OMG I DON’T HAVE TO GO TO IDAHO
BRILLIANT

I have a crush. And it’s utterly consuming. As in, I don’t want to do anything else but be around that person, and all I want to do is to make them happy. I’m moving beyond infatuated and into obsessed. I’m really tempted to change my fundamental personality to get this person to notice me and like me. I’m craving their attention, and when other people get that attention I get jealous. I feel kind of numb.
This probably isn’t healthy.
On the bright side, however, I am getting my hair done today, and then I get my braces off on Tuesday, so I’ll be a lot more self-confident instead of relying on this person’s approval.

I’m getting my hair done (dyed/cut) on Saturday.
I’m getting my braces off in six days.
I’M FINALLY GOING TO BE PRETTY.
This body of work is an exploration of the extent of cultural appropriation and encourages a discussion about it. I give the appropriator and the appropriated the opportunity to defend themselves and create a dialogue between them, while maintaining a neutral stance myself. I am not attacking those who appropriate, merely educating and creating awareness. I’m also exploring appropriation myself, and discovering the carying degrees of it within this visual conversation.
I’d like to make this a long term exploration, with a lot more participants as a form of generation-wide debate. If you’d like to be photographed to add your point of view, please do not hesitate to pop me a message here or an email at sanaahamid@yahoo.com and we could work something out!

California
I went to California over the weekend.
It was nonstop all day Saturday, and then nonstop all day Sunday. I’m currently operating on about four hours of sleep right now, coupled with copious amounts of sugar and caffeine. It’s actually working pretty well.
I got sunburned at the beach on Saturday, which hurts but will actually turn tan in a day or two.
I can’t wait for it to be Tuesday.
