Tennis, Anyone?

I forgot how much I loved to play tennis. Honestly, I'm not very good but I just enjoy playing it. Lately I've been incredibly inspired by the anime series The Prince of Tennis. Oh how I would love to be that good! I also have way too much fun watching that series, it always makes me laugh! Anywho, tonight I got to play with my friend from Singapore, and found out that he watches the Prince of Tennis too! It kinda made my night(: So from here on out you'll be seeing me at the tennis courts on a regular basis. I'll be sure to post if I learn any awe inspiring moves as well ;)

Oh! I've found my new favorite song! I can't tell you how many times I've listened to it today. I keep playing it over and over again on my laptop and my Ipod(: Hooray for the repeat button!

Unofficial Sisters

So I have these two best friends. Growing up together, we have known each other our whole lives, and for me they're even closer than best friends. Kindred spirits? Definitely. When I'm around them I never have to worry about what they think of me, and I know that they accept me for who I am. So when we hang out I can relax and just be myself. Sometimes I think they know me better than I know myself! They might as well be my unofficial sisters. Seeing them always brightens my day, and no matter how long we're together I always hate to leave. We talk about the randomest things, and we've actually considered about doing a video blog. Even tonight we talked about the three of us sharing a blog and posting all our weird, strange topics that seem to come up when we're with each other. It's always so fun! I'm so thankful for the friends in my life, and I'm especially grateful for these two.

On a random side note, (See, what'd I tell you? My train of thought makes no sense), I found this really funny blog post. I'm determined to do this. http://colormekatie.blogspot.com/2011/06/planking.html

Point of View

Spinning circles, clicking buttons, the sound of rewinding, and a sudden flash of light. A memory captured. A moment in time suspended in a single frame. Smiling faces etched against a brilliant background. Vivid colors twist and swirl as the light and dark collide. Gears are whirling, voices are echoing, and light is filtering through. Twisting, turning, twirling, whirling, and then suddenly: freeze! The wheels in my mind are turning, and a sensation fills me with yearning, as I gaze through a new point of view. A view from behind that sets things into perspective, and lets me see the world in a whole new way. Seeking to capture, seeking to find, that one perfect moment to be embedded forever inside. Creativity flows, imagination glows, and all the while a passion burns. Then the magic of ink and color intertwine as I finally capture that moment in time. The frame is suspended, and the memory embedded, and again the joy is mine. The joy of the moment, the satisfaction of completion, all comes from just one simple thing. Something I like to call: photography
