Where to begin?

When I feel so full (as I do now) of stories and experiences, I don't know how to begin--to start a subject that if allowed free reign could go on for days. For there are days worth of experiences that have not been shared. I have been on a three day trip to be exact. I walked in Corinth, dove and swam at Monemvasia, climbed a mountain at Sparta, and even spent some time in Olympia. Trying to express in some small way a piece of my experiences just reminds me of how little we will ever know about anyone. Each of us is so complex and so full of unique experiences that to fully grasp the other would take a lifetime. It's a rather frightening thought really and marvelous too in it's own way. Considering all of our differences and inability to properly communicate it is a wonder we can form friendships at all...My pictures have no particular order and many of them are not my favorites of myself, but sometimes one must make do...P.S. My camera has suffered a number of illtreatments lately and is on it's way out (no more shutter...), so if some of the images have strange effects this is probably why.

  • I have some pictures to share from my first official day in Athens. We went to an area called Syntagma Square (correct me if I don't spell something correctly!) which has a number of shops and some good places to eat. My first official and completely delicious gyros in Greece was consumed here. I can still feel the party in my mouth...

  • Nasha has been swept away by seasonal bliss. Between sparkling white grounds coated in a fine crystalline dust and twinkling, colorful lights the world seems transformed into some fairytale vistage of beauty. Being a very young Labbit, this is her first Christmas and her first snow. Although Christmas day is still many days away, putting Nasha to bed every night is a burden.
  • I should be throwing some last things into my suitcase to prepare for a friend who is driving me to the airport in 20 minutes. Yikes! But like a true addict, I just wanted to throw one post out before I depart. These pictures were taken at the community garden on my campus. Students choose what to plant and then work in it year round. Now our cafeteria actually purchases some of their produce.
  • I am usually a very steadfast individual, however I must confess to a fickle heart. My loves and passions (in regards to accessories) are quite frequent and fleeting. In this moment, it is quite easy to name the love of my life: a new pair of black shoes that lace at the ankle to embrace my foot. With a firm grasp clasp me tight and I feel my feet rise off the ground.
  • I went up for another bit of hike on "the mountain" (Mt. Rainier) since my sister has come to visit us here for a little while. We had gloriously perfect weather and the sky was brilliant, so this time around we could see the peak while on our walks. I really enjoy the variety of scenery you can see: meadows filled with wildflowers, canyons, waterfalls, rocky peaks, etc.
  • We went on a trip to the Acropolis and it was majestic...majestic is the word I keep coming back to in reference to many of the sites I see here.
  • Some of my style icons aren't icons for their personal style, but rather costumes and characters they assumed while on screen. A prime example of this is Judy Garland. Honestly, her off-screen persona holds little interest to me, but who is not still captivated by the sparkly, red shoes she wore as Dorothy?
  • I have been borrowing my father's tripod lately. The tripod was bought (along with a 35 mm camera I am also in the habit of using) several years before I was born. It's rather fascinating to use a tool that is older than I am...
  • I safely made it to my parents in Washington State yesterday--the easiest flight day I've ever had. Predictably, I woke up this morning to the sound of rain and big band music (it was quite disorientating).
  • I'm back to my hair fancies addiction. Winter really offers the oppurtunity to express your whismy on your legs and your head. Layered and unique stockings transform limbs into quirky storybook characters with personalities all their own. While the necessity to stay warm has led to numerous creations for the head; intent upon more than just locking your body heat in.
  • I have been in a strange mood for several days. It's a fine mood; I'm all giddy and giggly, but it is quite unusual for me. Getting recognized in a chocolate shop as a frequent visitor, watching your roommates have a battle with Disney songs, and reading entire books in bookstores without buying any might do that to a person...
