New Category- autumn2o1o

It's almost Autumn (my favorite season!!!) so, I can't keep using the "summer2o1o" category! So, introducing the new category which will take effect as of September 1st!

weekly agenda

BEACH!!!!!
I'm going to the beach tomorrow! FINALLY!!!! My last full free day of summer, and I'm finally getting the one indulgence I've craved all summer! HOORAY. My weekly awards should definitely be based off of that!

Oh..yeah..then there's school. Only two days left. On Tuesday is the orientation for freshman. And Wed. is the first day of school. Fun...

Oh, and I still have to review the Pecan Caramel Truffle. I don't have any pictures, but it was really good. I didn't like it only because I bit into it and the caramel just melted out, and it got really messy. But it could just be that I'm a messy eater, which is true. Have napkins when you eat this one! I was so worried about the messiness I didn't really get to taste it. So I'll let you know how I rate it as soon as I get the chance to try another!!

Awards of the Week (Aug. 22- Aug. 28)

I know i'm a day late, but I forgot that I had yet to do them this week, and I was at the cottage yesterday!!!

So lets get right to it! Lyrics of the week: from Allie Moss' "Melancholy Astronautic Man"
"You're like a man, alone in outer space. Cradling the earth in the palm of his hand"
I like this song a lot! It is very happy and upbeat, and the beginning sounds like a child's tune, but it is just so happy even though the lyrics aren't particularly sunshine and lollipops! I also might be able to attend an Allie Moss concert soon and I think that would be the coolest thing!! Look her up on YouTube if you haven't yet!(:

The picture of the week:

This picture is from the Godiva Chocolatier store. Representing (obviously) the chocolate! Ths is the stand where they had the Ice Cream Parlor truffles! YUM!!! I got 8 harvest spice truffles, and four of the flavors mentioned before. So, at the end of the week..well after 6 days...i have only 3 harvest spice truffles, 2 of Mint Chocolate chip and Oranges&Creme, and 3 Pecan CaramelTruffles!! Needless to say they were delicious(:

And this week, I don't have a word of the week. No word has really represented my week, and no word has stood out to me as a particularly worthy word of the week. Sorry!!

PICNIK PREMIUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just got the Picnik premium feature. This gives me access to more options such as more collages, more texts, and move seasonal effects! I can't wait to use it! No, I didn't buy it, but I can't tell you how I earned it. Point is, i'm SO HAPPY!! This first month of school I plan to take pictures like CRAZY so that I can take advantage of this Picnik Premium one-month opportunity!! I will definitely have some photos up of Premium features!!!

GODIVA MONTH!

Godiva Chocolatier. The best chocolate. Ever. I love Hershey's, M&Ms, Dove and what not, but Godiva is like a Chocolate Boutique: It's special! I love Godivaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!! Went shopping today at a mall which is 45 minutes from our home to shop AND to get Godiva Chocolate! The Godiva at the mall which I usually shop at closedD'= so that meant no free chocolate of the month, and no more chocolate from Godiva! I was really depressed. But then my mom found out about this, and every other month (Feb. Apr. June, Aug., Oct., and Dec.) I will get to go to Godiva, get a free chocolate of the month (and what ever other reward I earn with my Rewards Card which I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GETTING IF YOU LIKE CHOCOLATE, I MEAN HELLO! FREE CHOCOLATE!!!!!!) and I can spend up to $20 on any other chocolate! I'm STOKED=D

So this means every other months I will be excitedly reporting and rating chocolate! c(=
Well, this time around I tried the Chocolate Lava Cake Truffle as my free chocolate of the month, which (as the picture shows) completely lava-like! It was just bursting with chocolatey flavor. There was the truffle filling and like a chocolate liquidy type ingredient which contributed to the lava like flavor. The chocolate though tasted thick, and it was weird to have that contrast in a truffle, and it was sort of overpowering, so I couldn't taste the other part of the truffle. It was delicous overall, though! 85% out 100%!!
Before I ate it! I'm not really sure what's on top of it, but as far as I'm concerned it didn't effect the taste much.
In the inside! The chocolate in the middle kind of gushed out, like a gusher! But it was yummy!
My sister enjoyed a Mandarin Orange Spring Fruits chocolate. She said it was tasty, but I didn't actually get to try it myself.
(Mandarin Orange Spring Fruit)
I also purchased some Harvest Spice Truffles. THESE ARE MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE TRUFFLES GODIVA HAS TO OFFER: AND THAT'S SAYING A LOT! I absolutely love this flavor. It has a milk chocolate ganache mized with cinnamon, cloves and nutmegg!!! It's a perfect balance between spices thats are still sweet and a harvesty flavor that make Autumn feel more cozy. I think it tastes just like you'd expect it to. The name HARVEST comes from its fresh harvested flavor. legit. It tastes just like Autumn, pumpkins, Thanksgiving Dinner and the piles of leaves all in one truffle. It's DELICIOUS. 100% out of 100%!!!!!

