An investigative study into the ways in which certain minorities express themselves, in this case, it’s Drag Queens. Drag is an art and refined skill, but most importantly, drag is a way for one to express themselves through the beauty of a performative identity. Having spoken to over 100 queens over Instagram, I have discovered so much about the culture; such as the fact that there are categories of queens such as comedy queens, spooky queens, club kids, pageant and the most dominant being look queens. It’s fair to say that drag is not something you’d class as ‘normal’, but that certainly doesn’t devalue the significance it truly holds. Breaking gender stereotypes is such a vital way for society to progress. Offensive ideologies such as sexism, homophobia and even transphobia seem to be alleviated as soon as one gets into drag. A man dressed as a women, (usually) part of the LGBT community and clothed in a plethora of elegant attires is so strongly standing for those who are socially repressed in nowadays society for the way in which they identify. Talking to Dixey the queen, she opened my eyes to the idea that “drag is there for those who need that boost of inspiration, that kick of confidence or stance of pride. I live unapologetically and standing on that stage with my double Ds and 30 inch wig makes me feel powerful. but i don’t do it for my own ego, I do it for those who need need the encouragement to be who they want. Yeh, I look like a fool up there, but when my head is high and the crowds are cheering, someone in the world is feeling like they can conquer anything and that is why I get up every morning”.

Created with fd's Flickr Toys.
It is time to dedicate to my online courses.
My study room is my favorite place in my house. It is where I study, organize my stuff, create.... and take photos. Why not?
I love these blossoms; abundant.
Spring comes a bit more cautiously to Boston than it does to New York, but when it comes it knows how to put on a show. Just in time for classes to be out, here's the sun on full display in Medford.

I took this pic at Zangla village, which considered to be the second capital of Zangskar.
Zangla is where Alexander Csoma de Koros ( the pioneer of Tibetan Studies ) stayed and learned Tibetan language 185 years ago.
Know the rules so you’ll know how to break them properly.
- In my case, I need to learn all the laws. :P
*I added another "annoying" watermark so no one on the internet could and should EVER assume that this picture is stock. It isn't! Haha

this study of decollage is realized directly
in the urban space, on a billboard, the natural place of bills. in this case advertisement
already present on the billboard was voluntarily teared up to realize the decollage background upon which pasting
up the poster. so paste up the poster
isn’t a single action, but it became a phase of the project. the subject, handcoloured
with acrilycs, was teared up by anonymous people, that became unwittingly
authors of the installation. in fact, the installation is finished only with the fusion
of the subject with the background, creating a unique 3 x 5 meter decollage.

Assefaw Bariagaber, Ph.D., director of the Post-Conflict State Reconstruction and Sustainability certificate program and professor at Seton Hall's School of Diplomacy and International Relations, led a group of 15 students on an African Union study tour in Ethiopia from March 5 to March 15, during the University's spring break. The tour included both cultural highlights of Ethiopia's rich history and academic seminars on the African Union, which is headquartered in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital.
"The opportunity to participate in this sort of study abroad program was one of the things that drew me to Seton Hall,"says diplomacy master's student John Pollock. "As someone who studied archeology and paleoanthropology as an undergraduate, I'm particularly thrilled to visit the National Archeological Museum to see Lucy [one of the earliest human ancestors ever discovered]."

Meditative Studies
Zen for your walls.
Small nature studies.
Quietly created as drawing meditations.
Each one is unique.
Peaceful simplicity. Slow looking. Radiating stillness.
These are delicate and deceptively simple drawings on quality artist's paper. Matted to fit a standard 8x10" frame.
My art explores an ongoing love of nature and celebrates the brighter, calmer, radiant side of life. It is a reminder that the world smiles with possibility.

I'm studying for my second CCIE; the Route Switch this time. A quote that keeps me going and inspired this photo is by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow:
"The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night."
