There Is More To Life Than Being Ridiculously Good Looking.

I have a lot of time at work to look at all kinds of things in magazines and online. A large part of my day is often spent looking for images that would be cool to make my own. This is not a well known fact, but I have quite freak obsession with Amy Winehouse. She is not the most popular person in the entertainment industry, and she is known best for hiding her drugs in her ridiculous beehive hair. Today at work, Alyssa was going through Harper's Bazaar and an article with Amy Winehouse came up because she is debuting her new clothing line because she is putting her life on a new track. The reporter talked about attending the shoot and watching Winehouse interact with her photographer, and as the shoot went on, she became more and more drunk off her rather large glass of wine.

What caught my eye about this article, as most things with Amy Winehouse, was the picture of her in the middle of the page. Now we all know, she is not the most eye catching lady in the group, but I find that this is what I really like about her. She is completely her own. There is nothing that phases her. Like if a fan gets in her face at a concert, the simple solution is to deck them in the face. Why havent all the pop stars caught onto this yet? She has this look about her that no one else really can imitate.

If you all knew Alyssa, how I know Alyssa, you would know that she too fits this mold. She is the girl who will go against the grain just because you told her not to. She is bold, brave, intimidating, hard to get, frustrating, and often difficult to deal with. But once you peel back these complicated layers, you will find that she loves with her all, gives what she can, and even though you think that she doesnt care, she comes through and she does. There is no one like her.

Seeing the picture of Winehouse made me want to take a picture like it. A lass who has had her issues, fought through them, and still came out kickin' after it was all said and done. I slapped a coat on her, put a light in her face, and snapped. Enjoy.
