Met up with Yvonne yesterday and had a nice evening shooting pics. It was actually my first model shoot and it was personally a while new experience to have someone in front of your cam. Luckily she was a good sport and we had a great time. Will post some more later.
BTW, her hair is really that red!

I don't do resolutions for the New Year. I don't like to keep myself tied to a piece of paper because I know I'll evaluate my "worth" at the end of the year by whether or not I fulfilled all those things on the list, regardless of how much I did that wasn't on that stupid list.
So at the end of each year, I make lists of things I've learned instead. This year was particularly difficult for me and I know that I've missed at least a couple of the lessons I learned this year to the shadows of what I typed below. However, I can't and won't dwell on this stuff any longer. Here's the list for 2006. Please feel free to do your own. Hopefully yours isn't as dark as mine.
No paycheck is worth feeling like a worthless piece of crap. When your job makes you feel like you can't do anything right, it's time to leave.
And how. I realise now that I'm quite capable—much more so than my last job allowed me to believe. More so than this job even realises at this point. I'm worth more than a shitty job.
Beware the dreaded "Potential."
I'm finding a large portion of women are in on this with me. We tend to confuse "lack of integrity" with "potential." If a man lacks integrity, we prefer to say that he has "so much potential!" to cover up the fact that he's probably a wanker in one form or another. We trick ourselves into believing that inside, he's a good person and we're just the right gal to bring it out of him. Potential isn't enough. While you may have the "potential" to be a good person, Christopher, as a boyfriend you are the epitome of a miserable failure.
Narcissists do not make good boyfriends.
Especially self-admitted narcissists. Red flag!! The paradox here is that narcissists appear to be full of themselves while simultaneously being empty and hollow. They've no sense of self and thusly look to others to fill the void that they have become. A gal cannot be both sides of the relationship. I cannot give enough love for the both of us in a relationship.
Do not lose yourself when falling in love.
See above. If he isn't capable of loving me like I should be loved, loving him more than he deserves is not a suitable substitute. Get out.
Make sure the person you fall in love with actually exists.
I fell in love with an amazing man. Unfortunately, he didn't really exist. The person that I fell in love with was a very well painted façade on the surface of someone who isn't capable of loving anyone else. I realised this far too late and desperately wanted my boyfriend back. However, my boyfriend never existed really. This is heartbreaking.
Good on paper isn't good enough.
I deserve more than good-on-paper. I deserve someone who makes me swoon inside and out, on paper and off.
The following are examples of things that are not okay in a relationship:
-- attempts to change my style of dress/appearance
-- constantly talking about ex-girlfriends
-- proudly admitting shortcomings without desire or intention to work on them
-- allowing me to pay for virtually everything
-- being standoffish to my family
-- making insulting comparisons about my family
-- wincing when I laugh joyously
-- telling me I'm not pretty enough, thin enough, sexy enough (on several occasions)
I'd love to say that those are just "basic" examples but I can't. Each of those things happened in my relationship with Christopher. I said nothing to anyone about it for the most part. That's a flag in and of itself; one I won't be ignoring again.
Letting go hurts, but it's very important. One cannot continue forward when tied to the past.
And with that, I'm letting go of 2006.

These need to be washed & that's a good thing.
Lesson learned on this road trip:
Linger longer
Bring cash
Always have change
Ask the one Jamie question you've been dying, "I can't find red chillies ever! What's a good substitute?"

I wanted to try two new materials at once: Alpaca locks and liquid latex. Bad idea.
Well, actually three new things as I decided to glue the locks right on the fabric wig cap -__-" Needless to say I had not as much of control I use to have when wig making and will try again. Next time I will work "slower": latex glued wefts!
Anyway, the wig came out pretty, far from perfect, lots of learned lessons and was so much fun to play with <3

Matt Johnson and Kim Schifino perform during Matt & Kim's sold-out show on October 15, 2010 at State Theatre in St. Petersburg, Florida. From the moment Matt and Kim stepped on stage, it was a non-stop dance party. Their love for what they do was very apparent by their stage presence, exuberant performance, and interaction with their fans, who reciprocated the love all night long.
