Updates And A Featured Artist

Journal Entry: Mon Aug 11, 2008, 5:36 PM

Hey all of you guys! How have all of you been doing? So far I have had a great lazy old summer and, in the past week I've done a good job of catching up on my flooded inbox. I've replied to all of my comments, gone through my deviantWATCH, and started going through my somewhat 4,200+ favorites. (Some of which start as far back as July 2007 :blush:) I now, in 3 days, have 2,800 left, so I'm getting there! Now, I realize I don't have to do this but I really really appreciate and care for all of your support (the comments especially always make me smile) and feel obligated too. :love: I wish I could post up photos from my vacation in Hawaii as well as Bryce canyon, Zion, and grand canyon because lets face it I've put up what-- 4 photos this year? Double :blush:. Unfortunately, my room is being remodeled so I cant use my computer :( Although as soon as I get it back I will try and post up at least 1 deviation a day. :]

Also, in about a week I am going to the amazing island of Kauai. And although we will not be taking a helicopter tour, hopefully if things plan out well my dad and I will be kayaking along side the legendary Na Pali Coast. I just cant wait, at all . If anybody has been there before I would love to hear of your adventures and favorite spots. I'm staying for 2 weeks, 1 on the North West side (by the airport) and one on the South (Poipu) :-)

While browsing through some photography I stumbled across this amazing new artist by the name of Pedro Gomes. All of his work has under 13 :+fav:'s and I for one think that we need to fix that.

Mind Blowing Huh?


By the way does anyone happen to know what sort of spider this is?
I saw it wondering around our rose patch.

Happy Belated 14th Birthday To Me!

Journal Entry: Thu May 8, 2008, 6:35 PM

Well my 14th birthday was on May 5! :) I got a red Zune 80, which is supper cool and I'm going ice skating in two days. The only bad thing is that I got sick after my birthday and had hoooorible migraines :( But I'm much better now.

I came home from Grand Canyon 2 weeks ago. It was so amazing I cant even describe it!

4/18-Friday, We got to Las Vegas and spent a night there

4/19- Saturday

We drove from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon. We stopped at the western side of Grand Canyon and even though that was beautiful it was nothing compared to the southern side. We got there at around 9pm and spent a night

4/20- Sunday

My dad, grandpa, and I got up at around 4:30am to go see the sunrise. It was absolutely beautiful, you haven't seen the Grand Canyon till you have seen it with your own eyes, but it was really cold and windy in the morning.

Then we went back ate breakfast and my mom, dad, grandpa, brother and I went further. We drove around the Grand Canyon until we got to Lake Powell. And then we went to tour the Antelope Canyon. It was so amazing to be in the Canyon, the walls are just amazingly sculpted. Then we went to horseshoe bend and then to Kanab, Utah to spend the night.

4/21- Monday

We went to Bryce Canyon National Park first. It was just out of this world! It looked like aliens sculpted it and it was just magnificent. We hiked to the bottom of it which was tiring but beautiful. Then we went to Zion National Canyon which was just amazing. My favorite of all the places I think. And I saw a pack of Emu's there! lol :giggle: and wild turkeys as well as deer.

Then we went back to Las Vegas for Tuesday and Wednesday to relax :)

I took a little over 2,000 pictures! So expect some new ones soon!

Wow! What an amazing feeling. I got my first Daily Deviation on "Flying at the Speed of Sound" :heart: Thank you guys so much for being so supportive of my work and to *KirlianCamera, who was kind enough to suggest it, (check out his gallery because his photographs are something to envy!) and the amazing ^SheTakesPics for featuring my photo! :)

I feel so proud and with all of your guys' great comments and compliments it makes me feel even better! I'm going to try and thank everyone of you personally for the favorites, but if I don't get around to it I would just like you to know, that I thank you greatly :)

I'm leaving for Baltimore tomorrow for Nationals so wish me luck!

Snow? In Washington? In March?

Journal Entry: Sat Mar 29, 2008, 11:40 PM

Wow...Its been snowing two days in a row actually here in Washington. And it's near April. I think its funny how it didn't snow once in february or the end of January, yet it snows at the end of March! :giggle: Interesting surprise what can I say?

Anyways, so I went through my whole devwatch! (which had about 15,000 deviations) Which is why I've been giving so much favorites lately! All of you guys have absolutely amazing work, each and every one of you :)

Also, about two weeks ago I went to Provo, Utah to dance at Nationals (ballroom dance) and I did really good. In Standard (the one with the long dresses lol) I got 4th place out of 21 couples and in Latin (the one with the shorter ones :P) I got 10th place out of 51 couples. That's really good especially since I dance in Youth Open Championship, where there are some amazing couples. I have some pictures from Standard but non really from Latin.



And I have some videos too! (These aren't the best dances but they are all I put up so far :giggle:)

Standard: [link] (viennese waltz)
Latin: [link] (Jive)


Also This week I'm going to Baltimore, Maryland from Thursday to Monday to dance again at Nationals! (There's 2 different organizations and each has its own)

And!!! Also April 18-23 I'm going to Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon! I cant wait to get some pictures, and see the Grand Canyon with my own eyes! :) Hope all of you are doing well as well! :)

Here are some recent artists whose work Ive been especially fond of.

OMFG what a great christmas present
its snowing in WASHINGTON! Really, really hard too! I hope it sticks so I can take pictures. Wow, this is awesome!



I hope that all of you are having a great holiday season and will be having a great start into the new year. I also hope that all of you got more snow than us Washingtonians did! :lol: We've only had 1 day of snow this whole winter season! :P I hope that all of you that do have snow are enjoying it though. It will be a miracle if it snowed again haha! Grrr...Mild climate!

I also apologize for not being very active here recently but I’ve been very busy with school. At least I’m getting really good grades, and finally have a solid A in Spanish! But, I will try to be move active, let’s just say that one of my new year’s resolutions will be to be more active! haha

Also I would like to thank all of you for the favorites! I have so much it will take me a long time to personally thank you all on your pages, but you know what, I will try! And if I will be unable to complete my wish, I would still like all of you to know I’m very grateful for all of your support.

Anyways, I’m wondering what you guys are all up to? I’d love to hear from you and what’s going in your life’s right now!


Happy Whatever!

:heart:Kseniya
