"It might have been a while Since you've been loved..."

Well EXCELLENT morning to everyone on this fine beautiful sunny warmish day!
I feel quite happy today for some reason. I'm guessing it's the weather and the fact that sun is shining today. Although yesterday was horrible, raining raining and raining and I thought it wound ruin my day, BUT I was wrong cause I still go to do all the things I planned and then some.
Speacing of then somes, this is the then some I did :) I was bored at home and decided to see how my idea would turn out in reality. And I was not supposed to use myself as a model...but eh, when your bored your bored and when you have no one else around you yourself are the next best thing I guess. Funny how when ever I havea photo of myself it's usually out of boredom :D hahah
Soooo...I "glued" some hearts on my lips, posed infront of the camera, photoshopped a bit more than usual...and vóla!
I do like it how my lips look very juicy...like those hearts were smushy candy. Don't you think?
Oh and I just had to add those creepy eyes. Reminds me of husky dogs. (or what ever they are called) And yes I am really pale and white in real life...but not THIS pale :P
Anyways, that's it for today!
Enjoy if you can!
and most defenetly try to enjoy the day no matter what the weather is like! :)



You can't depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. ~Mark Twain

P.s. as usual, I LOVE THIS SONG! and the LYRICS!




"It might have been a while
Since you've been loved
Like you should be loved

It might have been a while
Since you've been kissed
Like you should be kissed

In tender loving arms
Might be something you miss

Well summerbreeze is blowing through your window
And summerbreeze is blowing through your hair
And something in your eyes that you cannot disguise
Don't tell me it ain't there

It might have been a while
Since you've been loved
By one who really loves you

It might have been a while
Since you could trust
That someone really cares

When people like us
Meant to go 'round in pairs

Summerbreeze is blowing through your window
And summerbreeze is blowing through your hair
Something in your eyes that took me by surprise
Don't tell me that it ain't there"

"maybe I was born to hold you in these arms..."

Baby tiiiime!
This is the new little princess to enter our family. Such cute little girl!
I took these pictures a while ago at her little 'nameparty' or what ever it is called.
they're just some moment captured and nothing earth shatering but cute none the less.
Hope you like them.


When ever I see her I just wanna kiss her all over that cute little face!

While we try to teach our children all about life,
Our children teach us what life is all about.
~Angela Schwindt



Yeah this last picture didn't really turn out the way it was supposed to...babies are really hard to take pictures of. Seriously! She kept moving all the time and pee'd on the blanket...twice? hahah
Well that's the best I got. Better luck next time I guess.

aaaaand more musiiiic!



Maaan I just love this song. Listen to the lyrics!

"...there's a voice singing loudly on the radio just for you
and good fortune will find him in the end
maybe i was born to hold you in these arms..."

"The heart is a rebel, Make me see..."

Heyheyheyyyyyyy!
I'm back!
School applications have been sent and I'm FREEE!! well almost free, there's always work to be done to earn some money. But other than that I just need to wait for replies now from the schools to tell me if I have or have not been approved for the tests...yup just for the tests. If I pass the tests, THEN just then I might get into a school. Tricky tricky, I know...so fingers crossed people!
I did actually get a reply from the first school I signed for and they asked me to come for the tests. So now I'm signed for 3 day art tests from May 10th to 12th...scaaaryyyyy!!
Oh well, I'll try my best and that's all I can do really. If I get in I get in and GREAT! if I don't well...then they don't know what they're talking about :P hahah No but seriously, I'm trying not to get my hopes up. And I'm actually kind of annoyed with myself for telling people that I'm applying for the schools, cause I'm gonna hate it so much if I don't get in and then I'll have to explain to everyone...iiiiishk!


I'm not brave enough to show you guys just yet what kind of photos I send to these schools. Some of the assignments were pretty easy but some very quite hard. So I'm just gonna show you some random pics I took inbetween the assignments when I was practising.
These are some flowerpower pictures I took of this GORGEOUS dead flower we had in our kitchen. Yes it used to be alive but had dred up and as I was about to trow it out, I noticed how it had kept its beautiful color. So naturally I had to capture the beauty...well atleast try to do it. Just beautiful reds and pinks!

Had the price of looking been blindness, I would have looked. ~Ralph Ellison


So hope you enjoed these and I'll be back asap with new pictures again!
Thanks for staying tuned in!
Love,
PaperHeart

p.s. More lovely music as always...
hopefully I'll be seeing this artist this summer!



...and then another artist I like:




"...The heart is a rebel
Make me see
I'm waiting for the wild
The heart is a rebel
Stay with me
I'm waiting for the wild

Nite after nite i open my eyes
Read between the silver lines, the end

Baby let's pretend it won't be always so hard
Somewhere along the end we'll be back at the start
It will be easier
It will be easier

"That the sweetest of words have the bitterest taste..."

