It takes an amateur to create a piece of art that deserves applause and laughter. It takes a true talented artist to render complete silence and make someone think.

Cotton Candy Clouds

My favorite pieces of art are those that becomes more fictional the more you view and process. The first thing that you see when looking at this picture is a girl with cotton candy, a realistic idea. Next, you see a large pink tornado/cloud occurrence, which translates this picture into fictional. Perhaps this girl is running from the tornado in fear. Maybe she's running in happiness because the tornado supplies her with cotton candy. We will never know the true meaning of this picture, and that is the essence of excellence.

Hallway Leviation Photography

The first thing you notice in this picture is a girl on a wall. The first thing I look at is her extremities (hands, feet) to find an explanation for how she is hanging on the wall. There are no ledges, and adhesives have been ruled out by logic, so we can conclude it is fictional. On the ground there is a fish tank shattered and a fish flopping around next to it. Perhaps the girl dropped the fish tank and jumped onto the wall in fear of being cut by glass. Another piece of this picture is the strange dark passage that the girl's head is turned to. She might see something coming, feared it, and hopped onto the wall. Again, we will never be able to depict what is really happening in this picture. You can think what you want about the story behind it, but you may never know the truth.

Balloon Bouquet Shadow

First thing noticed is the silhouette of a girl with balloons on the wall. You look down to see the shadows of her two feet meeting the shadows of a middle aged woman walking by. This isn't fictional, as this may happen in real life. Then again, the sun must be in the perfect spot so that the shadow of her body is lost within the silhouette of the girl on the wall, but it is possible. In my opinion, this image represents the woman's inner child wanting to break free.

What do you think these three pictures represent?

Today I got braces.

The braces really aren’t what bothers me the most. What bothers me the most are these:

These are called turbos and go on the back of your two front teeth. They’re supposed to help fix over-bite. Mine are extremely big. I can’t chew whatsoever, and I have a lisp now. Everything I eat has to be soft. The pain is coming right now, so I should stop typing.
