Gloomy Games

Recently my home town has been rather gloomy, but as the day goes on, the weather evolves. This reminds me of how much I have changed this year, trying to find out who I really am, as I make my way as a chameleon. At times I go back into my little turtle shell, sheltering myself from who I truly am. One of my most greatest difficulties it to try to be who I am, but how can I if at times I am left at a stranded road wondering? As the sun fluctuates, and peeks through the clouds for a moment, it reminds me to smile, and to remember it doesn't matter who you are at the moment, it matters about the journey.

Shoes-Sperry Jacket-up-cycled by me

Late Easter night, a spark flew in my mind, and I created the jacket I am wearing in these photos. I cut the sleeves off of an old sweater I got for $5 in seventh grade, and sewed them on to an old jean vest. I really liked the way it turned out, and how the oink (haha I was meaning to say pink) thread contrasts the black and white pattern, matched with the cobalt blue denim. I think I will do another diy like this soon. I have been up-cycling a lot of clothes of mine, most particularly because I need new ones (most are from seventh grade and my style has changed a lot since then).

Photo Diary

I recently got a camera for Christmas (Santa gave it to me!). It is a Nikon AW 1, which is water proof, up to 49 feet underwater, freeze proof, and shock proof (up to six feet). It is truly Gracie-Proof. Here's some of my pics!
