About Me

My photo
I'm Alyx. I don't drink, smoke, do drugs, or have sex. I'm in a committed long distance relationship. I majored in fine arts at an art high school in NC. I now live in Sarasota, FL and major in photography. I take photos because I love making people feel beautiful. All my self portraits are taken in my bathroom. I don't claim to know a lot about photography, but I want to learn and that's what matters.

College.

Two weeks in, and I can safely say that these have already been the best days of my life. Something about the new Floridian air has made me able to breathe again.

I see everything with more of an open mind now. I look at things for a longer time, and think about them harder. I appreciate everything that happens around me, and all the people I meet - even if they don't think of me in the same way.

I've learned to let my guard down every once in a while and listen to what people are telling me. I've learned what it feels like to be at the bottom, with nowhere to go but up. I've learned that intimidation is my greatest enemy, but that we're all here for the same reason. I've learned to loosen up and just live my life the way it should be lived. I've learned to miss people and memories more genuinely. I've learned to love people and new experiences more affectionately.

And for once in my life, I feel free.
