Charles was not happy with my position in the flat-flight, she wasnt comfortable with the pose [...]

Sunny Saturday

O how i love the weekends; sitting all day in the sun, reading, sketching and taking in every moment. It does not feel at all like the weekend, but i partially blame this on the fact that thursday i was absent (dentist in venice) and then friday i was only at school for the second [...]

Post-OVERDUE

Its been a week since my last post and i am feeling quite guilty, in reality since last sunday so much has been going on, so much which actually makes me wonder how my body/mental state is still working. Quick re-cap of the week, as we all know Monday night was the big Bouchard party [...]
