Soon, this will be public.
I am putting together a list of all the songs that touched me, or made my feet dance.
I am also making a list of new year's resolutions.
1. Never dwell on the past again, no matter how hurtful, how dark, no matter if the other party doesn't ever want to forgive and forget. I am better than that. I know it. I believe it.
2. Stop smoking socially. or whenever I'm incredibly stressed.
3. Bond with my friends in Guatemala. Make beautiful photographs.
4. Get some, asap. It will definitely contribute to #1 resolution.
5. Yoga, more often.
6. Kiss.
7. Hug the air. Hug all the great people in my life. let them know I love them.
8. Cut back on coffee.
9. Go back to school, work, pay student loans (or start paying them).
10. Remember to breath, always.
11. "Ire fortiter quo nemo ante iit" tattooed, under my left arm. January 3rd. Birthday gift?

What it means to take 52 Self-portraits.
This is a project I started last summer as a self-therapy weekly ritual. It's kind of like going to speak to your therapist for an hour, but not quite. I don't get any advice back, usually I just feel reassured, also when I don't feel like taking a photo of myself, it's a creative challenge. I wrote an article on Zenfolio about my self-portraits, you should read it if you haven't, it's called "In-Between Days". I also recently commented on it. I don't regret the last thing I wrote. It was an honest article, but it took me a while to realize some things.
52 self-portraits is my way to express what I feel each week. A lot of these express my way of moving on from a very serious relationship that ended six months ago, and left me completely jaded and bitter. Recently someone posted this song on facebook by one of my favorite musician/composers, James Scott Tamborello aka Dntel and vocals done by the lovely musician, Jenny Lewis from the band, Rilo Kiley. The song is called Roll On. It is the perfect description of what I've gone through. I just hope that I don't always feel that way again. I'm giving myself a limit, there are 30 more self-portraits to do. After that, I better be done, even though it really does feel like by now... I should be, and feel like I am; not to mentioned I closed the horrible chapter of emotional hiccups two nights ago.
On another note, completely unrelated to self-portraits, I will be traveling to Guatemala again. This time, I am not traveling alone. My very good friend Stephanie Bassos and her friend Kelly Jung will be accompanying me on this eight day photo adventure. We will be visiting places like Antigua Guatemala, Panajachel, Santa Ana (in El Salvador), Copán (Honduras), and Tikal (the Mayan Temples). I'll come back just in time to hopefully pack my bags and head far, very far East.