I also am trying the Ice Cream Parlor Truffles, which are a special limited edition for the summer and for the National Ice Cream Day! I am going to try the Orange&Creme, the Mint Chocolate Chip, and the Pecan Caramel Truffles! I cannot wait! I have already tasted the Orange and Creme. And I'm trying the Mint Chocolate Chip as I type!!! I loveeee limited edition things, for some reason! Like things that are special for occasions?!?! Yeah! So i love the whole idea of Ice Cream "Pint" containers and the creamy ganache centers! Not to mention they also have chocolate pops AND truffle bar collectiosn which i SO wish i couldve tried!!!!!! It's sooooo excitingg!!!! So, I'm only going to be trying three flavors, but I love mint chocolate chip, I hear tha tthe Pecan truffle is AH-MAZING, and the other flavors didn't interest me like Oranges&Creme. So, I can't wait to review these!!!! There are six truffle flavors in total, however.
Hazelnut Gelato and Coffe Gelato: I don't like coffe, so these didn't interest me much.
Neapolitan: I don't like strawberry and vanilla ice cream, either, so I didn't think I'd be too crazy for this flavor...
Orange & Creme- It is so named Orange and Creme for a reason! A perfect balance between an ice creamy taste and orange bursts of flavor. There is a lot of the creamy feel, almost too creamy for a truffle, but definitely sticking to the Ice Cream theme! I dont really like oranges...at all, but when there's chocolate, you can't go wrong! A white chocolate swirl decorates the dainty and very light, fluffy truffle. The flavor, I wasn't crazy about. I mean, there's still that overpowering orange flavor that just matches the chocolate. It was pretty good, just not my favorite---80%!!!

Mint Chocolate Chip- When I was younger I used to go to Friendly's (an ice cream place) that had Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream. I LOVED mint chocolate chip. I've kind of "grown out" of those taste buds now, and I usually go for something a little more chocolatey! But this truffle reminded me why I loved it that flavor. This truffle tastes EXACTLY like the ice cream, only if you eat it really fast, it doesn't give you a brain freeze! The inside is very smooth-- a ganache center--which contributes to the ice cream feel. The shell is chocolate and mint, and there are small bursts of chocolate chips inside the truffle. It brought me back to the days where I'd get ice cream after shots. It might not please people who don't have my taste buds, but I liked the themed flavor. 100% (:
The inside of it! (I cut it in half..) You can see the little chocolate chips! YUM!

There are four in each pint container. They don't really all fit..but they're still deliciouss hehe;) I ate one truffle along with Tea Forte's English Breakfast. It was a simple mix.

School Countdown

It feels like just yesterday I was posting on this blog a countdown until the END of school. Now I'm posting a countdown until FRESHMAN YEAR BEGINS? Oh, how this summer has gone by too fast. I'm not happy. I haven't dont half the things I want to with my summer. Well, ten days left. ='(

Not happyyD'=

NEW YORK

THAT'S RIGHT. NEW YORK! I'm going to New York, New York in less than 12 hours! I cannot wait. I'm going to hopefully visit the M&M store, and I don't know what else I'm going to do besides that. I really want to visit the Godiva Chocolate Store, because I love chocolate. I love chocolate SOOO muchh--who DOESNT??

Well, certain people are restricting some things from the trip, which is really making me less enthusiastic. I really hope that it all works out. Plus--there's another factor that will hopefully up my mood, but I really shouldn't be sharing it with the potential universe. So. I won't. But I will hopefully have tons of pictures when I get back (and the pictures probably won't be online until monday the earliest) and hopefully tons of news to share!

