Ian Høiland

so happy to have taken some photos of Ian before he went back to Denmark

its refreshing to take photos of a new face

much afraid

i miss my days of traveling.
maybe this summer i will get to slip away to somewhere north and cold.

found some photos from my time in korea.




Most of the times I got nothing to say
When I do it's nothing and nobody's there to listen anyway
I know I'm probably better off this way
I just listen to the voices on the TV 'til I'm tired
My eyes grow heavy and I fade away

Crooked on the outside, inside is caved
I taught myself how to grow old

lesson 2 - there are right ways to fight

currently listening to: jars of clay - all albums
today is a jars day. they always know whats going on.


sometimes. well most times. Gossip Girl hits way close to home.
last nights episode was by far one of the best.
it has left me in this crazy thinking mood today.



there will be liars and thieves who take from you

run run run away

currently listening to: yeah yeah yeahs - its blitz! - runaway

I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay

cold desert - kings of leon

I'm on the corner waiting for a light to come on
that's when i know that you're alone
it's cold in the desert water never sees the ground
special ones walk on without sound

told me you love me, that i'd never die alone
hand over your heart let's go on
everyone knowed it everyone has seen the signs
i've always been known to cross lines

i never ever cried when i was feeling down
ive always been scared of the sound
jesus don't love me no-one ever carried my load
im too young to feel this old

nobody knows
nobody sees
nobody but me

black burning heart

currently listening to: keane - hopes and fears - we might as well be strangers


well its sunday, just another sunday of realization.
the moment i believe things are better i just get let down. again.
i wish i could cut and paste relationships


i had a really busy week. i didnt go to church today. i havent been to church in so long.
im not over Jesus, i just dont know where i fit.
it might just be all in my head but for now, i will just sit here and drink my wine.

spent sometime with bobby, here is a photo from out time together.

3am

currently listening to: ryan adams - follow the lights - dear john


hello world.

today has been a pretty good day.
i finally have my desk set up with all my hard drives and little toys all hooked up.
now if only i can get this dang high speed internet to be high speed...
ive been trying to keep myself as busy as possible.
its weird living in this town again, ive lived here all my life but yet i still feel like a stranger...
i never leave my house, if i do i go get coffee down the street or to get a salad at panera.
its like i live in my own rehab center, i have this crazy pool that i can just walk out to and its pretty dang nice
compared to my situation a month ago. im very blessed. now? ha

i miss some people.
some more than others. but it sucks when your closest friends get distant.
or those that you want in your life want nothing to do with you even though you do everything in your power for them
i have no idea where life will be in a year or even 6 months. things are changing constantly.
and changing very dramatically. at least for me they are.

some say im a very mean person. i use to just laugh about it
but im kinda thinking about it more, i know that my friends dont think i am, just people on the outside.
which i guess i should start caring more about?

anyways, more emo talk later yall

sometimes bands that i have shot in the past email me or in this case text me and ask me to send them a high res version of a photo.
usually its really annoying. but in this case, i love these dum babys.
i finally got around to pulling the photos up about an hour ago which was 2am so they might look a lil funny to me in the morning but whatever. i know that i for sure went a lil to far with this one...


art?


goodnight dum babys
