Yesterday we went to Disneyland with our friends. We had such a fun adventure. This trip was my most unique visit to date. We rode just a handful of rides but completely enjoyed the Christmas spirit that wrapped 'round about us. New experiences for me:
Captain Jack Sparrow's presence in the Pirates of the Caribbean
Ice Cream at the sweet shoppe
Dinner at the Blue Bayou Cafe!! Amazing food and atmosphere.
Space Blasters {I beat Bunnie!}
Safari Boat Ride
Tom Sawyers' Island
Experiencing the wonder with my bunnie
The few pictures I took are barely indicative of Disneyland. But, in truth I was too busy eating and laughing to take my regular photo shoot liberties! Post Script: Doesn't Rachel look beautiful with her shaved head? She is a beautiful, brave woman!
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary a winner and loser are defined as such;
winner
one that is successful especially through praiseworthy ability and hard work
a victor especially in games or sports
one that wins admiration
loser
a person or thing that loses especially or consistently
a person who is incompetent or unable to succeed; also: doomed to fail or disappoint
I'm feeling a wee bit loser-ish this evening. This year has been capitulated by the secondary definition. I feel uneasy with my constancy in losing. The definition of insanity is repeating the same actions over again and expecting a different result. Am I lacking sanity? Am I the epitome of a loser, "doomed to fail or disappoint?" This is rhetorical of course, but completely and utterly fascinating. I've always believed the cliche "slow and steady wins the race." Perhaps that's something we tell little Suzy while patting her on the head before sending her to bed.
This weekend past I had a friend with a big audition the next day. I said to her, "Okay, you better wear your power color." To which she replied, "what's that?" Each of us have colors that seem to "pop" against our skin and hair. It's that color that everyone tells you they love on you, every single time you wear it. In my opinion wearing a color that's unattractive is equally deplorable as wearing clothes that are ill fitting and wrong for one's body type.
Determining power colors:
There are four seasons that your skin tones can pull from:
1.Spring-Usually have golden undertones in skin, peachy, or creamy white. Hair is usually strawberry, or blonde, you have freckles and eyes are blue or green.
2.Summer-Blue or pink undertones, skin is pale or pinkish, usually blondes or brunettes with light colored eyes.
3.Fall-Golden undertones in skin, most redheads are falls along with brunettes with hazel eyes.
4.Winter-Usually have blue or pink undertones, most Asians and African Americans or brunettes with brown eyes.
I hope that by recognizing your power colors it will aid you in feeling like the glamorous, beautiful creature that you are. Now that you know how to dress your body type, and have a knowledge of what colors flatter your skins tone; You can enjoy shopping with a new found sense of ease and purpose!

My favorite piece of art was from an exhibition called "In Captivity." I was curious about a globe-esque sphere that I spied from across the room. I crossed the path while dodging a slew of misfit spectators to look at the object further. "What's so special about this?" I thought. Then I looked closer. Upon my inspection: I found a live lady bug colony! I adore lady bugs. Isn't that clever? Absolutely brilliant. Expect the unexpected in Los Angeles.
