a photo doesn't capture your charm ♥

When snapping pictures,say, of anyone or anything you know, you tend to capture a certain moment. A moment in time almost. I enjoy taking pictures of my friends from time to time, capturing them in their most surprising moments or their most hilarious ones as well. I'm not declaring myself as a photographer by any means, I just like taking pictures.

The reason that I used this quote (look above in the subject line)that I found in a fortune cookie, no doubt, is that most of it is true. A photo doesnt capture the charm anyone has. It's you, yourself, that has the charm. A photo, is just that. A photo. A picture. Of some unforgettable night with friends, or of some wonderful day on a beach. When you take a picture of someone, you don't know their story. You don't know their true identity. Or their true charm.

You find someone's charm by talking to them...in person. By conversing with them, enjoying them, discovering who they are. As a person.


A photo doesnt capture your charm...a person does.

It's a start of something new...

Well, I've said it once, and I'll say it again: this is a start of something new. (maybe I didn't say, but I am now..)
I'm starting this year (even though its the 18th of January) on a whole new outlook. I've pretty much had it up to a point where I need to change my life. Not drastically or anything like that, just a few minor changes.

The first change is:

HEALTH/DIET

I really need to start watching what I eat. I work at a deli and it's very, very hard to not take little bites of things. VERY HARD. So, I need some control. I always tend to go and grab a coffee from Starbucks or Caribou, not realizing that its full of calories and stuff I shouldn't be eating everyday.
I also am an aspiring baker, so making cupcakse everyday for people, tasting and sampling, it takes a toll. So, I'm going to start cutting things out. Starting with coffee and sodas. And gradually going from there. I  will eat better and try to have a postive outlook on life.

I will try to even excersie!! haha. It's winter, so the chances of me going out and running or biking is slim. Maybe I should join a gym or something... :)


SCHOOL

I have decided to go back to school. Yes, I am putting my foot forward and going to school. I am going for my Bakery/Pastry Arts certificate. I'm pretty excited and a little nervous. It's been a very long time since I've been to school, so this is going to be new to me. Someday, I want to open my own little coffee shop/bakery somewhere real cool, where people will enjoy

RELATIONSHIPS

I have come to notice that most of my friends either have some one or beginning to have someone. Normally, I wouldnt give a care, but it would be nice to go out on dates and just have that connection with someone. Well, it isnt happening anytime soon. I often question what the problem might be. Am I the clingy girl? The obnoixious one? The emotional one? Its hard just finding that one person, I guess. Another part of this whole 'relationship" section of my blog. Relationships with other people. My friends, my family. The basics. I just need to have a positive attitude!! :)






There is prolly more to this blog than I have written, but this is all I have so far. I will continue to pursue this thing on a day to dat basis...

g'nite!
