A few shots from last week. Trying a new uploader for my photos since the blogspot uploader makes my photos so much grainier than the original.
Having a day off today, I think I'm gonna go around the house taking photos of everything and make another post later. Have a nice day :D

I actually like the photos I took today very much, much more than any other wandering series I've done before.

• Had a heartache-free day today. In a parallel world, I had a good day today. A little tired, a little dazed by slightly overthinking, but I managed to have my carefree moments of the day, bought a box for my camera to sleep in at night, and as I stuffed all of my stuff in it, it turned out to look more professional than I'd expected. It looks like a little working kit of mine now :-)
• I love pop culture. Merely because of the diversity. When everyone's so different and unique, you have a feeling that within each of them, there's a part that doesn't fit in with the world. They're smart to learn from, cool to watch, fashionable to be around with, but they have their time of loneliness, just like everybody else. Only for the pop culture people, they express it by their form of art.
• At least it's my ideal world of pop culture. I know it's misunderstood and mistaken, and I'm gonna have to google again for the correct word of the phrase I described above.
• Today as I was walking home from the bus stop the song Your heart is an empty room by Death Cab For Cutie came up and I thought, did I just find my life phasic soundtrack for the moment? And I believe it was because of the crappy exaggeration of the bass sound that the sucker Nokia earphones made that altered the song from the original but for a minute there it sounded really great. And suitable with my mood in an incomprehensible way, well not according to the title because that would be slightly creepy. I think it's probably the way the background music kind of invaded the space that was supposed to be the lyrics, unpremeditatedly creating more depth for the song.
• Wolves & Buck's Dr. Martens' series makes me crave for a pair so badd ... Although the Martens are ridiculously overpriced here in Narnia and the designs aren't really that creative and I'm sure there's something wrong with the quality also, I still wanna own a pair in black or in dark maroon. It's probably high time I left the girl world to be on my way to the group of kids who can't see the difference between guys & girls' clothes.
• "If you're gonna come to hate someone later in life, give them a dslr camera and watch them struggle with craving and saving up money for lenses and accessories"- Alex.
• If you keep saying random genius quotes like that Alex I think I'm gonna have to write about you.
• Pet human takes my thoughts to a whole other level. I need to sort this notion out before even thinking of applying it in real life.
• I'm gonna go to bed early tonight hoping this tiredness that I'm feeling will help me with an instant, no lying around thinking bullcrap sleep.
• Doing the 241 project without the pressure of having to take one good & representative photo is like doing homework voluntarily without thinking about whether the teacher's gonna check it the next day or not. I need to train this evolution to apply it to other numerous situations in life.
• Other emotional situations to be exact.
• Okay enough with the crappy talk. Hope you had a nice Monday and have a happy Tuesday folks :D

Some random shots in the room. Basically what I did today was to go have breakfast with Shire, google about lenses, listen to Death Cab for Cutie and Jakob Dylan, not be able to get over how awesome this new lens is. I swear I won't touch the f/1.4 or 1.2 because that will ruin the moment that I'm having with this baby.
I love weekends. And I'm sorry Alex for not going to the meet-and-greet with you this afternoon because I was too lazy to step out of the house at all, let alone climbing on the bus and going to a place that I know no one of. Although it's kind of a pity not having gone as I could've collected some nice tips on my struggling with taking photos of facial angles.
Wasn't planning on writing anything today, but I wanted to post these photos somewhere, so, that's it for today. I now am going to stand up and fall into bed and take the most random nap of the day just because. Have a nice weekend.

“Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know its normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You’ve just gotta fight your way through”

• I feel like Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Minds.
• Bought a new lens. Was blissfully overjoyed since yesterday.
• I've bought a couple of more things too, a watch, a pair of boots, a bag for school and stuff.
• I've been quite into dressing in black lately. I seriously hope this doesn't have anything to do with my so-called mental instability. But when I'm standing between choices for clothes to wear I always end up with the black ones. 
• Oh well, at least almost all of my shoes aren't black.
• German class isn't fun like it used to be before. I miss my old teachers and the view from my seat in class is the most inconvenient view in the entire planet of Earth.
• Had a meet-and-greet today with the new class of high school, and oh dear why are the boys in that class so amazingly cute? They carried the stools for us to sit and sang for us and did all sorts of stuff that I'm not acquainted of in real life. Why can't I make more contacts with that kind of human being in my life?? Why wasn't I born three years later???
• I swear if I have to see one more photo about any Lauren Conrad or Whitney Port's books I'm gonna lose it.
• I was very surprised today to have made it on time at my old high school from university as the bus that was carrying me was moving with such a despising velocity that made me flip and think of two million ways of getting myself out of it.
• I've been listening to The Honey Trees and a random playlist consisting of eight songs in my phone that I was too lazy to put more. That was it for a monthful of crappy thoughts that doesn't quite help me with any mental evolution I usually require in my neurons.
• I Will Follow You Into The Dark is the only reason I still think of him as someone with at least a sense.
• The creepy part is that I can't sing that song anymore. Like, can't put myself into singing it. Like, every time I make an attempt to sing, my throat gets stuck.
• The 600D is surprisingly not as I'd hoped it would be. The visual display isn't as nice as the 550, the flipping screen is annoying and the Mark II kit lens looks kind of cheap. But oh well, I've seen some of the German kids rocking out that lens like a boss so after all it's about who's behind the camera.
• Was thinking of posting some of the photos I took at Pacey trying out the new lens, but you can check them out on my facebook anyways, that's where I store all of my shallow surfaces, so I just posted the things that have been inspiring me lately. The first comic I think will forever stay my all-time favorite comic on the planet. It just sums up every wandering thought of mine ever since I was a kid in such a brief and creative and childlike way that it becomes astonishing to me.
• I am so glad I can still write. Not writing for a period of time makes me feel like I'm fading a bit. Literally.
• "Like, when you're bored you go listening to music, taking pictures, and he takes out those papers and starts learning." - Alex.
