A Beautiful Sunset
January 14, 2017
Tonight I watched the sunset from the Santa Monica pier. The past week has been really rainy, but it cleared up today to leave us with a gorgeous view. I could see clear across the bay to Catalina Island and beyond. The pier was jam packed at sunset, yet strangely quiet. Everyone was mesmerized by the orange sun sinking into the navy blue water and the only sound was a violinist performing a hauntingly beautiful tune. I felt a sense of camaraderie with the crowd, as if we were all silently asking each other, “How did we get so lucky to live in a place like this?”
I hope you are able find beauty around you this long weekend friends. Have a good one.
On Saturday night, it seemed like half the school gathered on the Malibu Pier for photos before heading off to their respective sorority dances. While I’m no longer in a sorority, I went to take pictures of my many beautified friends and their dates! I was the press for the event, if you will. The sun was just sinking below the waterline and I was desperate to get in as many shots as I could before it disappeared completely. Below are just a few if you’d like to see!
^What a beaut
^Coincidence that they both wore purple dresses and black chokers? I think sister telepathy is more like it
^I was a thorn among roses, as they say
^Didn’t get the serious memo…
^Dear friends from Heidelberg Meredith and Alli!
Hope everyone had fun at their respective dances!
This place I get to call home for four years is a stunner. Also, not sure why these photos are so grainy, must be the file size or camera settings. But you get the idea ;p
Hey there friends! I’m sorry it’s been a bit quieter around here this week- my life definitely hasn’t been quiet, that’s for sure! There are seasons where school is all consuming, and others where I have a bit more time on my hands to pursue my passions, like this blog. Hopefully I will have a bit more breathing room next week to whip up some killer posts! In the meantime, enjoy these photos I took last night when I should have been studying :p
What are your plans for the weekend? Mine include pumpkin carving, a halloween party at which I will be dressed as Little Red Ridding Hood, and sleep. Lots and lots of sleep. I’ll meet you back here on Monday before we know it!
Hello friends, I hope you are enjoying a slow Saturday morning, sipping coffee and watching cartoons (do people still do that? I hope they do)! I’m taking my sweet time this weekend after a crazy busy week of school, work and rushing for a sorority!
