"You are beautiful" - that's what it says, in Swedish. I'd like to think that some teenage boy has been in a fight with his girlfriend and realised that what he did/said was wrong and this is his way of saying "I'm sorry".I'm standing in the doorway to an apartment building so this would be the first thing she sees as she leaves the building. Very romantic if that's what happened. But I'll never know...
Colours?...
And I want you to know I am both happy and sad and I am still trying to figure out how that could be.

The Apology Project, 2009
Maria Legault - Toronto, Canada
Performance Art
For Nuit Blanche 2009, The Apology Project will be staged in its largest scale thus far. A cluster of 55 people wearing large brown paper bags on their bodies will congest a public hallway and personally apologize to every person who ventures through them. The uncanniness of this human blockade will disrupt the regular flow of traffic and provoke reflection about passive aggressive behavior. Who are these people? Why are they here? Why are they wearing brown paper bags over their bodies? There is an enigma about what precisely they are sorry for and why they are choosing to continue doing something that they find reproachable. If it is their awkward presence in the space that they are apologizing for, why do they chose to remain there? Why not just stop an offensive behavior rather than continue to indulge in it and apologize?
In the context of Nuit Blanche, endurance will become a significant component of the work as these people will be standing in brown paper bags and apologizing for 12 hours. Time will become a device that at once tests the physical limits of the performers and also testifies to their will to be obnoxious and continue to maintain a disruptive posture even though they are physically exhausted.
there's no-one left in the world
that i can hold onto
there is really no-one left at all
there is only you
and if you leave me now
you leave all that we were
undone
there is really no-one left
you are the only one
and still the hardest part for you
to put your trust in me
i love you more than i can say
why won't you just believe?
I was sooo lazy today. woke up, edited photos, went back to bed, got sick, went to the mall, walked around, went home, edited more photos, went over to bobby and corys, hung out for a while, went to one of my favorite places, took pictures, went home edited them, posted them, went out to dinner, going to pick up pizza for the bonfire and I'll be there til about 10pm. :)

project 365: day 180 (two more days til half-way mark!)
Ok, seriously. No THIS is the funniest photo I've ever taken. In fact. That's it. I'm done. No more photos. It's impossible to shoot any better. Thank you and goodnight.
This is my sorry for 2010. I have been ignoring what got me through last year! I'm sorry flickr. I really need to start posting more. I haven't had the time though. Maybe I'll quit my job. . . ha. Dang it.

I had to paint the guest bedroom today, so I decided to make use of the blank canvas for a few minutes. I'm now covered in paint, but I got a few cool shots from today and i'm pretty satisfied.
No, not the rapper. And I guess it's really not swag, since only I got the model kit...
Anyway, I went to A-kon 23 with some friends. It was a lot of fun and really crowded. It was my first time being entirely on the public side of a convention.
Well, not entirely. I entered the A-kon branch of the Gunpla Builders World Cup with the U-Suit 47 (Gogg Master Grade).
I won Best of Show with it, much to my surprise! That means I'm qualified to compete against other US Semi-Finalists for the US representative spot at the international level!
I won the MG Earth Federation Forces Mobile Suit Gundam Age-1 Titus model kit as a prize. I was kind of flattered.
Then the Lord said to me, "Go and love your wife again, even though she commits adultery with another lover. This will illustrate that the Lord still loves Israel, even though the people have turned to other gods and love to worship them." - Hosea 3:1
From our TWLOHA Project. Here's the story. Our photos/interpretation to follow.
I'm sorry.
Your love is calling me back.
Your love is healing me, restoring my heart and soul and spirit.

Still Fighting It
One year ago today you changed our lives forever. You've brought so much joy and love into all our lives. You can't even begin to know. Happy birthday, Dude.
May I present-"Happy C-ehN-ehD-eh Day. That's how we spell Canada here in Canada. If you aren't Canadian, or haven't lived here, don't worry, you probably won't get this. lol And, may I say, officially, speaking for all Canadians, "I'm sorry." (Another inside joke.) Just ignore the peanuts. I was trying to entice squirrels or Blue Jays onto the shirt to show that even the tiny, woodland animals celebrate Canada Day. :-D

This particular photo, is meant to be a representation of this country called Canada. The cycling shirt represents the country as a whole. The soccer ball represents the 10 provinces, and, three territories. Unified, but, very different. The smaller, smilies, represent the "multi-cultural" experiment that is Canada of the late 20th, early 21st centuries.
Started doodling on my Wreck This Journal to kill some time today. Nothing better than a cup of coffee and an inky pen to draw. It was really relaxing. This drawing is pretty small and simple but to me it has a lot of meaning. I used the caption "breathe in, breathe out" because I had some problems with someone I truly love yesterday because of my impatience and my bad temper. Today I noticed that I have to be more careful with my attitude and the way I talk to people, seems like I'm pushing people I truly care about away. And I don't want that. So, I know the person I'm talking about won't be reading this, nor will he/she see this ever, but I really want to apologize for everything.

