oh trouble, let me be




today was a day. i thought i lost both my wireless remotes for my camera (i take all my own photos, so this makes it much much easier for me), but i lit'rally, just found it. under my pillow. wireless remote fairy. i still placed an order for another one (the off brands are SO CHEAP, seriously $4), JUST IN CASE. i'm going to find some way to put one in my camera strap, maybe make it a little pocket. 
i've been anxiously awaiting this weekend since last week. i've got some possible news on the horizon, because things are happening! (multiple job interviews, GIVEAWAYS) 
so i tried to take these photos by focusing on an object, removing said object, then taking a photo. worked like a charm. a very. very. slow charm. i gave up after taking 5 photos. then was late for class. 
i also attempted to use hot rollers to curl my hair. they held pretty well, but it's going to take some practice. i remember using them in junior high before the dances where i'd anxiously await a boy to ask me to slow dance to *nsync or brian mcknight.

  3. Very clever idea for the remote pocket! I also lose mine A LOT and it's very frustrating. I have to remind myself to always throw it back into my camera bag when I'm done.. never happens. lol

  4. I'm going to say the same thing I just did on Tumblr: I LOVE THIS OUTFIT SO MUCH! OMG. Seriously. And, ugh, I've tried taking photos that way before and it is so horribly slow. And I sometimes forget to put a marker where the object was and have to do it again. I still need to buy a remote. Ha.

  5. oh god the slow dances dont remind me... haha. your hair looks great though & those tights are darling. i had no idea remotes could be so cheap. maybe i should have invested in one, although using a tripod in general drives me crazy.

  8. gah you're so lucky that your camera works with a remote!! Mine doesn't so I have to set it to take multiple photos and then run back and forth to see if the photos even turned out. 9 times out of 10 they don't :*( womp womp

  10. Haha, I only got a camera remote about a month ago. Taking photos without one is a PAIN! Good luck with the job interviews :O
    Your hair looks fab, so shiny!