I'm really sorry everyone for not updating :/
I'm really busy at the moment and don't have anything new that I could show you guys. I have new stuff yeah, but I can't show them yet cause they are for my school applications :/
Try to hang in there...as if you're really holding your breath and waiting for me to post anything :P hahah...
but in the mean while I have these photos from the best gig EVER!
I went to see one of my fav bands of all time yesterday, and let me tell you I got goose bumps and it blew my mind! I LOVE FLORENCE+THE MACHINE! <3 It was worth waiting for! When I first started to dig and listen to their music in England, I didn't think I'd "fall" for them this hard :D hahah never been a fan type :) Seriously I'm telling you I've gone crazy! :D
But I AM A STUPID PERSON AS WELL! I was so stupid in fact that I didn't take my own camera to the gig and let me tell you how sorry I felt at the gig! I felt like crying! I was so close to the stage and had THE BEST place to take photos! but NO, I took my sister's cam with me that kept dying on me and it really doesn't give good quality...I guess I just should be glad that I had a cam with me and got some descent pictures.


Oh well...at least it was a good gig and something I will remember forever!
oh and I think that the pic at the middle actually is a good photo..for some reason I like it and how it turned out :D hahah

and here one song from them..it's my fav at the moment. I just love the lyrics!
Enjoy!

Love,
PaperHeart

p.s I just love the lyrics so much that I have to post a part of it:
"There is love in your body but you can't hold it in
It pours from your eyes and spills from your skin
Tenderest touch leaves the darkest of marks
And the kindest of kisses break the hardest of hearts

The hardest of hearts
The hardest of hearts
The hardest of hearts

There is love in your body but you can't get it out
It gets stuck in your head, won't come out of your mouth
Sticks to your tongue and shows on your face
That the sweetest of words have the bitterest taste

Darling heart, I loved you from the start
But you'll never know what a fool I've been
Darling heart, I loved you from the start
But that's no excuse for the state I'm in

The hardest of hearts
The hardest of hearts
The hardest of hearts

There is love in our bodies and it holds us together
But pulls us apart when we're holding each other
We all want something to hold in the night
We don't care if it hurts or we're holding too tight
..."

"May this night keep you here 'Til tomorrow..."


BAAAAAAA!!
I'm SICK! not nice...oh well...
flu and this freaking cold (but pretty) weather got me thinking about summer and how much I miss it...so I went through some old photos and decided to post few pics from last summer and few years back.
Nothing special, just few pictures which made me crave for summer, warm weather and lovely dresses...
Hope these warm you up a bit on these cold days...

To see the Summer Sky
Is Poetry, though never in a Book it lie -
True Poems flee.
~Emily Dickinson
In winter I get up at night
And dress by yellow candle-light.
In summer quite the other way
I have to go to bed by day.
~Robert Louis Stevenson



A life without love is like a year without summer. ~Swedish Proverb

p.s. another song I love...sooo relaxing!

"time is a deceiver you think you own and it turns away. Fast, oh so fast it burns like a comet that crashes..."

If things go wrong, don't go with them. ~Roger Babson


Well hellooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Some more RedLady pictures...this time I was the one posing for the pictures.
Don't know what to really say except that I was really freezing my a** off there :D hahah
and I still have a thing for reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!

Oh and you'll be happy to hear...or not...that I'll be applying for photography schools now. Need to do a lot of prework for those schools and I have to go to work as well (I've been swamped with that lately :S), so I'll be having pretty much no time to update my blog :( BUT I'll do my best. I don't want this to die. I like my blog, even if no one would read it, it still is something for me to do and get inspired by :)
I feel like my head is going crazy with the photography assignments that I need to do...I feel so uninspired. Although I have figured out what to do with 3 of them (oh and these assignments are just for one school...I'm applying for four)
busybusybusybusy!!

Heavy thoughts bring on physical maladies; when the soul is oppressed so is the body. ~Martin Luther

Boy was he right...you can absolutely see the stress of this all on my face right now..and apparently feel the tension on my neck. Got the worst headache yesterday, I've had troubles with my shoulder for a long time, but let me tell you yesterday was horrible. I felt like throwing up because of the pain. Stress can do that to you too...
Oh well, I'll be fine...all I can do is do my best and hope for even better and then maybe, just maybe I'll get in somewhere.
If not, then I'll keep working and photographing on my own and see where that goes and apply again next year...although I do not wish that to happen.



And here's some lovely music from my beloved band called Kashmir...mmmm-mmm-mmmm...love em! I'm in loooove!
Enjoy!
and I'll be back asap!

Love,
PaperHeart

"sometimes when this place gets empty, sound of a breath fades with the light..."


Yellooooooooow everyone!
It's freaking COLD HERE! (well actually today it is better) but SOOOOO beautiful outside at the sametime. We get snow like crazy every day. Cars and people have trouble moving from place to place, but we manage none the less. We are people of the north after all hahah

Here's few photos I took while I made my sister stand in the freezing cold snow in the middle of frozen sea. Her skin got blue end red but she did it none the less and after wards said something like this "you owe me BIG time..." hahah

I prefer this last photo and it is the main one...these two others are just extra.
The one at the bottom is more what I was looking/aiming for when I got this random idea in my head. If you didn't know or hadn't noticed before I've always had a thing for red, black and white. Red is just something that catches my eye straight away and makes me feel bolder somehow.
I love wearing it. But I usually wear it little bit somewhere. Like white shirt, black leggings and red shoes or red bow in my head or something like that...or better yet red lips. Muah! hahah


Every mile is two in winter. ~George Herbert

Hope you enjoyed these!
