Day 1 > Photography Is Part Of Me

So each day I will be taking a self portrait. I am getting bored with art and am trying to think of things to do to boost my inspiration! I looked up some ideas on google and it sent me to this site that gave me really good ideas like the one I am doing now. I will also be doing a series of Broken Homes which I am excited about. Saving my money for my new camera, can't wait. I am thinking a Nikon D5000! It's got everything I want at a good price! Oh, too many choices! Yup, so here is my self portrait for today! :D
I decided to take a picture of my with a camera because I love photography. That is part of me! Self portraits are supposed to reflect ones self, I am trying to do so. Maybe in this I will figure out what my life is really about! Who knows! It is like a quest! I got this camera at a garage sale for free, I don't think it works! That sucks! I plan on getting it fixed in the future. Hope I can!

Day 1

Time is a Killer

Time is what kills us.
It makes our eyes rust within our heads.
Causing the unseen to be seen.

From closed lids we can't escape.
The numbers on the clock begin to scramble.
Heads turning in every direction.

Blackness is the emptiness of a soul.
A void that consumes our every thought.
Thoughts of going back in time.

We create a machine to take us back.
Back to where we wish we were.
Back to when things were dear.

But the clock doesn't stop.
It's fancy hands finds their way down our throats.
Waiting for the proper time to rip out hearts.

Time waits patiently.
It has no where else to go.
It has no limitations nor discrimination.

Time is a murderer.
We worship its every hour.
Sacrifice our lives to it.

Live your life till time runs out.
It will not give back what you gave it.
Give it time and you will see.
Your ashes will feed a tree.


I am not a poet.
And I know it! ;)
I like to write poems they just all suck! Really, this makes no sense when you read it, none at all. I sat here for about an hour making this up just because I was bored and I couldn't find anything better to do. So I wrote a poem! OO...and made a movie to go with it. Isn't is amazing. (Yes, I am being sarcastic) English was not my best subject in school. I hated it. Literature on the other hand I loved. I loved to read all the old stories and watch them come to life in my mind...but I can not for the life or me create a story of my own, or a poem for that matter. I have been away from school for too long. I love school. If I had a ton of money I would go to school all of my born days. It is just amazing. If I could live a number of lives I would be an Entomologist in one, a photographer in another, a chef in another, a fashion designer in another, on and on and on and on. It sucks that we as people only have one life to live. I have to many plans...I can't carry them all out in my one little life. Oh well, you can't really change that fact. I know that much. Well, thanks to you who watched my little video and read my poem. I hope you understood it more than I did! Bonjour! (Sitting too long...my right thigh fell asleep.)

Crap..the video didn't work!

I Can Explain

Ok
I must tell you the truth!
The real reason why I created this blog was to take part of indieVISUAL's Journal Challenge. http://indievisualjournal.blogspot.com/
When this year is finished and the new one (2010) begins, I will be journalizing my thoughts in drawings and paintings and pastings everyday and showing each one here in my blog. I am actually quite excited about it. I have always wanted to do this but never had the inspiration to do so. Thanks to Maddyxz she gave me the inspiration to keep a journal. Now it is up to me to keep that journal going everyday. I am sure I can take a few min out of my day to draw something I saw or something new I learned or something that made me laugh (which is real easy to do). I will probably miss a few days, I am a very forgetful person. (i.e. A few weeks ago I set my camera on the dryer to change my shirt which took me like two seconds. Within those two seconds I forgot where I put my camera, I looked everywhere in the house than it dawned on me, DUH, I left it on the dryer. What a doof.) So we will see how it goes. I would hope that you who read my blogs will check out my journals and comment on them or create your own journals and send them my way so I can comment on yours. It will be fun if we make it fun! So again, that you Maddyxz for the idea! Now I am off to buy a nice new journal! (just bought some pencils the other day...so excited to use them!!!)

Oo, not sure why I made this blog!

So
I am pretty much new to blogging!
So therefore nobody will read this post and I am ok with that.
This is primarily for me to get my thoughts out and if people want to read my thoughts, cool!
A few things about me!
I am only 5 feet tall and wear size 6 shoes for the most part.
I love the word antiseptic. Say it...ANTISEPTIC! Ain't it just beautiful!
I believe there is a God, maybe more than one.
I believe in UFO's and that Aliens created the Crop Circles!
I want a pet skunk, their smell does not bother me at all! Weird I know!
My eyes are hazel!
I am dyslexic with numbers.
That is all for now!
So if you read this, good for you! :D
