I'm diving in...

To classics! I'm going to start reading a lot more classics. I used to get a bunch of them back when I made the used book sale at my public library a priority. But now I've decided to read some of the classics! What's on my plate now? The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. I don't know what's next...we'll just have to see!

Through a Mirror

Why do you look at my outer

beauty before you look at my inner?

Is this what society has come to?

You see my face shining

through a mirror and

suddenly you know me.

Do you see the hurt?

Or the fragile pieces that are

easily broken; the pieces that I'm made up of?

All you see is a face.

There is more to me than what can be seen.

$$$$$$

So, I want a camera. Yes, I already have one. Surprisingly it still works, but you can literally see inside of it on different parts of it because the cracks show the inside. I've had it about 4 years now and I want a camera that's really good at taking pictures. So, I stumbled across this one recently...It's the Nikon D3000. The cheapest I've seen it is $456 online. The average cost for it is around $499. But I'm serious about this camera! I just applied somewhere for a job, so we'll see how that goes. My current job doesn't give me enough hours..or joy for that matter. So I'm trying to find ways of making money besides just a job. I'd like to have this money within a month, which is unlikely. But we'll see if things work out! Wish me luck!

The world is at your fingertips.

These are some samples of photos I've taken. Some of them have been touched up. Let me know what you think.

Life is Beautiful

I have a secret obsession and I would like to go public about it. I see the world differently. I see the world as that of a photographer would see it. I want to be a photographer. Always have. I would love to work at Disney World in the entertainment department, but it that doesn't work, photography is my second hope. I love it. I'm getting a new camera soon. How soon? I'm not quite sure yet. But it's coming. I may post pictures I take on my blog but I'm not sure about that yet.

Something seems...different

I feel as if I see the world through a different set of eyes than I used to. In the last year, I've made a lot of mistakes. Now I'm finally getting where I need to be with God again. I've noticed recently that things seem different. Things that I used to be blinded from or not really notice, seem evident to me now. For example, I used to love MTV and VH1...until now. Everything on those channels is just so fake and unrealistic. And the channels are about one thing...sex. Why didn't I ever see it before?

Well anyway, I'm ranting again. I just needed to vent a little bit. Am I crazy for thinking all of this? If I am, then I'm sure there's some other crazy people out there too.
