Since I need a little diversion right now, I thought I'd share some great pieces of work. Admiring other people's work is one of the few things nowadays that I can do and just relax. Most of the time I'm thinking about a whole lot of unpleasant things I can't change at the moment anyway... So I hope you'll enjoy these features with me!
On a sidenote: The new css was inspired by a part of the design of Cassandra Clare's Mortal Instruments homepage (read it, by the way, it's fun ), but when I look at it afterwards it reminds me more of Hundertwasser, somehow. Anyway, I like how it turned out.


The selection of pictures below was inspired in a way by the theme "Search for Meaning". Interpret as you will. This year I've thought a lot about what I plan to do with my future (not for the first time, mind you, since I'm not exactly seventeen anymore, but hopefully more successfully than usual...) It always bothered me that I had no real plan or anthing that I could imagine doing for the rest of my life and still enjoy AND earn a living with. I hope I have found that now, because the rest of my life should start right now instead of passing me by. However what I'm doing now turns out, I'll try out the new thing regardless no matter if it's "exspected" to change course again and never settle for one thing, which is a really liberating thought and sets things in perspective. Now, if only I'd been smarter before and decided that earlier, but it seems you cannot be both young and wise... Wouldn't that be unfair.

Enough explanation, enjoy!

It's not at all spring-y here, but still. I could do with a little fresh colour. I won't be around much this spring and summer, I'll probably be far too stressed for that, so here's my parting feature.

Enjoy and visit the artists' galleries!

Hello, my dear watchers, here's the feature of your favourite works that I announced in my last journal. I'm kind of wondering how many of you even read this journal, either only 3 people do or the rest of you have no favourite work... Well, I'm not gonna force anyone. I'm quite short on time myself, so I understand perfectly well that many people skip all the journals they get.
Either way, it's my pleasure to present the works I got, enjoy!

This week's theme feature consists of works I found by searching for the keyword "reach". I love the outcome!
Enjoy and visit the artists' galleries!

Some lines from Caleigh Peters' "Reach" that fit the mood (I have no idea what that song sounds like though...)



Sometimes it seems like you're falling
Falling out of the sky
Sometimes it feels like you're slipping
And running out of time
And that's when you've gotta throw it all away
All of the things that people say
And all of the doubts that fill your mind
Don't belong there

Whatever you do, you'll never be wrong
As long as you reach for it
When you reach for it, nothing's too far
And it's never too long, as long as you reach for it
You can dream on it, everywhere its there














I got a wonderful new camera for my birthday last month, greatest surprise ever. It's the brilliant Sony H50, and I can't wait to try it out. Alas, my time is extremely limited right now, because I'm quite busy with my university work, alongside the work I still have to do to earn my living. Arg.

The project I'm still working on is conceptual photo manip. I've only recently started, but I find it to be a lot of fun, so you'll probably see more of that from me.
What's thing that's really fascinating is creating pictures based on literature. There are some scenes stuck in my head, we'll see if I manage to get them into the visual form I want them to be in.
We'll see when I get on with that...

I'm not really counting the continual changing of my journal css as a project, though I might as well. I have no idea when I'm going to be satisfied with the way it looks. I suppose I'll just keep on changing it ...
