1 Month Hiatus
Yikes...I didn't think it would take me a whole month to do another post. Time certainly does fly.
I was working on another post, jumping between my phone and my iPad but it didn't save and I lost it. I lost the passion for it and gave up on it all together. Maybe for good reason too.
This post won't really have any theme or focus on just one thing, I just want to give a little update about what's going on in my life like I did when my mom was going through her treatments.
Well it's August! Which means I only have about 2-3 more weeks until school starts. I'm not freaking out, yet, but I'm sure it will come. I am worried however because I paid the deposits for both the course and residence but haven't heard anything from either! I even took the language assessment to determine my classes and nothing! I am freaking out a little because I don't want all of this to hit me all at once when I'll only have a week to figure everything out.
I guess the least all I can do now is pack, make sure I don't forget anything and get as many shifts as I can at work.
Work.
I'm really going to miss the Cineplex theatre that I work at. I've wanted that job for SO long! And (most) of the people there are so nice! The good news is that they were able to transfer me to another theatre location near the residence I'll be staying at so I'll have a job while attending school! I was extremely happy and extremely grateful for that, I wanted to cry on the spot when I found out! And during the winter time and summer they said I could always come back! Which I definitely will, I just can't help but feel it won't be there. Don't get me wrong it's a big theatre but it's old and you can tell. It's not that popular and I've heard it's a miracle we aren't shut down yet. I love it there so I pray it will still stand!
Church!
I am a Apostolic Pentecostal, tongue talking Christian and I attend the APC church in Pickering! I've been going there for as long as I can remember and after attending a few other church for their events, I would not go anywhere else! I love it there, it is my church and we are having our annual R.E.A.P Conference (Releasing Endtime Apostolic Power). It's from Wednesday to Sunday night (oh boy) but no honestly I'm excited! It's going to be fun and I'm sure the preaching will be fantastic! You can check us out on your website here, the live stream is right on the front page. I'm hoping during school I can come home on the weekends to go to church because I haven't found one near the school but good thing is I'm not going too far.
Books!
I'm so embarrassed to type this but...I haven't finished Isla and the Happily Ever After yet! I'm so embarrassed! This is the book I wanted before all the others and I can't finish it?! It's not a bad book but I guess clearly it's not that interesting to me if it's taking me I think about TWO months to finish! I think the reason why is because I have my mind set on owning Serena Valentino newest Disney Villian novel of Ursula from the Little Mermaid! I believe she got back notes from her editor so she's gonna make a few changes, maybe a lot who knows? I'm can't wait!
This picture shows my...struggle right now. I wrote in the post before this that I got new books, well those two are Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell and Starry Night but Isabel Gillies. I have heard nothing but good things from Eleanor and Park and fell in love the moment I saw it. And, can't wait to own the second one Fangirl! I've wanted Starry Night for awhile, I first saw it in an instagram post and fell in love with the cover but after I read a little I LOVED IT! As much as it is KILLING ME! I don't want to read to all the boys I've loved before because I want to own the second one before starting. It's like watching the first season of a TV and knowing the second one is out and you don't have it. The bottom two I have been aching to read! I even started! but stop because I was like "NO! I have to finish Isla first!" I still have the selection series but haven't finished owning all of them yet so when I do I will definitely start. I'm just so happy to own all these books and contrary to popular belief I AM excited and I AM going to read them all.
Family.
My family has been struggling for awhile. Actually ever since we moved. We haven't all lived together in a really long time and now that we're all grown up and all our own person it's hard. We had family meetings and family bible study and prayer but it's still didn't work. But we recently just had another family meeting and so far so good. We're all on good terms and now there finally feels like there is peace. Except for that fact that my mom wants to find a job. She hasn't worked since her surgery and it's driving her up a wall. She wants a job but is no condition for it. She has the place set up for a daycare but no one is coming. But I have faith, always have and so has she so everything will work out. It has to.
Photography.
I haven't picked up my camera for about two weeks now and I've been itching to do something. A wedding, birthday party, a random photoshoot, something! I'm suppose to go out with my friend and do a random shoot with her, and then hopefully my family and I will go to NYC for a weekend so a great opportunity there. Fingers cross! I have been working on my watermark though for when I get serious,
I choose the name Phase because it's what I called my first shop in the Nintendo DS Style Savvy which I choose because it means it's always changing. It's never the same, it's a Phase. I thought it was clever and it has stayed with me ever since. I thought it was perfect for my type of photos because I don't really have a theme or particular look when I take photos, it's always different, always changing. But a good change! I'm still working on it, I don't like math and "graphy" reminds me of it so that's why it's stroked out :)
I've also been working on my edits. When I take certain photos I like to edit them like this simple one,

I still suck at it but hopefully school will give me the push, knowledge and tools I need to do better and to make up my mind. I'm also hoping to upgrade my gear soon.
Well that's pretty much it. I did go to the Disney store the other day (FINALLY!) I was so happy. It is literally the closest I'll ever get to Walt Disney World. I bought a little friend there that I'll show you guys in my next post.
Here's a hint, a movie about HER recently came out and the DVD/Bluray release will be sometime in September.
The post will be a movie review so look forward to that. I am!
Thank you for reading, sorry for such a long post. A lot to take in.
Stay blessed guys!
