I use Photoshop and I get the same results :) <br /> <br />
Today, my friend Keita and I took the liberty to test and work out the kinks of this, and I have to say, I'm liking the results and I will probably want to do every single Instagram as a "living photo" hehehe...

I shot my friend <a href="http://twitter.com/hauzofsam">Sam S.</a> today downtown and it turned out to be a much longer shoot than I expected, but we got some good results from it! I met him a couple months back at the LA open call for America's Next Top Model cycle 20 where we waited 12 hours to be seen!! :O Well we both didn't make it, but that was probably for the better! Anyway, I almost stepped in human poop while shooting these pics!

So lately I've really gotten into photography and here are some results from my shoot with my friend <a href="http://instagram.com/ktmgm" target="_blank">Keita M.</a> I'm hoping to improve some more and I have a couple more shoots scheduled coming up with some of my other friends!

This red shorts are the last of the items I got from my JCPenney shopping trip. $12 and they look good ;) <br />
<br />
It's a pretty simple look, which is something I like, especially for spring and summer time. <br />
<br />
That's really all I have to say about this look, except I really love this photo taken by <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Law K. </a>alittlebitaznhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01866420231488629131noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8650028127899493394.post-75302403486061462013-03-17T15:50:00.003-07:002013-03-17T16:14:35.798-07:00Polka dots<div align="center">

So my friend keeps telling me how late the US is on fashion trends, because he bought all this polka dotted stuff in Japan years ago. It's probably true, but I'm really digging this shirt.<br />
<br />
I got it pretty cheap at JCP, same with the Levi's jeans. I never really shopped there before, but now they're having some really cute stuff at good prices. I just bought a pair of red shorts that I'll be posting later.<br />
<br />
The fit of the shirt leaves something to be desired, it's a little bit too long and too loose for my tastes, especially for a size small. But I can always get that tailored later on ;) The material isn't the best, but neither is the stuff you find at Forever 21, the difference is JCP is way cheaper haha<br />

I decided to go really simple for this outfit of the day yesterday. I had just bought this shirt for only $5 at JCPenney, and what I really like about it is its sleeves are tight around my arms, and it fits nicely around my chest, but it's not super skin-tight around the rest of my torso.
The chinos I actually got for free from a friend when they had a buy-one-get-one-free deal during the holidays, and now they're one of my favorite clothing items to wear.
I also got my new Oxfords from JCPenney for only $50, they're really nice, comfortable, and look amazing! I love that the soles are a nice bright orange color, it gives it a little bit of spice. And I think it's really OK, since the majority of the outfit is in the same color-family so it doesn't overwhelm the eyes with too much color.
I added in my gold earrings, one of my favorites, for a nice bright finishing touch.

Hooray for <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence</a> and I for discovering this little alley in Pasadena! He's the best :) And we didn't even have any distractions either, it was beautiful! I love how it's been getting colder now! I've been waiting to wear my sweaters. Beanie courtesy of <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence</a>!<br /><br />
For this look, I wanted something a little less clean-cut, but not too far from what I usually wear. So I pulled out my cardigan, and graphic T, and took <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence's</a> beanie from him hehe<br /><br />

Another good photoshoot yesterday and a great day altogether! Had lots of fun with <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence</a> as always :) But one of the things that bugged me the most about this photo shoot, and other street shoots that we do is how people keep whispering, making faces, or shouting profanities at us, especially considering it's LA where there are constantly filming and photo shoots taking place. Of course, we're amateurs when it comes to photography, and we're just doing it for fun, but it's completely unnecessary for people to be acting so rudely around us :-/
<br />
<br />
That aside, I think it was a really good shoot. I still need to improve my photography skills, as well as my modeling skills. Even though I'm not seriously pursuing modeling or photography, I think it would be a really nice thing to have experience at, and to have a good grasp of knowledge at both. Always trying to improve :)<br /> <br />
For this look, I really wanted to go simple. I opted for a cool graphic t-shirt, scarf, some skinny jeans, and <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence's</a> boots haha I've wanted some cool hip boots for a while now, but I don't have the money to buy a nice pair. I've seen the style a lot nowadays at H&M and Urban Outfitters, as well as fashion ads, so I really wanted to have a go at it.

