don't be afraid, and dare to be different. Ignore the scrutiny of others, and follow your own trends. If you're having fun- true, genuine fun- it shouldn't matter what the scowling faces sitting in the corner think. Deep down, they're just wishing they had the courage to be as carefree and interesting as you, anyways.
I really enjoy music and photography. I have played viola for 12 years, and am a freelance veteran photojournalist for a local magazine called VOICES. Sometimes I rant... a lot. I mean well, though.

It would be really kind of you to follow and support my photography tumblr, Live Chromatic Photography <3 I would really love you forever! I am much more active (and interactive) on there, and it’s not as much of a jumbled mess as this tumblr was.
Thank you and I love you!

I got a fishy! His name is Effel, because he’s blue (and red) like the song I’m blue by effel 65. He’s my companion. He gets excited and comes over to see me when I go by his tank.
Oh geeze, you guys, can you say SUCCESS?
I do work on photography, a lot. And I got a moleskine and use it constantly for art.
I eat fast food only on special occasions, like when I go out to eat with my friends. Maybe once every 2 weeks, if that! (I used to eat it EVERY DAY).
I work at tanque verde ranch, I make 9$/hr normally and sometimes 12$/hr for special events. I have finished high school except my volunteer work. I am eligible for many scholarships. (I’m not moving to NY though!)
I now have my own one bedroom gorgeous apartment after 3 months of being homeless. I pay for my own cell phone and have food stamps. I am self sufficient. I wake myself up in the morning and put myself to bed at night. I am an independent being. I am a success.
From new york this summer :) I still like this picture! Morning walks and the treasures I found!
I bet people would like this picture of an Arizona sunrise from this summer a lot more if I put some helvetica text of some sappy quote from some indie song on here /: haha…
Such an epic night. And I am so proud of my photography. It was pitch black. I was able to properly expose so that in these pictures, we were able to see more than we actually could see in reality!
I want it so bad. But the question is… UV ink, or regular ink? I was so confident in getting my first tattoo because it is so small. I am very apprehensive to get a large back tattoo in visible ink. But an artist whose work I admire greatly and who even has a uv ink tattoo himself has suggested to me that it’s not worth it. Hm.
New York is a place I have ALWAYS identified with, especially when I move to Arizona from NY. Just me and my mom moved here, and I was so lonely. One of the only things that helped me define who I was and give me confidence and courage was telling people about NY. Without it, my character would have been lost. I am so grateful for this part of my life and self. It continues to follow me to this day. “Rena, you New Yorker!” to me it means being strong, confident, loud, manipulative (in a good way), and able to overcome anything. Powerful, like the many buildings. Manhattan is the most recognized part of new york, so I am getting the skyline from the Brooklyn bridge (I think, may change the perspective). My moms from Brooklyn. I am going to have the skyline form from a heart monitor pattern :) I’ll draw it up, scan it, and post soon :)

Shakespeare quote?
hm whatever it turns out to be… it will be invisible anyways ;)
This is a short list of new music I need. Actually, it’s not that I really even like these songs, I just have an obsession of having like every song on my iPod so if there’s an occasion where someone wants to hear it, I can be the valiant person who has it! (but… I do like most of these songs, as embarrassing as some of them may be.)
