Well, last night I decided to create a Flickr account (there's a link in the sidebar). I'm hoping that it will get me back in the habit of taking pictures and actually posting them somewhere. I mean, facebook is OK for uploading some pictures, but I have to load my account down with the thousands of pictures I take of scenery that probably only interests me! So, I have a challenge for myself for the month of February: upload one picture every day to Flickr. It should be easy enough since I now have a camera again and I also have the ability to upload pictures taken on my phone. (Yay for technology! haha) So we'll see how far I get.... I think the main problem will be me just having to remember to take a picture, or to take a picture of something really neat and not just keep walking past it and regretting it later. For instance, in my Intro Culinary class this morning, the teacher shattered the door to the oven. Granted, it was all on accident, but it was still really funny and would have been a great picture. Yet, I didn't take a pic and now I regret it. So, here's to renewing my interest and dedication to photography!

I really wish that I thought to update this more often than I do. I guess I just get so caught up in what I'm doing and totally forget that it's even here. I mean, I have a lot that I want to say, but then when I actually sit down I never know how to put it. I don't know what's happened. I used to write all the time and now I never do. Maybe I should just try to set aside time for me to sit down and write stuff down until the creativity comes back. I miss having this as an outlet, being able to put everything I'm feeling down, and then go on with my day. Maybe I'll get better at this....









I know I've probably used these pictures before, but I just really love them for some reason. Or maybe it's just for the fact that I'm missing home.
