Picture that with a Kodak

This time we bout to get funkayyy
 
 WELCOME to the eagle mountain parties. { << For some reason, I feel it necessary you read this part in an irish accent.. like the girl from the Disney movie BRAVE. just do it} Honestly they are the best. I love how our little subdivision gets together and does fun block parties. Today we had a "pig fest".. and the picture explains it all. 
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

A lil something for you to know: You and I are victims of the same disease. We're fighting the same war, just different battles in different theaters and it's way too late for me to hate you for anything, because we're the same dam {beaver dam duh..} thing. Love you all.

“My mom used to say that’s why we have memory. And the opposite of memory—hope. So things that are gone can still matter. So we can build off our pasts and make futures.” -Warm bodies
#confession I just barely watched it. How pathetic I waited that long to finally see it.
But it was the cutest lil movie! But I loved the quote because I love memories and at the same time they can take me back and tear me down. Memories.. Make them the best
Well its getting late fo me. Eyes slowly closing. Havent gotten any sleep latley.. cuz duh, its summer:)
Every time I go to sleep, I know I may never wake up. How could anyone expect to? You drop your tiny, helpless mind into a bottomless well, crossing your fingers and hoping when you pull it out on its flimsy fishing wire.. it hasn't been gnawed to bones by nameless beasts below.
Dream Sweetly.
With love. Your Gal,

don be a quiter stoopid



Have you ever just lived in the moment and you think.. "k wow. I'm loving life"
This moment happened to me the other night and I LOVED IT.
.............
something so small yet absolutely meaningful.
All my family in the car going to get icecream.
just cruising and everyone is happy. there is no fighting at all.
the music turned up loud 
{like really loud}
and everyone is laughing smiling and just enjoying themselves.
happiness.
Lets talk about DANCE.
I lovee dancing.
and CAN NOT wait to get dancing with a group again.
like my body is screaming {and secretly dancing like crazy in my room each night}
I know I'm not amazing. but I love it.
I have a friend who got told he was a terrible dancer 
and his thoughts about dancing tore him and he was going to QUIT...
to tell you the truth.. I learned the hard way.
I quit. yeh yeh. I was a quiter.
but now I know
WHY THE FUSSSSS DID I QUIT?
like.. ya mom you were right.. i was going to regret it.
but I also dont regret it. I learned my lesson.
don be a quiter stoopid.
if you suck. you suck. but that doesnt mean stop trying.
always push yourself.
something I tell myself everyday and encourage everyone to as well.
keep moving forward. with a leap of faith and a positive attitude.

enjoy yourselves on such a bright and lovely weekend

with much love 
and many many kisses to you
.................................................

your gal

Latley, a lot latley.. the thought " why me? why why why me? "

but not until just now. I realized well.. why not?
Its happening for a reason. There has to be.
For me to learn and grow.

until now I actually realized im not the only person living such a confusing life.
I use to look around and think.. "shes got it easy. She has a perfect family, Shes pretty, easy love life"
and just complain to myself and put myself down hoping a wishing I could have such a simple perfect life.
But I dont. and I've finally learned to just accept it.

Challenges will be placed in my path, but I can over come them.
I know when I'm in the moment of the challenge, I freak out thinking ..I just can't do this. 
But time passes and things change and before you know it. That crazy tiny segment of your life is over with. For you to look back on and grow from.



Question 1:

What makes you happiest?

Well dang this is hard. Only because so many things make me happy. Gosh.
Ill list some ..maybe that'll help me narrow it down.

>> the love my savior has for me. 
{this one is defiantly a winna} I know I'm never alone. I'm loved always by him. 

>> laughing so hard with my friends.
Those nights when you just can't seem to stop laughing over dumb little things. 

>> ICECREAM 
Ok icecream.. Icecream is my favorite thing. It can just switch my mood in the blink of an eye! Not even kidding! 
But is it what makes me happiest?..prolly not.

>> music. Music always soothes the soul. It speaks my story for Me. It's in my blood. Music always makes me happy. I love it!!

>> being around the people I love.
{another winna} family parties with everyone there smiling and telling stories. Idk. Something about that just makes me happy. Or being around that special someone. Even if we just sat on the porch together doing nothing..being the most boring people..I would still walk away feeling completely happy. 

>> being told I'm special. 
But doesn't everyone? I mean..it's always nice to be reminded of our importance on this earth. We all need those friendly compliments every once in a while right?
Question 2:

Why do you like photography?

Aw man. I loveeee taking pictures. It's crazy. I'm constantly taking pictures.
When the camera is in my hands..{this is going to sound insane..like I've gone crazy..but bare with me}
When the camera is in my hands I feel me. Like its suppose to be there.. My eye becomes like an eagles eye. I get super creative, my mind flows with a million ways I could take the picture and feel good
It makes me feel special . Because its a hobby. I'm passionate about it.
Also, every moment is in change. Creating memories for people to keep forever. To be able to look back and almost relive the moment in your mind again. As many of you know, i take pictures of people. I love taking pictures of people. Especially kandid shots. I can't help but to smile back at the picture. I like to stop and capture things people don't usually take the time to look at.
I just love it. It's a part of me.

{you can take a preview of my photos on the photography tab above!}

Ok enough of my crazy talk.  I hope you enjoy a few pictures of my weekend. 
A picture is worth a thousand words. A thousand words I can't explain..because I'm a bit hungry and need to feed myself:)

Stay strong. Much luck and love.

