Abandoned

I stumbled upon a series of abandoned hospital buildings and decided to poke around a bit. Eventually, I found a building with an unlocked door and walked right in. Among broken glass windows and peeling wallpaper, there were a few isolated posters on the wall still that reminded guests to wash their hands to avoid spreading disease within this children's hospital. I wandered up the stairs, but totally got spooked once I heard a noise, which could have been someone/something upstairs or the wind playing tricks on my mind.

Exploring an abandoned building was kinda cool and I was caught up in the rush. Then afterwards, I remembered that I'm a total chicken when it comes to this kind of stuff. And people asking how Silent Hill-esque the exploration was didn't help. I don't actually know what Silent Hill is about, but I know it's a scary movie. And please don't tell me.

Also, it was a bit hard to find the buildings threatening when "Happiness will find when you stop hiding" was spray-painted along an outside wall. Gotta love that inspirational Canadian graffiti.

  1. This tough, yet still girly outfit (by virtue of the peplum top) is very good for this setting. You blend in nicely style-wise with this outfit. Cool stuff here.

  2. Loving this casual outfit, definitely a look I would wear! It must have been so spooky going to an abandoned hospital, I would love it too but it'll get too creepy for me eventually :P

  3. I love your hair! I love the messy waves. I want them!
    I also love your boots. Perfect for abandoned-hospital-exploration. Think of it more as Scooby Doo vs. Silent Hill.
    You can be Daphne. And Thelma. Beautiful, smart, and brave!

  4. Hahaha :D Sabrina the explorer! Those are some rad boots you have!!!
    Silent Hill is not that scary actually, yeah it's scary, but not in the gory kind of way that most movies are nowadays.

  5. I am too much of a wuss to enter old, abandoned buildings. I admire your courage for even entering, haha. But it made for a great photo location indeed :-) Love these shots. xo
