Back on YT?: APOLOGIES, APOLOGIES.


After another 6+ months, I have FINALLY filmed and posted a new YouTube video. Here's my apology (again) and explanation. I really loved making videos until it started feeling like a job and the pressure to constantly come up with good content made the whole thing less enjoyable for me. So I'm not going to make any promises when it comes to consistency. I'll post when I post.

I'm not sure what exactly I plan on doing with my channel besides vlogging. I like documenting my life whether it be through writing, blogging, pictures (like instagram), etc. I want to be able to look at old videos too.

Also -- I'm easily embarrassed. Watching some of my old videos was painful so I took most of them down for that reason. (+ I wanted a fresh start, + a lot of it wasn't very good content. ) I'm not sure if I'm embarrassed because I've grown and I don't feel like that same person anymore or simply because I feel like my whole existence is an apology/joke. (lol kidding...)? Whatever it is, I want to get over it sooo this is what I'm doing.

OOTD: Post July 4th Crybaby (7.8.14)

So serious. Lol. I sit on chairs weird.

The other day I went shopping and caught up with Kevin (@killahouston) over iced coffees (so typical). Oregon's been hitting the 90's lately. To combat the heat, I wore these blue denim high waisted mom shorts and paired it with a cropped muscle tee that simply skims over the upper region of your body. The graphic muscle tee features young Johnny Depp with a tear streaming down his cheek from the 1990's musical rom com "Crybaby." Alone, this outfit seemed too plain so I added a bold lip and a braided plaid bow which played into the color scheme of the whole fit. The bow unfortunately kept slipping off my head throughout the day so I eventually took it off. And I found out heat = sweat = bold lips w/o lipliner = bleeding lipstick. Bleeding lips = too high maintenance.  (Lipliner is so important!!!) I was going to see my boyfriend later on in the day anyway so I decided I might as well just take it off.

Although this looks very festival or July 4th appropriate, I didn't wear this over July 4th weekend. (I wasn't very festive at all actually.) I spent the weekend with my love. Celebrated the fourth with his family. (Independence day also marked our 6 months!)

Thanks bb!
