Sometimes I just forget

...about blogs. I never update this anymore and I don't log in often to read all the blogs I follow. arghhh!

I have a lot of your posts to catch up on! I'm going to do that tomorrow, I skimmed through my list of new posts and I need to go through and really read them, I saw a lot of good stuff already!

As for me, I've been:

-taking photos

-learning Albanian (and I promise this is not as random as it seems)

-drawing/sketching and painting watercolors! It's been a really long time since I've done anything like this and I'm having fun getting back into it!

Experimenting with APS film!

APS 2

APS 3

APS 4

APS 5

APS 6

^ APS film, Minolta Vectis s-1

and a silly sketch, :P

just a silly sketch

Okay, that's enough for tonight! Hope you all are doing well.
More later,
♥ k.

P.S. Tali, I did fix my tripod, thanks! :)

Tripod dangers

I bought a tripod the other day. It wasn't very expensive and it's a "travel" tripod so the legs pull out and can be retracted to different lengths.

I was testing it out and I had so much trouble getting one of the legs back in! I had to really force it and the palm of my hand got caught and pinched. Then I said some bad words and threw the tripod down. I guess it's got some pretty sharp edges because it cut the skin in like a half moon shape. arghhhhhhh.

It's fine now but I think I will just leave the legs at this same height and not bother with "folding" it up again! Now it's not really a "travel" tripod, but that's not a big deal anyway. It's better than hurting my hand!

I got some more film photos developed too, this one I took with the tripod;



I bought this little Dala horse at the thrift store recently. It was only a few dollars and I've always liked them;

My fabulous copy of Jane Eyre;



And this one is horribly out of focus, but I liked it anyway;

00000021 - Copy

It's an old "board" type book of Little Red Riding Hood, in German! (Rotkäppchen) We got this when we lived in Germany when I was younger, and I've always loved it! It's very darling.

Truth


via PostSecret.

I don't really know what to say anymore, but I feel like saying something, so here it is.

Had a nice day with my mom. And it's nearly 5 a.m. now so I should really go to sleep. (I don't like sleeping at night, yes I know that's odd.)
