Zzzzzzz....

Hi Boyfriend!

Zzzzzzzzzzzz....<3

Happy Autumn!

Happy Autumn and Happy Birthday to my big sister Alice!

 

I'm so cheesy but gah its so fun!

Not sure what I should do to limit the blurriness in some of my shots (besides having a steadier hand)...?

My day.

What to do when you can't sleep? Its 3:34 in the morning...

I got a kick out of the closing sentence. So true.

:)

DIY Billy Buttons.

I couldn't find a tissue paper billy button flower DIY so I made one up. Its not the best and I didnt put too much effort into making the instructions clear, but it was fun. :) Floral tape is SUPER STICKY, so I didn't take pictures of the floral tape part.

Lonely Sunday.

A lonely Sunday Afternoon.

Had some extra fun with Photoshop today.

Black and White.

I was obsessed with color splash photos when I was younger. Well, younger = maybe 3 years ago. Maybe I'll go back later and up the vibrancy of the yellow to make it pop.

"Only in dreams."

 It kinda made me sad after I took this shot. Its probably too blurry to tell but that couple in the background were holding hands and I wanted to capture them in the background with my sleeping dad in focus. He's totally jetlagged from Taiwan.

Sunday Afternoon Fun.

Hello Dear! I brought the camera along for the purpose of taking pictures of the city, but I figured I'd take some photos of Monmouth Park while I was there. I really didn't like any of the pictures I took today, so it was a tad disappointing -- which makes processing less exciting. (Which is why most of them are lightly processed, a few sooc.) I feel like most of them looked like they could have been taken with a P&S. Oh well, it was good practice I suppose, shrugs.

 

The bottom left picture of the set above are fried jalapeno poppers -- jalapenos wrapped in bacon and deep fried. I turned down the offer to try one, which I deeply regret. Heard it was amazing. I also had a slow-roasted hot dog. And some pulled pork/brisket. I would never fare well as foodie or a food critic -- if my taste buds could talk, they would say "meh" after most meals. Maybe I just need to savor my food more often to learn how to appreciate it.

Ive seem this bottle before (it has this creepy, unforgettable label of a headless horseman) but never tried it until yesterday. Pumpkin beer, it was good.

I walked around the betting station in between races. I should have gotten closer to take pictures of the horses!

After the races, we went pinballing. For two hours. There had to have been 200 some pinball machines from all different eras but mostly from the 60's, 70's, and 80's. Pretty cool!

I think it's time to read the manual and get used to all the terminology. When it comes down to it, I still have no clue how to wield your camera.

Hope your having fun in Staten Island/Philly!
