 “We are well advised to keep on nodding terms with the people we used to be, whether we find them attractive company or not. Otherwise they turn up unannounced and surprise us, come hammering on the mind's door at 4am of a bad night and demand to know who deserted them, who betrayed them, who is going to make amends. We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget.”
– Joan Didion

I am not good with photoshop, but I recently learned the basics...hence my first collage. It's barely a collage actually - more like a few photos configured in one file. But for me, it's a collage.

Sorry for the lack of posts. I was busy with finals but now I'm on break for a few weeks and I plan on posting more frequently. A special thank you to my followers who continue to bear with me and my less than consistent posting. Hope everyone's December is off to a great start!
