I'm getting old...


Happy 2010.
I'm turning twenty this year. That blows my mind apart...Seriously, there are grey matter shrapnel bits all over my comforter.
I suppose in the spirit of this mighty drunken non-holiday I will make a few (late) New Year's resolutions.
1. Lose ten pounds
(yeah, we've been saying that for about six years now...)
2. Finish The Attack of the Chocolate Eaters illustrations.
3. Finish Mediocre.
4. Get my A.A
5. Buy a house
6. Get a job
7. Record "Forgive my Intrusion"
Boring stuff, I know.

Lately I've been modeling quite a bit for random photographers. It's actually pretty depressing stuff.
I feel like my soul is leaking out a little more with each snap of the camera shutter. I found a depressingly over saturated and blurry photo of myself on Craigslist today. What an honor. I made it to freaking Craiglist guys.
The ideas for shoots that are proposed to me are dull and inane. (Not always but often.)
I'm constantly reminded to look "sexy."
I've got news for me, I'm not sexy.
I might be attractive. Or quirky. Or even pretty...
But I am no flirty babe. Not even a little.
To top it all off? I get no monetary compensation for it all. Just awkwardness and mild humiliation.
I will just keep slugging away though. My goal is to use modeling to pay for cool trips. I'll have to have a pretty rock solid portfolio to pull that off. So I will take the drudgery from now on without complaint.
We are making great strides in music world. I've made up more songs, Nick and I can play together in harmony. (HAHA...pun)
School starts tomorrow. Let's hope Nick leaves me a few cigarettes so I can make it through.
