I am a photographer, who loves to write...I do both. I seem to be able to create art through Photography..and express what i feel through writing.

when i am behind the lens of my camera, i go to this place, where the outside world doesn't matter. i go to a place where i can focus on my work and focus on what i love. i freeze moments in time to save forever. i love what i do. i do what i love. i go to a place in my mind, and in my heart, where i can create art. welcome to a piece of that place.

FINALLY!

The day has come! (well almost) 
I leave tomorrow at 11am! Crazy-town! But I definitely feel ready, and that I just want to get the show on the road! I will definitely write an update while I am in the airport or waiting to take off or something, but for now, I will basically update you on how things are gonna be (I think).

I will have internet ONCE a week. I will most likely update my blog, and check /reply to e-mails.

The ONLY e-mail I will be checking while gone is going to be nicolemay.asl@gmail.com
SO- if you want to ask me questions, or send personal messages, please do it thru this e-mail. 

I may be on Facebook, I may not, I haven’t decided yet, so we will just see how fast the internet is, and how much time I will have in the internet cafe.

Safest bet- email me and check my blog.

LOVE YOU ALL. Thank you so much for all of the support and love.
Miss you al already, but excited for this adventure that is about to begin.

<3 Nicole

7 Weeks.

Well, I’m back from California- it’s really weird to think the next time I am home and in Palmdale I will have gone to Ghana. The next time I will be on a plane will be when I am leaving SLC.

It’s 7 weeks until I leave, that really isn’t much time. It is nuts. I got an email from our director today and our money is due April 1st. They are buying our plane tickets next week. Wow! It’s all coming together and becoming more real. I had such a fun time in California buying dresses for the trip and getting shots … Haha but it’s all worth it. This is one of my dreams to go to Africa and I get to cross it off my list in a few months. I can’t stop smiling.

“Pain comes in all forms: the small twinge, a bit of soreness, the random pain, the normal pains we live with every day. Then there’s the kind of pain we can’t ignore: a level of pain so great that it blocks out everything else, makes the rest of the world fade away until all we can think about is how much we hurt. How we manage our pain is up to us. Pain. We anesthetize, ride it out, embrace it, ignore it… And for some of us, the best way to manage pain is to just push through it.”
