Pro-Sex Runway

This is why I love the {edit:} Chinese. (Whatever, I still love the Japanese. Crap, I love all Asians.)

Models parade in outfits made of condoms during a fashion show at the 4th China Reproductive Health New Technologies & Products Expo in Beijing July 11, 2007. Condoms of all shapes and sizes were used to make dresses, hats, and even lollipops. Models fought through extravagant soap bubble special effects to show off tight-fitting wedding gowns, scaly-looking evening dresses, outrageous bikinis and other garments made entirely of condoms. The show was held at the Fourth China Reproductive Health New Technologies and Products Expo and organized by China 's largest condom manufacturer, Guilin Latex Factory, to promote the use of condoms in the fight against HIV/AIDS. It also marked World Population Day, organized annually by the U.N. Population Fund

In CT sweating out a fever



So, I came home yesterday to help my dad take care of my mama who just had surgery this week....and I end up waking up this morning completely sick (I felt perfectly fine the day before). I had a fever, the chills, sweating, the aches, sore throat, everything. I'm just praying I dont end up nauseous. I wanted so bad to just keep my mom company and i couldn't, pretty much, be in the same room as her. Now my dad ended up taking care of us both. (I love my pops). I just feel so bad now. I hope they don't get sick because of me.

Oof,

Delaytion

Please be patient....I'll have a new site coming soon, therefore the .com address is down. Like I said, just remember this address (http://theselimbshavewings.blogspot.com) and you'll be cool to catch up on my blog. This whole process of creating a new site may take a while so bare with me.

All pictures are down, and I apologize for that. I'm switching hosts so I hope everything transfers okay. Pictures from the past week or more probably won't go up until I fix everything...sorry for the delay! In the end, it'll all be worth it cause I have a new camera and many new adventures to document.

Love always,
your lady .com

Is it really true?

Sooooo...bout 1.5 times a years on average, it's been, jiscilla.com undergoes a major change. Now, don't forget, I've been doing this since the year 2000, so you imagine what I started with (many rolls of film, a scanner, and remember geocities?) Anyways, yesterday, I took the plunge. I'm still sick to my stomach by it, but stoked out my mind at the same time...I bought my camera (a slightly earlier version, but still just as beautiful with 99% the same features and quality). Enough talking about it, I had to do it. I bought the Canon EOS 30D (saved a pretty penny from buying the 40D and spent it on more necessary accessories like a top-of-the-line flash). Btw, shhhhhh, don't tell my parents...they would kill me if they knew I spent this much money. I figure that, later down the road, this will be a huge investment for showcasing the best years of my life. It will be well worth every penny...just when I figure out how to exactly pay it off. Now, I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet (dude, it's only been a day), but I will probably end up detaching my blog from my photos, so if you actually read what I think than keep theselimbshavewings.blogspot.com bookmarked in your brain. Obviously, I've always taken photos for my friends which I plan to continue (I actually wish I could calculate how much money I spent on getting "doubles" for my friends back in middle/high school/pre-internet days), but I also want to start taking pictures for myself. I took photography classes in high school, so it's been since then that I've got the chance to get creative (a simple point-and-shoot leaves little for the creativity). I am just so eager to learn about my new fancy friend. Anyway, I'm no NickyDigital, Brad Walsh, Bronques, or Cobra Snake (yet...hehe), but I hope you appreciate the upgrade as much as I do. Also, I'm not as much present in "the scene" as they are...I honestly just like taking pictures of my friends or anything interesting I see, so basically if you find yourself present in my life, then you will probably find yourself presented in my pictures. This will be my honest attempt at becoming what I've never had the legitimacy to say...a photographer. Wish me luck. This will be a new journey.

It ain't the cookin'

I think Christy's got the right idea...I love the city, but I hope I end up in the south.

All my life, I've had a love for New York City and it's polar opposite, the South. There's something about the southern accents, the southern hospitality, and their appreciation for the simple things in life. Their good nature, their irresistible charm...Ever since I got my own personal taste of the south, I realized I adore them. They are their own special breed, and I want one. I admit, I HATE country music (I'll accept Carrie Underwood if I'm in the right mood), but I love, love, love southern boys. Somebody find me one, please.


PS...I like the name Cohutta.

Mad about Nando!

This might not stay up very long, but I had to. Nando, I love you! At least we know he could be a backup singer for any of his artists.

If anyone were to know how me and my roommate spend our evenings, it basically involves polar bears. Seriously. Especially this little guy:



We spend way too many hours watching Polar Bear-athon.