New-York-Good-Bye(: im ooberr excitedd=D


--see pictures of new york beloww!!--


(HERSHEY'S STORE)

(view from the Empire State Bulding)


(There was just this random parade going on below, so I took a photo of it? So random!)

Weekly Awads (Aug 15-Aug 21)

It's that time of week ALREADY? Huh, time goes by FAST!

Anyways:
The lyrics of this week are from an unknown artist, just singing on YouTube. But I really like her style of music, her voice, and her lyrics! She covers great artists like Ingrid Michaelson and Allie Moss. This is from her original song "Burn that Love Story"

"You once held my heart. But now I'm dying and tearing yours apart."

It's sweet, and relates to all the messy breakups. And I just like the simplicity and understanding in the lyrics!
The photo of the week:

It really describes me. Only because I feel like not the person in the middle, but one in the crowd. I feel like someone who hates on everyone (not literally) but I always feel like I'm a part of something. This might be a good thing. But notice how in the picture the post-it-note people aren't friends with any one. They're too caught up on feeling one emotion towards one person. I feel like the people in my life are just a bit more 3D than that. They feel all sorts of things. But usually they're focused on people. They're not feelings about life, or nature, or self-worth, they're trying to make other people feel a certain way towards them. It's complicated to explain in one blog entry. But overall, it describes my poor yucky negative feeling.
And the word of the week:
tintinnabulation- (n.) The sound of a bell ringing.

Simple definition...really long complicated word. Came across it while reading this week! It was just long, and there are a bunch of words I didn't know, so I just chose a random one. This one doesn't specifically have a special meaning.

life.is still not that great.

Mood: =( sad. overall.

no phone until tonight..no, i didn't get it taken away from me.

hasnt seen eat pray love yet.

not feeling so great.

people still ignore me.

Tuesday, August 17

Life..is..eh..

2:00 AM..no epic Taylor Swift Song moment. You know how she always sings about stuff happening at 2 am? "The Way I Loved You"--'it's two am and i'm cursing your name', "Breathe"--'it's two am feelin' like i just lost a friend', and "Mary's Song (Oh My My My My)"--"two am riding in your truck"

see.? taylor swift has this obsession with this time of day/night. and i can't really understand it now because my 2am is feeling just like i have practically all day today, and it hasn't been a particularly good feeling, so...

feeling..iffy..=\

Picnik Editing!

These are edits that I did on Picnik for Kayla Becher who asked me to edit them!

This is what just Picnik Editing and Touch-Up did, and it make a huge impact!!

And here is a collage of some of the variations of edits that I can do. The one in the top left it just the edited one. Then in comparison, the other three are there. And they look better when they're biggest. I don't like to mess with photos too much, I like to keep the picture the same, without cropping or using a focal tool, and I like to capture the entire picture. I often edit with color and the edges of the photo. The one at the bottom left is edited more than I usually do, and it's hard to see the background, and I also used Focal Zoom which is another tool I'm often against. I like the ones on the right, however. And if you saw their actual photos, you'd see that I used focals and Vignette but with a very wide focus.


And here is just what I did for fun: changed hair color, and the color of the scarf using the "Tint" effect. I like giving little "makeovers" because they look very natural and calm.

If you want to see more stuff I can do click "Picnik" under Labels to see some other pictures!

OMGPOP

Ever heard of it? Well it's a gaming site that is SO addicting! And SO much fun!




Fanta, the soda co. it i guess sponsoring OMGPOP. And all of these awesome new updates are available! I LOVE it!!!! I highly recommend this gaming site to anyone who has yet to fall in like with it[: I will be updating on this often!!! (Under the "random interest" label!)


And I want to post a QUICK shout out to two people (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE IF YOU'RE READING IT) who commented and recently read my blog! Thanks! I'm honored to know that my feelings and my interests are being explored by others!! thankss!!!

