me. I have matured so much and grown do confident.
I have worked so hard got a great grade in my first year psychology at durham university. Also I have launched my own freelance photography business.
I think what would I want for next year, and I know compared to all those children in Africa I am so lucky but I feel its resolution time and I need to set myself some goals.
1. I need to stay on tract with the degree. I need a 2:1 at least to get into my masters course.
2. I want to become one of those photographers which is a step above the rest. My icon is Lara Jade or Zemotion. They have such elegant moving pictures that I could look at all day. I really want to work more surrealism, emotion and meanings behind my pictures. I hear lyrics in songs, read sotrylines in books and watch them on the TV. And I think I could make a picture out of that. But I need the time - this summer I have over four months free and they will be devoted to this. Also I am saving up money for a course one to one on photoshop.
3. This is going to sound so cliche, but I want to meet a boy (preferably a boy anyway), someone I can talk to, trust and accepts and loves me for who I am, and that can be hard sometimes. I'm not the easiest character to get along with. I want to travel with them, be excited with them but at the same time content. God I even want to eat cold roast Turkey sandwiches on Christmas Day in front of the fire with them. I have always believed in soulmates, in romance but that idea has completley dissolved recently. 3 long term couples who I thought would be together forever seem to have split up. I dont really know where all these insecurities about what my love life are from, whether it be my parents relationship, which has been rocky at its best, or just the way I see things.
All I know is I am gonna meet that person and stand by them through everything just like my mum has done with my dad. Who knows next year I might find someone but to be honest I dont think thats gonna happen while I am year in Durham which is why I plan to move to Brighton despite the price of a glass of wine being over double than what it is here.
Anyways heres some pictures from the shoot the other day
