When I was younger I really never had a taste for Rap, Hip Hop, or even Pop Music, it didn't suit me and I didn't care for it much, I respected it but it just never made my 'must listen + add on playlist status'. I thought for the longest time I would just acknowledge it and grow up never bothering to listen to it, let alone give it a second chance. An yet here I am writing a blog post about it, don't know how it happened nor do I really care; just want to say thanks to all of the artist that night. 

After going to this event presented by Rhyme Street-held at Silk City Diner; (Host: Myke Storm, DJ: Benzi Musiq) I opened my eyes to a whole new chapter in my life; all this because I was simply asked by a friend to take pictures of the event. 

Not going to lie though, I was pretty nervous mostly because I didn't own a fancy camera or fancy lenses that would produce the most amazing shots ever witness by man kind. Yet I decided to accept the offer anyways despite my fear of being ridiculed, and shot everything like my life depended on it all while being fueled and driven by the tunes and lyrics of these wonderful artists each time they got on stage, all different in their respected ways.

Lets just say, it was a really [ different ] night to everything I usually experienced. 

Some final thoughts about this event; Though I'm not musically talented to comment let alone critique on each artist work individually, I can honestly say that this is a whole other level of hip-hop that more people need to hear, or at least experience at least once if anything else.

Goodies prt 1.

I would like everyone of my readers(?) to know, I am that annoying person who takes pictures of my breakfast/lunch/dinner every DAMN time. I know, I know it's a horrible habit and it must be awfully annoying to everyone but I just really love to capture everything around me, especially the food and restaurant (even more so if it's cute/gorgeous/ect)

But it isn't like a quick shoot and done, I always tend to linger and wait for that perfect moment. Seriously I have tell myself sometimes 'your food isn't going to run off, just get cold' but I can't help it, really cant.  

Close ups are my absolute favorite cause then you get that dreamy buttery bokeh background, so if you see me leaning in close to my dinner with my camera at hand, don't be to surprised. 

So here I present to you some images of my eating/drinking habits over the early year of 2013, I'll probably post more goodies later on in the next month or two, give us a time to bond and peek into my life; but really it's an excuse so I can take more delicious food porn pictures.

Terrordactor

Her name is Terrordactor

She doesn't like people food, except sweets

She likes soft things, and the occasional hugs

She is my flufferbutt, and I love her.

Dear Readers, do you remember when I mentioned the kittens we fostered? Well we kept one after her buyer was a no show, and she has then since grown on me. She's rather large for being five-six months I'm wondering how much bigger can she become? I enjoy taking pictures of her, especially since I still have all her "baby" pictures as well so when I feel like getting 'nostalgic' I just whip them out and remember all the fun I had raising her and her brother/sisters too.

I guess I enjoy staring at pictures taken too, because it reminds me that time flies by in a blink of an eye, and it's the perfect reminder to cherish each moment.

VIP

This was my first time being VIP for any concert that I have ever attended in the past. I'm so glad I jumped at the chance to buy tickets when they were being sold, seriously I was right on the fence the entire time and the high off of the excitement made me just feel feel giddy; even while being smashed into a pulp from the people behind me.I'll admit that taking photos of them while being so close was one of the main highlights of the night for me personally. ❤

I can gladly say that this opened my eyes in more then just one way though, it really made me realize that I honestly want to continue photography as well, not just for concerts but for everything in between during my life.

Seriously though I am at a loss of words for how much fun I had, I just can't wait to be given more opportunities like this.

Skiing

Skiing, a fun experience that I can officially and finally cross off my bucket list, but I don't intend to stop skiing just because I crossed it off ; After about four or five falls I finally got the hang of it and decided this was actually fun, and that I would enjoy to do this more often then just this one time.

I left the battlefield with only one bruise. Victory.
Really though it feels like freedom to just go down, it really is amazing.When I get better I will buy my own skis and boots, and go skii tracking down a huge mountain but for now it's going to be one slope at a time.

Getting back on track

 

 

 

One day at a time.

Life is going by way to quickly and most of my friends are now all starting to move back home once graduation starts; some of them are moving farther away, while others are moving a few states away. Perhaps it's time I moved too.

→ Hello,

Jinyuan

 Our drawings. "What makes us happy"

 The man and I

 

Meeting new people is such an exciting adventure in itself that I'm starting to slowly get used to its spontaneity. I enjoy hosting others from different cultures, when they come I want to show them all the places I enjoy also; but still being slightly new I wonder at times if they show me more then I show them? Because of my newest guest I found two new amazing places ( I wouldn't have thought twice about them, if it was not for her) that I cant wait to now show others as well. Readers please meet Jinyuan, she is from Shanghai and she is possibly the most bubbliest girl I have yet to meet so far. Instantly when I picked her up I was received with a warm hug, a genuine smile, and a wonderful thank you. Very kind she was and also very patient with my lack of hosting experience too, she is so sweet she might as well give me cavities. I can only hope we continue to stay in touch.

Thank you so much Jinyuan, you were such a wonderful guest I am at a loss of words once more,  I can only hope I have the honor of meeting you in China! Till then I hope that only smiles and kindness come your way.