Awards of the Week

Awards of the Week
Lyrics of the Week- From "Mine" by Taylor Swift


"You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter/You were the best thing that's ever been in mine"


I like these lyrics because I just like the meaning of it. A guy would have to be pretty special to make a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter, and I like the way it sounds. And then the final line of the chorus is important, so I added that too[:



Picture of the Week:
This is my friend's cat, Dewey. He's actually a 7 week old kitty! He and his sister Muffy (grey) are the most adorable kittens I've ever seen! They're so cute! I decided that when I'm older, I want kittens! I want one to be a tabby kitten (if possible) names Cheshire. I haven't decided what the other one is going to be named yet...but I'd like a girl and a boy! I could cuddle with them alll dayy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And the word of the week:
FIDELITY-(n.) loyalty, conjugal faithfulness.
I've never known exactly what this word meant. I LOVE the song "Fidelity" by Regina Spektor, but no, I've never known what it meant. So I decided to look it up, and find out what it meant! And it's a much fancier word than just "loyalty" but I like the meaning of both, anyways.

POLL UPDATE

Decided not have regular polls. Once I get a few regular readers, I might put them up again. So, recommend to your friends! thanks[:

A lot of stuff! Summerr continues(:

got to bed at 4 last night, slept until 2:00, normally that means I wouldv'e slept through SCHOOL! But hey, it's summer. Anyways, lots of stuff to catch up on!

Eat Pray Love premieres tomorrow! I really want to go see it! It looks soo good! There will be a movie review, and mabye I can find some inspiration for my Weekly Awards! I hope so!


Check out this AWESOME bench! I searched it and it's soo awesomely incredible!! It's the Ice Cream Sandwich Bench that was in iCarly's iGot a Hot Room! I was about to ask my mom to get it until I saw the price...$950. Yeah, so that's not going in my new room. But don't YOU wish it was in YOUR room?!?! It's also the Grand Prize of the iCarly Sweepstakes. I didn't enter, because the odds are against me, but it's still awesome!

Wednesday, August 11

Yeah...pretty much.

Nothing too exciting right now. Going to the cottage for a day then back home tomorrow to hopefully be with people, maybe even this one specific person, but they keep ignoring me. Could I have been wrong about friendship from the start?

Anyways, feeling pretty lonely. Hope to make summer worth it. It probably won't be a success. It was fun while it lasted, but I just want to get more of my life through with so I can make decisions on my own, and have my own life. I know, one needs school and college to have a future, but the journey to the end isn't always smooth.

Making a lot of simpler decisions on the way there. Changing things about everything. Hoping for a new room--not getting it soon. Life is...ehh..

I'm trying to make it better for myself and only myself.
...

Tuesday, August 10

(=

Things are going good. No drastic imbalance in my life to make me feel upset. It's one of those moments where I'm generally just in a good mood for no reason. Often I have to be looking forward to something to be happy/excited rather than just happy-content. I'm just in a particularly good mood..

Why does this seem so odd? Well, I have yet to read over 600 pages of small-print-Old-English for school, my phone is broken (I left it on the rocks at the cottage and it must've gotten wetD'=) but it's slowly repairing..., not to mention the site I used to go to if I wanted to watch movies is like not working, and, of course, summer is almost over. So many unpleasant things, but I'm still feeling pretty good.

Meeting people laterr...hopefully nothing ruins this good moodd[:

fingers crossed(:

THE 100TH POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY 100TH POST!!
IT'S THE 100TH POST OF THIS BLOG! THAT MEANS THAT I'VE UPDATED THIS PAGE 100 TIMES AT LEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To celebrate, I've got lots of blog-candy for you: in other words, a lot of stuff the daily reader of this blog will enjoy[: Sorry I haven't gotten to this yet, but I've been very busy in Maine. Besides, I wanted this to be the best post yet! So each topic is a different color, hopefully to help with organization! So ENJOY THE 100TH POST!

IT'S A NEW LABEL! It's called "Awards of the Week" Every week I'll be handing out awards to lines of a song that will be the Lyrics of the Week. You can nominate lyrics by commenting. Also, a Picture of the Week will also be awarded. This will either be from my own gallery or from some one else's, or maybe even yours! Just comment during each Award Ceremony to nominate a photo! And, last but not least, is a Word of the Week. This might be just a random word, or a new word found while reading. I will have reasons for choosing each and every one of these awards which will be described in the post. Also, commenting and nominating is encouraged! So please do so!
This week, the first annual "Weekly Awards" ceremony, I have an award for each category, as I always should.

This week's lyric of the week is from "Secrets" by OneRepublic.
"I'm gonna give all my secrets away"
I like this song. It's in the movie "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" which I'm currently OBSESSED with! And I think it represents me because I often give secrets away, although sometimes--most times--they might not be mine...