Sooo , long time no talk , fellow flickr users.
First off, and foremost, i need to say sorry.
I realize that i have not been on flickr for a good two months, but its just because my mind has just been blank. I don't know what to do with myself, and i decided it was time to come back .
Im sorry for failing my 365, and well .. for just being an awful contact. I promise i will regain my flickr addiction, and hopefully find some inspiration.
I'm really sad that i havn't been on flickr because i love all of you, and all of your pictures so much, and if you're tagged, i've missed you, and your photography just that much more.
You're all fantastic, i wish i could be half as good as you!
much love, maya <3 .
We've had an issue. I decided before we came to Mexico that I should change my birth control to something that would be easier than remembering the pill every day. So I talked to my OBGYN and I wound up going on the NuvaRing. Lovely concept (insert, three weeks later, take it out) and the same reliability and hormones as the pill I was on.
Bad, bad move.
I went crazy. And depressed. And mean. Not a good thing to be when on what we're considering our honeymoon with my brand new husband, brand new marriage, and brand new country. So he and I both suffered (and I do mean both...) until we could find the same birth control I was on before - or an equivalent, in this case. This actually took a while in Catholic Mexico, but a few days ago, we finally found it and life is just good now.
And I want to publicly thank Ty for being so patient and understanding... and also publicly apologize for the bad, bad version of me that came out.... :) I love you. Thank you.
P.S. Sorry that it's so dark. We've had some issues installing any kind of photo editing software on the new laptop, so most of our images as of the last week or so are generally straight out of the box.

This photo fascinates me for some strange reason. Although all it appears to be is just a mess/mass of arrows.
Been feeling unmotivated... rawr... though I guess that comes as no surprise... Though I'm collecting a couple rolls of developed film tomorrow. I always get excited when I am anticipating seeing my stuff come out.
"come out"
My vocabulary is shot, I can't think of a better word at the moment.

I'm sorry, this is awful. I took it with my cellphone, I didn't have my camera with me today, and I'm just trying to keep up on the uploadings.
I'm having a hard time today. It feels awful sometimes to be so mortal. For not being able to change how time goes so fast. Times like this when loss for what is already gone takes upon the heart and crushes it with its cold fingers.
Listen, I've been listening to this my whole day.
I had my first photo shoot in a lizard's age the other day. My friend Sara came over and we busted out the old 35mm and 8mm projectors, did some yoga poses, and clipped off a few frames.
Now, where's that creative momentum? I need some stick-um to grasp that slippery thing!

Seems like I've had to do a lot of travelling lately without Roy, which means he's been staying with a boarder. Not his favorite thing. And I'm always heartbroken leaving him.
Sorry, buddy. I promise more walks like this to make it up to you.
Happy Whippet Wednesday.

I don't think I'm going to share my opinion on the news that broke Sunday night. I'm going to wait to hear more details. If anything, I think everyone should read this article. It brings me great sadness that we live in a world like this.

Day Thirty-Seven: January 18th, 2007.
I received this apology note in the mail on Tuesday but I've been re-reading it all week long and really absorbing it today. It's from a person who has hurt me very deeply, someone I never expected to hear from again.
When I first caught a glance of it in my mailbox, I was devastated and furious at the same time. I thought that she was just trying to drive the knife in a little deeper or that she sent it simply to rid herself of her own guilty conscience.
This was the front of the note. The details of the apology I'll keep to myself. It was short and sweet and right to the point.
I had a feeling something like this was about to happen. Somehow I knew it was coming. I just didn't know how I'd react or what it'd do to me.
I have a lot of experience with apologizing. I have a lot of experience with forgiveness. Maybe I say I'm sorry too often to others. Maybe I accept apologies too easily. Maybe both of those are just flaws of my character. I don't know.
All I know is... after my initial reaction wore off, I felt myself emotionally drained. And I felt like I needed to accept the apology. Not for her sake. For mine. I needed to be able to forgive her in order to close the door on the past and move on.
It doesn't mean I'm not still terribly upset with her. It certainly doesn't alleviate any of the pain she caused me. I want to believe that it's genuine and that she really is sorry for the mistakes and the lies and the games she's played with my head.
I want to believe that because I want to still be able to believe in her a little bit. I want to be able to believe in the good things I saw in her, the things that made me fall in love in the first place. I want to believe that despite the extreme hurt she's caused me, that deep down some tiny part of her really does care about me.
I guess what it all comes down to is this.
I don't know how NOT to forgive someone who asks for it.
It's hard to take that step and ask for forgiveness. It requires an incredible amount of courage. And I respect that.
The apology doesn't change everything but it does help to slowly move past the hate that had been building up in my heart for the past month.
Things will never be the same between us. We'll never be as close as we once were. I don't think I'll ever fully be able to trust her. And I don't really know what kind of friendship, if any, can emerge from the emotional turmoil of the past year.
An apology is a good start though.
I... *sigh*. There are those of you out there who I would like to apologize to, and those people know who they are. Tonight, I talked to a friend who I hadn't heard from in months. After a few minutes of the small stuff, she explains that she's still hurt and confused about our friendship, because back in high school, we tried a long distance thing which didn't end up working out. It was definitely a surprise to hear this all to say the least. Then, I talked to another friend where we've had to work at our friendship for a while and that conversation didn't go over too well either.
I've messed up before in relationships in the past. Some of the harm was even made apparent to me until years after. I'm sorry.
Though we’re tethered to the story we must tell,
When I saw you, well, I knew we’d tell it well.
With a whisper, we will tame the vicious seas.
Like a feather bringing kingdoms to their knees.
I've never said this before, but please, view large and on black, it's so much better.
