pictures!!

[soliloquy]

and two front teeth.  soliloquy - sometimes 'impression' is best given by a long shot - and not directly under the nose.

your more youthful pic on the wall looks like the adams family's son.

ps did you fold a small piece of paper for those two front teeth?  these are exactly the kinds of 'before' pictures i see on the orthodontists wall.  tell your parents to use the dental insurance before you're 18.  or is it too late?

no worries.  my mom had to wait until her 30's.  her teeth look nice.  (our family has had all kinds of orthodontal challenges).

Sometimes, but it is never given by posting nothing at all, although in your case it's safe to assume this might be a good thing   Also, my arms are not quite long enough to get my webcam 10 feet away from me; if you would like to draw me a diagram of how I can do this with Jesuspowers then I'd be very interested though.  Also, that's a picture of my brother, not me   My more youthful pic looks like the youthful version of a male model, of course.  Also, what exactly is wrong with my teeth?  And, as you know, I am 18.




They look fine to me.  Maybe it's just the angle that pic was taken at.  But the total amount of time that went into that pic is approximately 25 seconds at 3:30AM for tds with a 10 dollar webcam because he asked me in the chatroom.  Not really going for high fashion    What about the mornings brings out such a nasty side in you

Excellent set of nashers.

No sign of decay at all.

i do not like getting my picture taken.  i don't know why.  perhaps you are right.  i always think i have a big nose.  usually my best pictures are when i am unaware i am being photographed.  like tonight, at the musical.  they walk around and shoot pics.  when i am playing the piano - i don't notice.

i did a swimsuit calendar once.  for my hsuband.  i bought a load of bikinis on sale in january - modeled them all at the end of the month - attempting to make them look like different months.  i had a girlfriend of mine take pictures.  only half of them turned out.  but, the string bikini was the favorite.  the thing is - i don't do that any more.  it's not that i don't care what i look like - but i think that sometimes people care too much about it.

for me, the problem is finding a photography studio with a nice piano in it.

for me, the problem is finding a photography studio with a nice piano in it.

ps - perhaps i should like to be challenged to pose some of you?  for soliloquy, i suggest giving the illusion of chiseled features using some dark brown shadow under cheek bones and by placing you near some kind of mountain with a rope in your hand and perhaps even a harness on and halfway up some kind of cliff.  girls like it when there is an element of danger in a picture.  i would not suggest an open smile- but rather a sort of grimace.

the second pose can be a casual one.  perhaps taking off where lau left off - and actually hovering right around the circular stained glass window in the ceiling.  what would be most unusual would be for you to actually be facing upwards - as though you were going through it defying gravity.  just for fun, of course.  and no threat to the church building.  just sort of looking stuck there.

 

Anyway, edited my post, as far as that last remark.  I might have taken what you said to be more attacking than it was.  Maybe >>  Either way, luckily I'm not looking to attract girls, so the fact that I don't have any mountains won't be a big deal XD

[pianistimo]

no offense meant. 

ps can i photoshop your picture to show you what i mean?

[thalbergmad]

i did a swimsuit calendar once. 

I expect one picture could cover 3 months.

Lola is in reference to the Barry Manilow song Kopa Cabanna, or whatever it is. lol A mini van needs a glamorous name!  Went on a road trup 1000 KM in two days, it was a good time!



Why I am no longer allowed to drive.... (I'm on the right of the photo)

[lichristine]

A Dream Come True. For the first time ever, and i cannot think of any (semi-realistic) dream i would've chosen to have come true. This is me and Jonah MAtranga (he is loving my shirt) and he is my favorite musician, and his music has been such an incredible influence and impact and so important and helped me through so much and I loves him and i loves his music and this was an incredible night. There were maybe 25 people on the floor of a dusty overcluttered gorgeous little bookstore in san francisco, and he was there just to play music, chill, talk, hug, it was great. He dedicated the first song to me cos me being there (being allowed out of my house) was my birthday present from my best friend (and i can't think of a better one) so yeah. Dream Come True.


this is him


this is how that night made me feel (you know those warm fuzzies you get from intense happiness? Imagine those in org@$m form. For seven hours.)

I'm deeply suspicious of this.. given your history with bikinis and piano teachers.. i'm wondering why you feel you must find a photography studio with a piano in it. lol

[pianowolfi]

I only saw one. Most of the ponies are on the island of Yell.

Not many people go to the island of Yell as it is a little bland.

Here is a photo i took on a nice day.

Isn't this





A so much nicer perspective?

Is there anything else important in life?
(Piano I suppose, and just in case she sees this, The Wife and kids) 

P.S. I no longer have any bikes.

If there is, i have yet to find it.

Just off out to the Pub for a Hawaiian evening. 

Could not be bothered to put my Mohican up. 

You should have seen what the females were wearing 

[thalbergmad]

I couldn't post photos of other people. it's not morally ethical.

From the sounds of it, so are the pictures themselves...

Both hopefully

Whatever it is, he looks like he can play better than me. Perhaps he's been to Bar-Nivs camp. 

[ronde_des_sylphes]

He's a Highland cow.. and he's reading through Till Eulenspiegel 

[thalbergmad]

Like, i thought i was the only one silly enough to post pictures of soft toys.

Rebby, her sister and me, after a Tae Kwon Do Competition
(approx. 3 yrs. ago)

[imbetter]

post a picture of rebby from this year year.

[pianistimo]

very beautiful family.  don't you think - despite everything that sometimes happens - that family is the best!  i really do.  nobody is perfect.  everybody's family has something truly awfully dysfunctional - but despite it all - it's a really big learning experience.  and makes you see the bigger picture of it all.  rebby is very pretty.

i'm learning to just make the best of each day.  some days go better than others.  some days you feel like a really great parent.  and other days - dismal.  but, kids are like that too - they need space to learn and grow and not to be critiqued for everything.  it hit me the most watching this show last night - where these children were in a dance competition to win a flat screen tv.  one mom just gave occasional cheers to her daughter and let her be herself (not caring if she won) - the other mom's were like knats or something - stuck right in their kids faces telling them to have better attitudes and to try harder and thinking that they were encouraging them by pointing out each and every fault.  then, i think about my son who's 17 going on 18 - and i think - why?  why do i worry.  he's really a great kid.  he'll be into schoolwork someday.  he's not his sister.  he doesn't like paperwork.  but outside - he can do most anything. and he's really strong.  maybe guys weren't meant to push paper.
