The dated, detailed doings of
Annie.

I am a creator. An artist. A realist. An optimist. A student. A daughter. An imaginer. A lover. I simply am. Biggest dream? To attend FIDM, major in design, work and study fashion as well as interior design in New York and California and make something of my life despite of where I came from. But for now, here is where I share little bits of my life, my interests, and my mission to accomplish my dreams. This blog are moments captured in time. Laughing, crying, walking, talking. Turning "ing" to "ed". Moments seized in time. Moments to look back on. To remember. Caught within the palm of my hands, held in my camera.

"She does mostly street-wear brands, but I feel her beauty is much more than that. "

"I am a senti(mental) - instru(mental). I am so to the point that. I find pleasure in mixing music with company. My desire is to soak you in song. I take bits of you, and sow it within the confines of something as multitudinous, as a song. The scent of you will stick to me; like that of alcohol, to skin. Or, cigarettes, to fingertips. Or, paint fumes to a renovated room. I want the weight of having thought of you too deeply. "

"If you don’t think you are very smart or funny or good looking or whatever then maybe just try to focus on the things that are great about you… like maybe you are good at remembering birthdays or important days, or you are gentle and kind with animals, or you are good at being patient with children or you have mastered the art of roasting marshmallows to perfection…. you don’t have to be Einstein or a top model to celebrate yourself"

"If the boy who draws

let’s you look over his shoulder. If the poet smiles and shows you her words. If the girl who sings for the shower only, hums a song in front of you. Know that you’re no longer a person but the air and dust that fills their lungs. When the world perishes, and all things cease to exist, you’ll remain inside an ink stain, a paint brush, a song."

"I didn't have the confidence I have now during my teenage years. I had all of these wild ideas that I spent a lot of time trying to convey and convince myself of. But over time you evolve and become really, really comfortable with who you are."

"I was homophobic. So God gave me three gay kids and told me to grow the hell up."

"Airports see more sincere kisses than wedding halls. The walls of hospitals have heard more prayers than the walls of churches."

Wabi-sabi (侘寂?) represents a comprehensive Japanese world view or aesthetic centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete".It is a concept derived from the Buddhist teaching of the three marks of existence (三法印 sanbōin?), specifically impermanence (無常 mujō?), the other two being suffering (苦 ku?) and emptiness or absence of self-nature (空 kū?).

"I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect - they are much more interesting."

"I really do believe that art changes the landscape of the world."

“I like people who have a sense of individuality. I love expression and anything awkward and imperfect, because that’s natural and that’s real.”
"هذا يجب تمرير للغاية."
"Your naked body should only belong to those who fall in love with your naked soul. "
"I prefer inspirational poems that teach you to live a better life over love poems. I have never liked poems or quotes that were based upon one pouting over the other person that deprived of they’re love or someone pouring out ones love for the other person. -life’s too short for that."
"I opened my rib cage and you didn’t catch a single butterfly that flew out."
" فإنه يحصل على نحو أفضل"
"i crave passion and intensity"
" Have you ever felt a potential love for someone? Like, you don’t actually love them and you know you don’t, but you know you could. You realize that you could easily fall in love with them. It’s almost like the bud of a flower, ready to blossom but it’s just not quite there yet. And you like them a lot, you really do. You think about them often, but you don’t love them. You could, though. You know you could. "
"He's got a soul as sweet as blood red jamAnd he shows me, he knows meEvery inch of my tar black soul"
"I am learning every day to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be to inspire me and not terrify me."
"The best kiss is the one that has been exchanged a thousand times between the eyes before it reaches the lips." "It’s okay to lose yourself for a little while. In books, in music, in art. Let yourself get lost."
"You deserve flowers on your doorstep and coffee in the morning. You deserve notes left on your dashboard and ice cream sundaes at 3 am. You deserve honesty every day and to be kissed every hour. You deserve to be reminded how beautiful you are"
"When I say be creative, I don’t mean that you should all go and become great painters and great poets. I simply mean let your life be a painting, let your life be a poem."
"Who sees the human face correctly: the photographer, the mirror, or the painter?"
"The sexiest thing in the entire world is being really smart; and being thoughtful and being generous. Everything else is crap. I promise you. It’s just crap that people try to sell to you to make you feel less. So don’t buy it."
"You can’t find true happiness if you live your life trying to please other people."
"Success is the best revenge"
"You're looking at yourself in the mirror and you don't realize what you look like because you're just a baby so you smile and wave at the baby smiling and waving back at you. You glance away for a second, look back but then you are already eight, staring at your ripped jeans and scraped knees but it's worth it because you because you proved to the boys you're not a sissy after you threw out your bubble gum lip gloss, pink bows, and told them you hated pink. And then you're fourteen and you're in the mirror putting on eyeliner because suddenly you are into makeup and the boys like those girls now, and you're saying, you're shouting "YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING MOM!" But she really did because now you're looking in the mirror on your wedding day but you're only half smiling because you wonder if you might not have had to go through with this if it wasn't for the kicking in your stomach. Before you know it, you're looking in the mirror again but you're wrinkled and tired-looking and the world is no longer at your feet yet you have nothing to show for yourself besides a daughter and next time you look you're looking in the mirror and you don't even know what you look like, you can't even recognize yourself so you look away.Yet you still know you can't avoid mirrors in a society as vain as ours."
"As you think, you travel, and as you love, you attract. You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you."
"what do you mean you can't hang out i showered for this i shaved for this i put a bra on for you. i got off tumblr for you i am wearing real pants I went outside i got out of bed i woke up"