Lil moments like these


I had the opportunity to take photos of these wonderful {troubled}girls from my Aunts work.
I had so much fun taking them. They have sparkling personalities. Sad thing is I'm not aloud to post any of the pictures on the internet because yada yada yada .. parents dont want their troubled teen online.
but honestly they are soo beautiful.

Also, Today one of my cousins had his homecoming. Kawaii Kauo
Honestly didn't think I'd tear up.. but I did.
The strong testimony of a returned missionary. Bam. Gets you yuh know?
I wish I had the talent to explain and share with you what he shared in sacrament today. . but I cant.
I just know what he spoke was truth.
I will tell you of one of his stories though:
As all missionaries leave on their mission they pack all the things they need and well a camera.. to create and capture their mission. To share with family and for personal memories.
So lets say you loose the SD card.. then what? Well.. this is exactly what happened to him.
to me its so hard to loose any pictures i take.. even the dumb pictures
But to be serving your mission, one year worth of amazing memories and pictures all saved into one little SD card.. and wah-la.. ITS LOST! say what? CRUSHED.
Well your lost from there right? Cant do anything about it? sorry.
Nah I'm just kidding, of course there is something you can do. PRAY.
So Kawaii was having a rough day..partner was hard to work with..no one else to visit.. and went into his room prayed. Prayed for help comfort. {this is where he got me in his talk.. When he started choking on his words and teared up.. Idk how to explain it but..you just know what he's saying is true. It's so powerful} 
Later he went in his room to find the SD card on his bed. The moment of complete happiness. He said his partner had found it in the middle of the closet. 
Like woah. I'd be sooo happy. Maybe just cause I'm a photo person.. But I mean, it's your mission..you defiantly want those pictures.
What a blessing. 
So I choked up a lil when he was telling how hard it was & how he could pray for help. I love it. I know know know that to be true. Absolutley true. I know I can always find comfort when I pray.

Monday: well. I know for a fact id never want to be an actor. Longggg lonnng days of sitting. And then acting and then sitting an then acting.
Just sayin.
I was one of the girls to play in a growing boy band music video. Fun..but at the same time not. 
And how the kwaa do you fake laugh.
I feel bad now. I always tell the people I take pictures of to -fake laugh-

Missin my sissy soul in Miami.
Stay safe sug.

There are man eating sharks in the water.. but we still swim
Lighting can strike anywhere at anytime when there is a storm..but we still play in the rain..
Because bad things cant stop us from making our life good.

Well. Im going to say it. Im miss my childhood best friend. The one who made summer worthwile!

Honestly we were inseperable. #holla #longlostsissy

I guess..its throwback week. Lookin back on my life.
Life was simple. Easy. Adventerous.
I wanna be little again. .. Cant. Sorry.

Ok viagra commercial...stop coming on.

Last night i had a dream of my little brother walking with me. Did you hear that? Yep..i said walking...
His little hand clinged onto my arm and just walked with me. Weirdest place though..we were walking in new york. Ha anyone have a translation for my dream?
Best dream. I cant wait to see my lil bug and see him walk.
I miss him like...CRAZY. But im sooo happy he met me in my sweet dreams.

Next. I miss another Himmmm. 
My main main.

Man. Im missing everyone.

The night is dark. It calls for breaking glowsticks and splatting them everywhere.
Wait..actually dont do  that.. 
Unless..well.. You dont care for the glass and smell after. But i must admit..it is fun to do.

Oh woah woah.. Ladies n gents. If your sparkling eyes are searching for one handsome lds felluh. Get yourself to the smiths in provo. Sexy can i. So many many cute guys. Ok maybe it was just tonight that all the hotties traveled to smiths but..you sure missed out on some eye candy.

Speaking of lds people. 
I was on facebook and a girl posted how she went to a resturaunt and some "cocky white mormons" were whispering how short her shorts were and how she was going to bend over so they would see her ace so they would stop judging..{ya i just said ace} anyhoo..on the comments it said how did she know if they were lds?
And she said "because they were white and cocky" 
OK wanted to ..poop.. that skitch.
Really? I hate how people like that view things.
...... She says not to judge her..yet...shes judging them.
#blessherheart 
Come on sweetie. We are all human. We all judge. We ALL do. 
Just because we are lds does not automaticly give us the power to absolutley not judge people.
We just learn to control it . We are only human
Ok. I got it out of me. 

Well. Peace out salty. 
Wait..what does salty mean?
Forgive me if its bad.
With love
Desiree.

 photo Untitled-2_zpsa4ee509a.jpg

Hi fellow people.
I got new shoes yesterday.
I like dem a lot.
this blog is going to be so very pointless..
because the only reason im even writing a post is to try out my new signature.
so basically.. here are some pictures for you to enjoy.

haha gotcha.. or did I? maybe i got myself.. 
I was going to say "gotcha! you thought there would be more than two pics"
but you obviously you can see how many pictures there are already.
Fuss.

so. where do i start with my senior summer?
OF course pony express days! Seriously about the first day of summer and im already on my parade grind. I love Parades and festivals. if you don't like them.. we simply cant be friends.
I have a dad that just screams and shouts for candy.. pretty sure that's the only reason we love parades so much. 
and later tonight.. FIREWORKS!
#holla

I hope all of your guys summer is goin fab so far.
Be happy.
Get your sunkissed beautiful skin.
When I was a little kid, of course, I was brown all summer. That's because I was free as a bird- nothing to do but catch bugs all day.

Call me for any photoshoots.
I'd be MORE than happy.
dont be shy.
call me up.
Oh.. and this is my 100th post.
congrats to me.
