A Talent of Mine

Day #20

A Hobby of Mine

These two sort of go hand-in-hand. My hobbies are my talents, cause I tend to only spend time on what I'm good at..or think I'm good at.

So here's a couple of my favorites I've done.

Day "oh my gosh i have so many to catch up on"

Hola. I have been missing from the blog world for some time due to quite a few things. School finals (which after monday are done, woo!) personal ish, and just plain being lazy. Soooo now I have seven days worth of list stuff to catch on. blah.

OOOOKKK here we go

13: Fictional Book- Invisible Monsters by my fave, Mister Chuck Palahniuk. Very odd much like Fight Club was.

14: Non-Fictional Book- Same Kind of Different As Me written by the people it is about, Ron Hall and Denver Moore. I don't read many non-fictional books, but I really enjoyed this one.

15: A Fanfic Day

Not gonna lie...I have no idea what this means..nor do I care enough to figure out, sooo PASS.

16: You'll Think of Me by Keith Urban

This one was kind of hard to come up with because there aren't many songs that make me cry. Movies? Shoot I could give a list 5 miles long, not songs so much though, cause I tend to just not listen to them. I remember this one because I had just broken up with a guy I had dated for a pretty long time in high school, and signed this song for my ASL class. I almost started crying in class which would have been super embarrassing! But I didn't. This song still makes me sad though.

17:An Art Piece

This isn't necessarily an art piece as in artist created/painted/drawn/whatever. But it is a piece of art or could frame one, and I think it's really cool, and it's my next project (once i find those flowers). So ta-da! Thank you Martha Stewart!

18: Whatever tickles my fancy

The Four Corner Store is a website that sells all things toy camera. I have a holga as do quite a few of my friends, and there just isn't anything better than carrying around a cheap plastic camera and not having to worry about any damage to it, but getting steller and really fun pictures in the end. It is really unpredictable, has random light leaks, you can create double exposures easily and it has the cool grainy effect that most film cameras do. Holga's are the only toy cameras I've had a chance to use, but after finding this website that sells them at the cheap prices they're meant to be sold at, I'm thinking I might try another. Moral of the story, toy cameras and film cameras in general, are awesome. So if you've been considering purchasing one, stop considering, just do it!

19: I'm gonna do tomorrow, so until then, have a great night!

Day 11 & 12

Day 11- A Recent Photo Of Me:

From my 23rd b-day outing. It was a blast, but the drive home with Amanda (left) was probably my favorite part. Loud singing and embarrassing dancing all captured on film. We're really safe drivers....heh heh.

Day 12- Whatever I fancy:

Windmills!

TC's has some pretty cool windmills that you can walk right up to. Me and the beau drove up there last time he came to visit, we waited too long so it was a little darker than we wanted for taking pictures but they still turned out pretty cool.

Day 10

Day # 10

A photo of me over 10 years ago

That little blond nugget on the right is me at like 3 or 4 probably. This picture is rad for so many reasons....it's the last year of the 80's or first of the 90's so naturally my sister and I have matching hot pink mini skirts, tie dyed shirts (complete with side synchers), side ponytails, and neon socks on. Plus we're at Chuck E. Cheese's, and last but clearly the most important for picture epic-ness.....I'm so chubby that my knees are touching. Go fat baby me.

Day 9

Day # 9

A Photo I Took

Roly Poly :)

I took this like 2 years ago. I was bored and wanting to experiment with photography stuff so I grabbed my madre's light box for crafting and then went exploring outside for fun things to photograph on it. I had a lot of flowers and leaves that ended up making some good shots but this little guy was definitely my favorite. Seeing this pictures always makes me want to try this again..perhaps I will once Spring fully arrives.

Day 8

Day # 8

A photo that makes me angry or sad.

I find todays entry a little weird. I don't really want to go search for a photo that makes me angry, I don't have any laying around cause..well, why would I want to look at something that makes me angry? Sooo here's a picture that makes me sad.

That's right, a blank piece of paper. Which is exactly what I was staring at until I distracted myself by writing this. I'm supposed to be writing a 4-6 page paper that was actually due yesterday. The paper is a compare and contrast on a book that has a film adaptation. Now originally all we knew is that we had to choose a book from a list of about 6, read the book, answer some questions and then watch the movie later. So I chose Twilight..because I had already read and seen it. Easy peezy, lemon squeezy. NOT. I come to find out a few days ago that there is also a paper due.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the books, but we can all admit that the first was not the most amazing piece of literature to hit the bookshelves. Now, I can BS like nobody's business..but 5 pages..about Twilight. No one is THAT good.

So wish me luck as I attempt to get more than.."I DONT WANT TO WRITE THIS" written down on my outline :/ Farewell!

Polaroidssss

Polaroids are quite possibly one of the coolest types of cameras out there. I love film, but seeing as I shoot mostly in digital, I am used to instant gratification. Film cameras give an amazing result..but I have to wait a really long time..and lets face it, I'm super impatient. Polaroids however, let me snap a picture and hold it in my hands fully developed minutes later. I can't even do that with digital!

Sadly the only Polaroid camera I have at the moment is a Spectra 2, which is a weird version and ridiculously hard to find film for :( But thanks to this fancy contraption called, the internet, I can now turn my digital photos into polaroids!

Let me introduce you to the Poladroid. After downloading the software, which takes about 2 minutes, you can start turning your own pictures into polaroids that can be saved on your

computer. It even makes that great Polaroid sound :) you know the one.

I love this program, and I highly recommend it. Super fun! Here's some of my poladroids:

Go try some!