This week's picture of the week is:
I miss the beach. I want to live on the beach someday when I'm older. I miss the beach soo much. This photo is gorgeous. It reminds me of how much I want to be near the beach. This was taken by my friend Grace who is an amazing photographer!
This week's word of the week is:
JUXTAPOSITION- definition: (v.) the act of positioning close together (or side by side)
I was reading an interview of Jerry Spinelli talking about his book "Eggs" which is my book review today too! Anyways, i had no idea whatsoever what it meant, so i looked it up, and found the definition.

These awards will be posted weekly probably during the weekdays. The weeks will be Sunday-Saturday. So I will probably be posting awards from Monday-Thursday. I shouldn't post one on Saturday for one week then Sunday for the next week. So, enjoy! DONT FORGET TO NOMINATE SOME SUGGESTIONS[:



Maine: short and sweet visit! We're back already[:


We visited, nothing tooo special. Also, no beachD'= So no pictures of the beach. But our family might be going to Misquamicut in Rhode Island later this summer!! That should be just as exciting!! We shopped not only at Freeport but on the way home westopped at the Kittery Outlets, and both had great sales at some great stores(:


This was taken in the pool there..I'm the one struggling to smile under my sister's weight...thanks Kira..


Kira at L.L. Bean. It was the entrance to the Kid's shopping center, and this is her...posing...


This photo was just edited, before it looked worse. I just thought it was s good example of how useful the "Teeth Whitening" could be because it helped ALL of the smiles in this photo! Even mine...I'm the one all the way to the left with the green lei.


This was cool. I wish I'd had taken this before the colorsplash contest at the Picnik Help Forum because it looks really cool! I was jsut playing around with some effects and this was the amazing outcome[: I like how they're all different colors and stuff... It's cooll:i lovee itt




Kira i guess really liked this outfit, so she spent a good 5-10 minutes scoping out the outfit--it only should've taken like two minutes--and she needed a picture with it. No, she didn't want to buy it, just wanted a picture with it. Incredible.


Anyways, overall, Maine was a fun experience[: Next year, it'll probably happen again, and perhaps the Morrisons will come up and visit the cottage!! Hopefully next year I'll go to the Wells Beach like I did last year!!!!


Picnik has this feature called "Tint" which can not only be used to give photos a tint of color, but you can change a person's hair color, eye color, and give them full makeovers by giving them lipgloss or applying blush! Picnik has just become soo much more helpful, not that it wasn't absolutely my favorite photo editing site anyways!

I learned how to make a "Rainbow Eye" This is my friend's eye, and she has beautiful eyes, so I thought she'd be the perfect "guinea pig." Hahahahaa[: the first one didn't come out as well, but this one looks really cool. i've also learned how to make anyone's eyes different colors, even like a vampire red or a sea green!!! Just go to tint, and you'd have to make a stripe with each color, or you can make a target-type thing with the color going inwards. Just tint each color individually nd it should turn out awesome!


How to video:












Now, time for a movie review!! **CAUTION. CONTAINS SPOILERS!** I've recently watched the movie "When In Rome." It stars Kristen Bell as Beth, a young single woman whose sister is engaged after knowing a man for two weeks. Beth has to attend her sister's wedding in Rome as a Bride's Maid. She meets the Nick (Josh Duhamel), the best man for the wedding, and he seems like the perfect man. After seeing Nick kiss another woman during the reception, Beth walks over to the Fountain of Love and not only dips her feet into the fountain, but proceeds to taking four coins and a poker chip that were thrown in by men wanting love. Little did Beth know about the curse: if you take a coin from the Fountain of Love, the person who threw the coin in the fountain will fall in love with you. So Beth has five men under a spell and, literally, stalking her insisting they truly love her. Beth only has two options to reverse the curse: either return the coins to the Fountain of Love, or return them to whomever they were thrown in the fountain by. And that's all I'll reveal!

This movie was definitely a chick flick, but it was cute, charming, and something I'd recommend the heartbroken to see to give them faith that love can still be found! Probably an 7.75/10. Only removing points because it was a little cheesy, but the overall theme was a little cheesy tooooo...but it was definitely cuutee[: also, PG13? I think there should be a PG10 because there's hardly any sexual content, hardly any swears that I remember, and the only reason not have it be PG is because the topic of love, and some of the content is a little more inappropriate but not that bad. So I'd rate the movie PG10.




