I give myself very good advice,
But I very seldom follow it,
That explains the trouble that I'm always in,
Be patient, is very good advice,
But the waiting makes me curious,
And I'd love the change,
Should something strange begin,
Well I went along my merry way,
And I never stopped to reason,
I should have know there'd be a price to pay,
Someday...someday,
I give myself very good advice,
But I very seldom follow it,
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?

Thank you kind stranger. :)
This was taken roughly 3 years ago too. I've improved a lot since then!

geez didn't any of you guys hear the term "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it all"? Constructive criticism is what this site is about, not bashing someones work. Its a good photo and well taken (love the lighting).

I understand that KKK93 has other pictures in the magazine. Good job, that's wonderful, the pictures are great. However, my fellow naysayers and I would like to point out that we are judging this photograph, not any of the others. This is a pretty photograph, don't get me wrong, but it is a typical teen self-shot. This is my opinion on THIS picture, not any of her other pictures.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.

My question to Elizabeth is who uses Myspace anymore? All humor aside, it is not a bad photo--good quality, nice crop. Though I agree that it doesn't harness the meaning of life or anything like that, it is an enjoyable picture and you're really pretty (:

Adding on to KKK93's many comments defending her work, have you looked at her other works? She has had many pieces published in the magazine, not to mention a wonderful shot that won the Cover Art Contest. She's looked for origional, and she's found it. I think this shot is interesting and thought provoking. There are very few "origional" pieces of artwork in this world. Almost every idea someone comes up with, someone has had the identical idea beforehand. It is the unique way that the artist makes the art theirs is what makes it unique.

Hey katykewlkat!

Um, okay. "We'll just have to let that shame eat them up inside," was a little harsh. I think that this is a good picture, and I have read a lot of the comments on this pic, and I know that this picture is not your favorite, but good for you for being voted for top image. Your work is beautiful. I literally went through every single page of your stuff. (Not in a creepy way. I was looking for your award winning work; I loved it!!!!)

So anyway, just wanted to say that...

It's not too hard to adjust to. (: You'll get used to it for sure. And that's cool! Are you from the mountains, Peidmont, or coast?

Honestly, I looked at your other photos... Ome are just a little... Not great, you seem so in love with yourself which to much of loving yourself can be a bad thing

DANG idiot, you are obnoxiuos. (: No seriously though, why all the hate? In case you were really all that curious, I'm 5 ft 2 and I weigh 120 pounds. I'm not a stick, but I have a healthy BMI and am actually quite proud of all the work I've done to keep it that way. So I'd suggest some self evaluation before you go around critizing more people. That is all.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and I dont really think that anybody could be the judge of weather or not this piece is artisic, pretty much anything can be considered artisic, it became the top photo because it caught sombody's eye. If you dont like it then thats your opinion, and some opinions should be kept to one's self, please be polite.
