Never Too Old For Toys

Playing with my new camera!

     So it was my birthday not too long ago and I've been doing everything except staying on the ball. I stopped running, stopped eating healthy, stopped using my money responsibly, on and on. It was pretty  bad, like Cristina-Gone-Wild sort of stuff. Whats worse is I celebrate the whole month but I was able to reign myself in and I intend on getting back on track. Which includes writing my blog!

     With the gift card my parents gave me I bought a handy-dandy (favorite modifier ever) little camera. Originally I bought it because I couldn't find my other one and I wasn't able to take pictures for my food-blog project. I also figured I would need one for future events and trips and stumbled upon one on sale that had amazing zoom and overall great customer reviews (AND came with a free 4 Gb memory). So here I am, beaming, as I coddle my new toy. I think I must have taken over 100 pictures already!

     Lastly, I have a new project inspired by the movie Yes Man - running photography! Not only can I take pictures while running, I can also take pictures while riding bike or walking! It'll be evidence that I'm going through with the running/cycling thing and might yield some good snaps. I'd just love to work on taking pictures because I've never been any good at it and I've always admired a good photo. Why not cultivate the skill myself?
