Down On Me???

I actually love this picture of me and my dad. Especially since it was caught with my little puppy in there with me :) He has always been the person I looked up to most and found myself wanting to be like as I grew up. He's the one totally responsible for making me as adventurous as I am because he has always treated me the same way ever since I can remember. He wasn't the dad that talked to me like I was a cute little puppy. He talked to me like an adult even when I was 5. He took me everywhere he went. Shared everything in his life with me (everything...). And taught me all that he knows. And he still does! I was his Jedi apprentice if you will. Now that I'm older, it's hard for us to sit and actually have conversations that last hours on end... but today was a rare opportunity and even though it wasn't anything particularly deep, it was just what I needed.

In other news.....

..Atlas Shrugged is in the process of changing my life right now. Every page I read the deeper I sink for this book like it's pulling me into this train of thought that's making my brain tick louder than it has in a long time, if not more than ever before. If you are someone that is looking for answers to life, you feel different, full of questions with no answers that anyone can tell you, this my friends could be exactly what you're looking for. It's actually a fictional story but the way Ayn Rand has written the beauty, it's captivating in so many ways.

..I watched the movie Black Swan tonight with my family. What I pulled from it was the girl in the movie was skizofrinic and ended up trying to become her character so deeply, she lost herself entirely and it ended up destroying her. The lesson to take from it is basically keep control of your mind! So many people let emotions run wild and dictate everything they ever do. This is what causes so many issues in your life. I think the key to life for everyone is finding that balance between controlling, and letting loose. Know where your boundaries are so you don't go insane! And do something that ultimately destroys you entirely.

..Looks like May is coming around so quickly! I have an engagement photoshoot booked for the end of May and I may also be doing a portrait session too with one of the models I shot with last year, Ms. Shantell.

..I took some pictures in the garden at my grandma's house today. Some of them turned out pretty well! :)




The blog post title came from this song. Normally I hate ghetto music. Especially dirty music. But for some reason, this song makes an exception. And I'm not gonna lie, it makes me want to dance....

Well I better get some sleep because I'm waking up early to jump on the GOW3 beta that starts in just 4 hours! :)
