FO TOE S A



YOU BETTA WORK!

Meet Nikki
She sings. She dances. She'll make you laugh at just about anything that comes out of her mouth. She's is completely comfortable in her own skin. I  chose Nikki for my photo essay because she has been a friend of mine since my freshmen year of college. Not only is she a fantastic entertainer, but an incedible person. When I met Nikki I realized that drag queens are outstanding examples of feminine power and beauty.
My fascination for drag queens is mostly due to the air of confidence that surrounds them. When they walk, they hold their head high and dare the world to try to put them down. I admire their self-assurance and comfort in their own skin. They are beautiful because they feel beautiful, and that is something every woman should strive for.


Drag queens are fabulous because of their ability to be themselves without "being themselves." Their alter egos are a stronger, fiercer version of their regular selves. The facial expressions in the photo are quite evident of confidence and security within her skin. 
The best part of drag, is watching the performance. There's nothing quite like watching a man get up on stage and work it better than any woman in the room. Nikki was dancing to teeth by Lady Gaga when this photo was taken, and she impressed everyone in the house.People then proceed to stuff dollar bills into her costume as she danced through the audience.



                                               
if you love me, you'll...

Give me companionship, affection, and freedom.

Engage with me in stimulating conversation and laughter.

Appreciate my grand visions and listen to my stories.

Don't try to change my style.

Accept me the way I am.

Be responsible for youself.

I dislike clingy or needy people.

Don't tell me what to do

Watching the formation process is an experience tht is worth watching. I find it so interesting that a man can transform himself into a beautiful woman. I have to admit, some drag that I have see look better then laf the ladies I see walking down the street.

I chose this photo because this is a bi gender photo. As diplayed there is half Tyler and Nikki. While staring at this photo I found it hard to believe that it didn't look photoshopped.
Nikki feeling good in her skin

This picture was taken outside of a radio station.  Nikki won a discography of GAGA that night. She was ecstatic.

This is Tyler after a hard night of milagro tequila.
A few hours later Nikki picked Tyler right up off his feet for a night out on the town. 
MMM SUBS!



Nikki has massive sex appeal wherever she goes. She loves to lay around the house and look glamorous.

 There's nothing better than going out with one of the best dancers in the 412.

NUUZ!

CUT THROAT BUGETS
An overwhelming show of support  Edinboro campus united students and faculty while they rallied there over millions of dollars of proposed state funding cuts. Edinboro would have to eliminate a number of programs, which would put students’ degrees at risk, and tuition rates would go up 33%. These photos captured the emotion of just how intense they felt about Corbetts  possible decision making. 

Enough Stated.






Is it?


"Cut bitches not budgets"

"Cut Say What?

One of a kind

Ironic

Second Life?
I chose this picture because I love Willow trees and I felt like this is something I would do in real life.

I chose this photo because I thought it was ridiculous.

Yup..just hanging out.


I encountered a monkey man.

Then he had to go #1.

ready.....?BREAK!

There's nothing sweeter than the feeling of wam winter sun beaming acrossed your face while your driving in 5th gear acossed the USA. This trip was designed soley for the purpose of getting away from everyone both Dan (my boyfriend) and me knew and for a chance to dive into an unamiliar place. Denver Colorado was our destination. We stuffed our suitcases and shoved everything we could in the fire engine red GTI, stocked up on snacks and juicy juice, charged the camera, busted out the maps and got ready for our journey. 1,436 Miles of laughs, life stories, and a beautiful memoir.

We were really excited to cross the Colorado border...clearly.

What's better than snowboarding at May Jane Ski Resort?
That's right....nothing.

BACK COUNTRY!

Love

More Driving...on our way to Boulder Co.

Red Rocks, one of the most beautiful places to hear  live music.

Yep, we're a little materialistic but only in good taste.

Exceptional Views.

We met up with Chef Jamey Fader. Chef of Lola.
He let us crash in his condo. He's a bamf.

Western Sunsets



When we returned, we realized though we do now live in one of the best places on earth, there's beauty eveywhere. We also realized its possible to fall in love more than once.