Also, I'm counting down the days until the movie "Eat Pray Love" It looks like something I personally would love. In case you didn't know, I want to travel the world some day. I want to marvel at foreign things, explore new cultures and what not. And Eat Pray Love looks charming, romantic, and very funny. I will definitely be doing a movie review for that!

NEW POLL! It's a short simple poll just to see the ratio of females to males visiting my blog[: So are you a guy? A girl? Or were you born both or neither!? Or perhasp you're a moose, who captured some hiker's computer and are visiting MY SITE with your limited internet access, in which case i'd be honored[: So, answer!! This poll will be active until next Tuesday

Cottage this weekend!! Hopefully going to be having a sleepover with some of my dance friends!!!!!!!! Who knows?!? Definitely have pictures up! And I will be updating on that subject tooo[:

"Eggs" by Jerry Spinelli is my book review for the 100th post. David, (9 years old) whose mother recently passed away, moves with his grandmother and talks to her as little as possible. He meets 14 year old Primrose whose father disappeared when she was young. Both kids' parents who are still alive aren't always there like one would think they should be. So both kids rely on each other to learn from. Their only adult guidance is a man witha growing disorder who people call "Refrigerator John." Their friendship twists in between their two personalities. I personally find their friendship a result from their fragile egg-like similarities, and they could be very good siblings. Two people who aren't the best at making friends or reaching out to people reach out to each other and become friends unlike most.



I give it a 9/10 only because the overall concept was a little odd and pretty unrealistic in the grand scheme: what grandmother wouldn't notice her child leaving the house almost every day at night and disappearing until past midnight? It's a little unrealisitc but it's definitely original, creative, quirky and it will definitely have you wanting to keep reading! loved it!



"Oh. my. Gods." by Tera Lynn Childs is the book I'm currently reading. I will have a review once I'm done with it. It's about greek mythology and how a girl named Phoebe moves to a small greek island after her mother gets remarried to a guy she's known for a very short amount of time. Sounds like a disaster right? Well, she has to move halfway across the world for her senior year in high school to a private school in which her new stepfather is the headmaster. But that's not her biggest problem. the school is so exclusive that nearly all of the students are descendants of greek gods or goddesses!! not to mention they all have superpowers! that's all i've read about so far, but when i'm done i shall give a full summary and review.


Got a new polish from OPI! It's called "Shootout at the O.K. Coral" It's a pretty coral from OPI's colorcopia collection! Swatch? I haven't gotten around to any yet. But my camera is stupid and doesn't allow very good pictures, so it's hard to capture the amazing colors in a flattering way. The actual polish is a bit more pink than in the photo. It's sort of like the color of this font! I'll take photos later, so look forward to those!!


And for the random interest topic: T-E-A! I love tea. It's soothing, and warm and lovely to have on a cold snowy winter day or a hot sunny summer day! I used to have it with sugar, but i don't anymore. Anyways, my favorite brand of tea is "Celestial Seasonings" they have many flavors of herbal teas which are my favorite. I love trying them all. I also love looking for teas wherever I go, and trying new flavors! I will, as a random interest topic and not a new label, I'll be reviewing teas as well--not as critically as books or movies, just saying whether or not they're good or if they're interesting or original etc.

My first tea review will be of the Celestial Seasonings "Tropic od Strawberry" On a scale of 1-5 i'd give it a 5! It's delishhh! I LOVE strawberries, and this flavor was just perfect for any strawberry lover! But I also enjoy other brands of tea. Originally, I drank only Red Rose tea with tons of sugar and that was the only way I drank tea. But without sugar is just as good! I recommend tea to anyone who drinks coffee;)


Oh! I also just made a flickr account! I'm jsut hoping to make my photography a bit more public. But I don't think I can committ to it. I don't think I'll be visiting it often, or updating it often. So, visit, but it won't be much from this blog. Anyways, wish me luck!

SO THAT WAS THE 100TH POST! HOPE YOU ENJOYED READING IT[: I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE 500TH POST! THAT WILL BE SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE!

Still taking suggestions to improve the blog in any way!!! Perhaps a non-regular webshow? Maybe[: No giveaway, not enough followers. Please recommend to friends!!!!

Happy 100th post to all, and to all a good night!
