oh hey there...

i went to mexico for two weeks

that was awesome. it was crazy beautiful and surreal. 

i was there? what? 

i still cant believe it. 

these are my two best pals from the trip , my car mates , my bunk buddies & the two funniest people ive met in a long long time ... wes & jen. i miss them terribly. oh how i hate distance... well... no... i dont hate distance... i hate not being able to jump across it whenever i want. 

i miss everyone from my trip. they were all my family. love them. 

i swam with sea lions

had dolphins swimming under and around my boat 

saw whale sharks under my boat. a swordfish. flying manta rays. 

dove for clams and ate them. ate raw scallops from the bottom of the sea of cortez

had gangs of bullseye pufferfish following me at all times whenever i went in 

bird watched the most incredible species

slept on cots on the beach underneath hundreds of stars every night

got a mean tan 

and didnt break any of my nails 

so all in all... amazing trip. wanna see photos? OKAY SURE! 

thats just some. i am still waiting for the other photos to surface from other peoples cameras. 

my soul grew larger from being in mexico. 

its a great place. 

so yeah

. i'll leave you with that. 

ops!

ive been so bad at writing!
i keep getting asked when ill be updating  new post
and i keep saying "soon" and "soon" never rolls around...
so finally im just making myself do it.
i have had SO much going on.


i have so much music i want to share
but i cant find it all to post . its all in that "new" stage.
so i'll give you this to start:

had a weekend long ladies adventure with my girls

here we are at VEX in our vip booth. 

jackie, alyssa, jenelle, jessica, me, chelsea & sara. 

so much fun. so much fun in fact, that i cant remember it.

all i remember is i slept in the bathtub. 

and it was comfortable .

went swimming the following weekend with the cutest baby ..

Jeffy! him & i are best friends now. love him forever 

here we are. look at him. just look

hes so precious i adore him.

he sees me and goes "hi cassie!"

with a big ol grin on his face. 

sweetest thing

jason diving on command . 

such funny shots

awesome

audra & her boy jason. 

i am SO glad that they were game to do this for me!

i am so pleased with how perfect they look . 

i love my lifeproof case for my iphone.

baby jeffy. 

sweetest sight i ever saw. 

i made him dive over and over again 

maybe 17 times. 

and he was game. 

thanks for being a MFing athlete jason! 

you make me feel like a fat dump! hahahaha

then i went to brewfest. 

but i lost my ID so i was illegal the entire time

lucky for me, 

i know people who give me alcohol with out needing to see my ID 

because its obvious im 23 almost 24. right? 

RIGHT? 

i wish i looked my age and not 12. 

but see here? there i am drinking Trout Slayer

and Jackie , see her? shes drinking Jamaican Red.

then i went to tahoe for the 4th of july

and here is me and my hair

on west shore (thebestshore) 

it was an amazing 4th

i dont feel like posting photos from that day

because i took a ton. and it would be too hard to narrow it down

so this is the only one im posting

its great , at least

and then i went BACK to tahoe 

and did some amateur fire dancing

and its my new aspiration. 

i think i will take it up when i get back from mexico

i hope i have satisfied all my readers

whoever you are

i dont even know if i have "readers" 

it seems like i just write to thin air

follow me on instagram , i post more there

because its easy. :: casstaway :: 

i'll try to write more . 

i say that everytime 

but i really mean it. 

i wanted to be a mermaid...

nymph

mermaid

goddess

audra and i had a little fun with my iphone on saturday.... underwater fun. i am pretty pleased. 

here are some other ones ... its hard to narrow down my favorites. but we plan on taking more creative ones this summer, and even today. i need to find a good website to put all my photography. tumblr.. i guess. i'll work on getting one started and let you guys know when its up. 

we are gonna keep having fun. 

Live at the Fillmore !

this is my trip thru photos from end to start . everything is in reverse. and i am too tired to fix it.

i will write later. my flight leaves tomorrow for salt lake city @ 3:30. my back hurts way bad. this sucks. it's 1 am. EW EW EW. this is not okay. i love sleep too much to stay up this late. word of advice: do not pack last minute. that is going to be in bold and have its very own chapter in my book.

anyway

i love railroad earth. (opening band was hot buttered rum.. they both ruled). i love san fransisco. i love megan. i love the new scarf i got (photos to come). annnnd i am way behind in updates via photos. sorry. i'll fix it later. enjoy

subconcious meanderings

i wish i had a way to make words sound nice. and come up with creative things to say. but i dont have a way. and i can't come up with creative things to say. -or do.

it is tuesday morning
and two amazing things
happened to me yesterday

i found this swell of peace
in my heart and

i ate an entire salmon

now you might think
they are connected

but they happened

as events quite separate from
one another

beautiful

analyzing how we experience the world.

we experience things at one million miles an hour – everything that finds its way through our sensory channels leaves an impression – a mark on a page of our autobiography – our collection slowly builds who people see.


physical emphasis – validating the flesh – the familiar – the obvious – recharge the mystery of being a being – disconnect from recognition – lose yourself in abstraction




the void of body worship – a drunkenness of sorts – envelop – fall in, the thickness, the blindness – a simulation that floats the boat in the ocean – realizing that there are very few regions in the realm we often exist in – repetitions with in a limited language of communication – realizing that i want to speak so much more clearly with out saying anything – without even moving – by means of signals channeled through parallels – a language broken down to symbols and elemental particles – a blink of an eye pauses everything i know – an eternity is reserved for me to receive the messages with absolute clarity

to hear myself talk – validate, solidify my understanding of my collective reality – built from eventful days, starry nights and adventurous weekends with amazing people.

i’s a big world for a single person with big ambitions – but then the world shrinks into full view.

do everything as a professional.
