Some flickr photos of a similar nature :link:.

I Saw This Blog…


I frequently peruse blogs. Most of them are these gorgeous sites that update regularly, are stylish, and have interesting photos of cute things. They are usually run by young women of a similar age bracket to that of my own. I often desire the items they post. It’s embarrassing but they actually influence what I buy.

Except, I’m not like them at all. I obviously don’t have the skill to design a beautiful layout, I can barely manage a post a month, and when I do the content is of a questionable nature.

And on that note…
I recently stopped by one such blog and found this:link:. A cute Valentine’s bear plate from Target. So adorable. I ran out and bought it right away as well as a plastic tumbler.

Bear Plate

Plastic Heart Tumbler

Unfortunately, the tumbler is cracked. Something which I must have overlooked in the store :( . You can actually see the crack running down the middle of the tumbler in the full sized photo. I’ll be returning it for a new one shortly I hope.

This has added to my collection of things I don’t really need from Target. Another can be seen in the background of the above photos :link:.

Browsing blogs is so useful :joy:.

Rebel Rebel


This Canon EOS Rebel XS Black 10.10 MP SLR digital camera has really caught my eye. Having always desired a digital camera I don’t have to whack with palm of my hand to make it function, the Rebel (though way more than I can afford) seems to be a nicely priced digital SLR option for an amateur photography enthusiast.

While I will never buy the Rebel…I am going to stare at it.

I currently own a Sony – DSC-P41 that stopped working about a year ago. It rests on my desk behind my keyboard collecting dust. Occasionally, I pick it up pop new batteries in it, and test to see if it miraculously has fixed itself. It hasn’t. It functioned well for awhile but anytime the battery was less than 100% charged it would start to take grainy and pink hued photos Xp.
Now I’m relying on my mobile phone’s camera which is much grainier than the Sony – DSC-P41. Hence, a complete lack of any recent photos on the blog.

No matter. I’m not doing anything worth of photography :content:.

Resolutions



I’m making a list of unreasonable things I want or want to do.
:check: Draw a comic.
:check: Increase art supplies.
:check: Wear a smaller size in jeans (I don’t need to loose weight, it can relocate if it likes).
:check: Go to the zoo.
:check: Get a new laptop and digital camera.
:check: Find a new job. Something that doesn’t involve standing all day.
:check: Eat healthier.
:check: Makes friends.
:check: Get organized.


Now, I’m sure a lot of these sound mundane. For me, however, they really aren’t. The only thing I can say will happen for certain is that I will buy more art supplies. I love my expensive alcohol based markers!

Well, until next month… maybe I’ll cross something off the list by then. Doubtful, but one never knows :3 .
