A love of shopping, gacha's, music, taking pictures and blogging

The preciousness of life and the changes of weather and the beauty of seasons – all those things have always sort of dazzled me…

When the seasons shift, even the subtle beginning, the scent of a promised change, I feel something stir inside me. Hopefulness? Gratitude? Openness? Whatever it is, it’s welcome.

Self-Care is Never a Selfish Act…

“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”

You, You Came Just One Dream Ago…

And I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss

Oh, like dreamers do
Like dreamers do

Art is an Evolutionary Act…

Modeling is really silent acting…

I believe every woman’s body is beautiful in its own way. I have never understood that just because a woman has thick thighs, she is considered fat. For so long, I’ve been around in the modeling world and have tried to break that barrier. But I think now it’s turning around.

Many Realities are Hidden Behind Walls of Perception…

While I was looking into your eyes, I suddenly started to realize things about myself that were unspoken for years, like fragments of my inner life that were deeply repressed. It’s hard to distinguish if they were buried inside because dealing with them was such a dirty work, or if leaving them unnamed meant that it was not possible to define them precisely enough, so they would keep their true meaning. Perhaps, all this life that I’ve known so far was in fact no more but a dream about living. The only thing that has kept me in touch with reality was you…

I know it comes as a surprise, and you may be wondering why it took me so long to come clean. You also may be wondering how come you’ve never noticed before. I’ve tricked you on purpose, yes, and you must realize it really has nothing to do with you. It’s always been me. This is why, seeing you in my dream like that, came out as a shock. You also must forgive me. You must forgive me because I know how it looks like, that everything we ever shared was a lie, and it wasn’t…
