My name is Angelina, though most call me Angel. I'm a 24 year old half Filipina and African American woman.

I am married to my lovely husband whom I've been with for nearly 3 years. I currently work at home as a Corporate Compliance Specialist and while it may not be my dream job, I am working through my degree so I can eventually have it.

I live in Arizona, though I wish I lived someplace more scenic. I own 4 crazy cats, 2 very lovely dogs, 2 carpet sharks (or ferrets), an XPS computer, Macbook, pink laptop, and a Canon EOS 500D with a couple of lenses and not much more.



I don't let just anyone close to me.

For those who first meet me, I can come off as a stuck up bitch.

There are very few people I hold in my heart. If you're one of them you're damn lucky, so don't fuck it up.

People tend to hate me before becoming a good friend.

I say what I mean & I mean what I say.

I will not sugarcoat. If you can't handle the truth, don't fucking ask.

Words are my weapons of mass destruction.

When I'm a friend, I'm a friend for life-- unless of course you do something to fuck that up.

Walking away isn't easy for me.

If I walk away it means you've committed an act I won't ever forget or forgive.

Depending on the circumstance, I believe in second chances.

I believe in soulmates.

I distrust everyone I meet until they give me a reason to trust them.

I believe everything happens for a reason.

My biggest strength also happens to be my biggest weakness.

I'm what most would consider a geek.

I really dislike labeling people (i.e best friend), so if you're lucky enough to be labeled it means you're very, very special to me.

I'm living proof that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

I have decided to redo my entire flickr and focus more heavily on photography/projects. I have let it fall to the wayside, but I want to pick it up again and become more focused on harnessing my skills.

Please leave comments:
Opinions, constructive critiques, or just appreciation is very much welcome. Teach me and help me grow as photographer. On the other hand, if you don't like the photo just don't comment at all, unless you have something constructive to add. Otherwise if it's on the stream, it means it is exactly how I intended it to turn out. Thanks.
