    "I lalalovee Keely!
    teheheh :)

    She is like this amazing super awesome photographer. I found her photostream and was like " Woah I want to find this girl and steal her skillzz fo sho" hahaha no but really. She is super talented and not to mention gorgeous. And definitely not fat at all, even though shes like " Im fat blah blah blah" Pahlease. Even though Keely is always down on herself saying that she can't be conceptual. I KNOW that she is. I mean look at her photostream. And our idea we came up with for our collab. Yeah, please. No one will be able to touch us. Ahaha, ok maybe me. But Keely defintiely not. Im so glad to be lucky enough to have Keely look at my work, and tell me what she thinks of it. Even if she does say " yeah no offense but that looks fake" haha.
    But seriously.
    this girl is Ahmazing, and I will probably edit this a thousand times because of all the good things I will find to say about her.

    :D

    EDIT NUMERO UNO ( AUG 9TH)- tehehehe.

    hi, mom. I loveeeeeeee you!
    so you edited my testimonial and so i was like " hey i should edit hers , too" except when I came to see what I had originally wrote I was like " Wow thats ALOT of backspacing and words to waste" So now im sitting here writing MORE onto your testimonial. Ok SOOO basically. I had no idea how sweet you were! I love our CONVOsations, especially when we both are mad together. :P And I still hate your amazing photography skills. They put mine to shame. If you haven't noticed thats why I ask for your opinion every time I take a picture! Because you are my favorite and I know you will give me an honest opinion.

    Im lucky to call you my friend ( mom) :P And even luckier that you grace your presence on my photostream! I cant wait till our super fun photoshoot in the fall!

    Love,
    your daughter- Liz

I haven't laughed really hard in a long time, and thats because we never talk :( But chyeahhh I still have not got to meet you, sadly. I met Ian before you?!?!?!? How did that happen? Well thats ok because im going to come see you for sure in da summerz since I have a working tire now. hehehe But seriously I love you so much! I always know I can count on you to talk to and get advice from.

    Ian says we feed off eachother or somethins? Because we always text/call eachother when we are doing sketchy things. Hahahaha but yes, I always love those texts from you.

    she is such a gorgeous person with a massive talent for photography.

    her choice of processing, the composition, and lighting in her shots are always completely perfect.
    i'm in awe of what she has to offer to flickr.

    anyway, i've always enjoyed her photography right from the start. she's creative by nature, and has so much potential as an artist it's almost scary.

    don't ever stop keels....and if you do, make sure to try again. follow your heart, and everything will work out the way it should."

    "Alrighty Keely.

    [YESSS I spelled your name right! hehehe]

    So Keely is pretty fantastic. She makes people chickens in exchange for letters. She has an Xti. She just got a new puppy [WHICH SHE NEEDS TO UPLOAD PICTURES OF AHEMAHEM]. She likes taking awesome self portraits of herself, and I just WISH I had such a prettyface as she. ALAS. She is good at making friends and scoring free pro accounts / cameras. She makes us all jealous, although I don't really know who the rest of "us" are besides me.... but there must be other people out there that she makes jealous. HOKAY. I WRITE

    A STOOOOOOORY!

    This is the story of a girl named Bread. She was a sweet girl, but she was a little odd. Every day to school she wore brightly coloured overalls [the legs were short or long, depending on the weather] that coordinated with the colours of the rainbow. On monday she wore red overalls, on tuesday she wore orange overalls, on wednesday she wore yellow overalls, on thursday she wore green overalls, on FRIDAY she wore blue overalls, on SATURDAY she wore PURPLE overalls, and on SUNDAY she wore WHITE overalls to church. For whatever colour overalls she wore, she always wore the complimentary colour t-shirt [the sleeves changed length depending on the weather] underneath. I won't go into the details. Just figure it out by yourself. She also wore 5 pigtails in a circle around her head. She even wore them when she was sleeping, so she had a permanant kink where they were placed.

    Bread got teased a lot for her peculiar looks. She was called "Skittles Face!" and "Alien Hair!" and suchlike. But Bread didn't let that bother her OH NO. She was a strong little girl and made her mommy proud. She went to Harvard to study law, and EVERYONE took her seriously, despite her outfits. She became a lawer and won every case she presented. She married a man named Jam Toast, so when people addressed letters to them, it was to Jam and Bread Toast. They lived until they were 407.2938532. THE END

    I think I need to work on my endings a little more....

    I hope you liked that darling. But indeed folks, Keely is an awesome person to know. :D

    CHEERS!