Seems like the only thing I'm not focusing on is school... Nevertheless, I have started posting on LOOKBOOK.nu again thanks to <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence K.</a> for re-sparking my interest by doing fun photo shoots with me. We're just a bunch of pseudo-models!<br />
<br />
In my old looks, I would name each post after a song lyric, but I've now decided to switch it up and name the looks through my mood, my random thoughts, and inspirations. I've also re-vamped by Blogspot and Tumblr, themed after one of the photo shoots I did with <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence K.</a> I'm looking forward to posting more in the upcoming months!<br />
<br />
On a side note, Halloween is coming up and I'm very excited about that! I'm hoping I'll get to go on a Haunted Hayride or a corn maze, seeing as I've never been to either. Maybe I'll dress up as something cool this year.alittlebitaznhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01866420231488629131noreply@blogger.com0Riverside Apartment33.9840945 -117.337068333.9824485 -117.3395358 33.9857405 -117.3346008tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8650028127899493394.post-33430189471222638772012-10-15T23:12:00.000-07:002012-10-16T04:50:19.671-07:00Astro Chimp in the sky<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Did another shoot with the amazing <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence K.</a> the other day, this was super fun! Our friend Jonathan decided to drop by and be creative director for the shoot as well. This was actually quite a quick shoot because Lawrence needed to rush to class, so we shot both him and myself in about 30 minutes! Here's a sneak peek at <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence's</a> pics, this one is my favorite: </div>

<a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence</a> and I decided to have a little photo shoot an show off our senses of style, and eventually I decided to start posting on my LookBook again, and <a href="http://www.lookbook.nu/lalatyme">Lawrence</a> has created one as well :) We need a better camera to create more depth in our pictures, but this was a super fun shoot and this may become a weekly thing. Hopefully next time, more friends will be able to join us!</div>

The amount of time I spend on things I really don't care about is astonishing when compared to the amount of things that I would like to be doing with my life. I keep saying "I'm too busy to do this, I'm too busy to do that..." But what am I really busy with? It seems like I am just squandering my time; I'm standing still in the middle of the road when I should be running, chasing, towards what truly inspires me.
<br />
<br />
<br />
There are just so many distractions keeping my from reaching my ultimate goal. I see a fork in the road, and I am standing still, not knowing what to do. Which path do I take when this fork has 5 prongs? And all the while I'm complaining about my "misfortunes," I could actually be making a choice and pursue what really drives my passion. But why am I just standing still? Is it because I'm afraid what lies beyond? Am I afraid of failing? Maybe because if I put my heart and soul into something, only to crash and burn, it would be too much for me to handle. Perhaps just making an excuse and saying, "I'm too busy," makes it easier to bear.alittlebitaznhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01866420231488629131noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8650028127899493394.post-38196537597142911482011-10-04T00:49:00.000-07:002012-10-16T04:50:54.924-07:00The innocence of what you are is what I want<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Sometimes we all dwell a little too much on the negative things that are thrust upon us. At times, I tend to feel like a loser, like I can't do anything right. I get frustrated thinking about what could have been, but wasn't. But it's in those moments that I need to remind myself of how lucky I really am. I have wonderful friends who support me, and a wonderful family that has always been there for me.<br />
<br />
Life is not as bad as you think.<br />
<br />
College just started up for me not too long ago. I'm taking 3 courses with labs: Biology, Organic Chemistry, and Physics. This is going to be a pretty tough quarter. Unfortunately I have a habit of procrastinating a lot, which always gets me into trouble because I never finish what I need to do on time... Oh well, I just need to work a bit harder to resist my urges of browsing the internet.<br />

As far as my career in the entertainment industry goes, I haven't booked anything theatrical since last year... This kind of bums me out, considering how many auditions I've gotten. And I've been so close to getting the part, too! So many times on so many different parts! Hopefully the right part will come for me soon. In the meantime, I've been able to book a few print jobs here and there. I was able to find my hand (just my hand) recently while browsing the grocery store. They gave me a digital manicure LOL<br />

This is a pretty simple look. It seemed better in the mirror than it did on camera though lol
I got the t-shirt from a To Write Love On Her Arms event at UCRiverside last year. I got the suspenders from a Halloween costume I got last year as a lumberjack :T
<br />
<br />
And yes, I like to wear suspenders AND belts at the same time hahaha and... no shoesalittlebitaznhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01866420231488629131noreply@blogger.com0
