Me.
A chica from that heart-shaped (almost) state of Ohio. I'm a dreamer, a logical thinker & a realist all rolled into one. INFJ. Fiercely loyal. Strongly intuitive. Loves journaling, being creative & anything in pink (well, except for pink baseball gear. Just...no.) Could live in a bookstore quite contentedly. An aspiring cook who loves Italian & Mexican food. Sims Social addict. Wears my heart on my sleeve but is quick to protect it. Learning to live a healthier life, one day at a time. ♫ Music is love, • baseball is life.

"Almost crumbling to the ground, she stopped. Looking at how far she
had traveled & all it had taken to get there, she recognized her strength.
The strengths she had inside of her, the strength she had gained
along the way - her inner power. And so, she stood up.
Standing tall, she faced forward and continued on."

I'm right here, I know you see me; but your words no longer defeat me... )


And the quote of 2O11 that's inspired me the most...

Layouts.
style=
- past layouts created by moi -

I started this project of saving a screenshot of my layouts back in August of 2005 and thought it was about time to post them. I thought this would be a great way to view my past work on my livejournal layouts, see the trend of my personal favorites that were showcased and see the progression of my work and styles. :-) Say, a kind of photo diary montage of my lj history, if you will. Heh.

I absolutely love the creativity and everything about the graphic making process. It's fun for me to be able to take a blank "canvas" and create something with colors, brushes, fonts, textures and photos. For someone who can't draw, sculpt, etc in real life, being able to be artistic and let my creative side flow through computer graphics is a fun and therapeutic outlet for me. Sounds cheesy but hey, everyone needs a hobby and a way to showcase their talents and what they're about in a sense. This is mine.

Life is music, play it louder... )
