Santa Monica

just old some photos from our trip to Santa Monica before summer ended... I miss the warm weather so much.

Overdue update

I'm disappointed in myself for not updating my blog for over 4 months, but my hiatus has come to an end and I'm back! SO MUCH has happened since my last post.

First and foremost, Charles and I got back together in October... I'm pretty sure everyone knew our "breakup" was just a phase in our relationship and that we'd eventually end up together again haha. We definitely needed our time apart because we learned to appreciate each other more and it was so nice to have a fresh start. We fell in love with each other all over again and we're stronger than ever.

I moved to LA six months ago to be closer to my job. It was a dream living there as my first time living away from home and I really enjoyed being on my own. My first job as a nurse was great and I learned so much. Surprisingly, I didn't dread going to work. But unfortunately, I quit a month ago due to a personal situation that occurred and got out of hand. I'm back in Temecula again... its just as depressing as I remembered.

Now that I'm back home, I'm planning on keeping my blog up to date. I also plan on improving Candid LA and taking it to a whole new level. I neglected my website for far too long but with a little bit of tlc, I'll get it going again. I have so many ideas and plans for the site, I felt inspired all of a sudden as soon as I quit my job. I'm excited to be my own boss again.

My next few posts are going to be bit outdated because I have a lot of catching up to do. Whoever may be reading this, thanks for sticking with me for so long.

Hello, Fall.

I'm not too fond of Fall weather, but I admit, I am excited to whip out my comfy knit sweaters, jeans, and boots... but of course, I got to make crop tops work somehow. I had the pleasure of shooting with Jeff a few weeks ago. It was definitely fun driving around LA and stopping at random spots to shoot. I'm looking forward to another shoot with this gentleman!

Update

I've been doing better, thanks to a few close friends and the fam. Its nice knowing who was there for me to pick me up when I was at my lowest. I think I've finally accepted the recent unfortunate events that have happened and I'm actually happy now. My dad noticed that I was feeling down a few weeks ago and he said to me, "Don't even worry about that stuff, you're still young. All you have to worry about is making money and having fun." Thanks dad, I'm doing exactly that.

Credz to Karl for the super cool photos.

Solo.

I'm on my own now, but I'm stronger than ever. I'm moving on to the next chapter of my life.
