That First Step
That first step is always the hardest step.
I don't know why I love this photo; it is "incorrect" in every way. It is much too grainy, it is somewhat blurry, the focus isn't what I was planning on, the colors are dull.
But, I love it. Imperfection is beauty, don't you know?
Maybe it's just fun to step out of the boundaries and rules of photography. Push the grain and push the overexposure until I feel confident in my rule breaking.
Be original. Don't do what everyone else is doing, even if they tease you for it. I live by these words. I always wore different clothes in high school. I liked to dress in different styles all the time, and I always went all out with it. I had it in me that I wanted to be a fashion designer. I got teased and made fun of so many times but still kept trying to stand by what I wanted...to this day I still dress somewhat differently. No one will ever be able to figure out my sense of style, because I have so many different styles as ever changing as the days <3 Clothing is a huge way of expressing what I am feeling or going through. Each outfit is just another one of my works of art. Maybe I am still a fashion designer at heart hehe :)
End of babbling for the night. I feel like this blog post was a fail, but at least it was something.
P.S. - New member of the family: Marbles the guinea pig. My sister is in love. Pictures soon.
P.P.S. - I cuddled with the most adorable and sweet and loving dog I've ever had the privilege to know tonight. I am such an animal person <3
P.P.P.S. - I think I had a good day today. Mended some wounds that needed some serious mending. Still unsure, but healing will help I think.
