Long Time No Post..

As the title says, "Long Time No Post..." I've been actually really busy with school, so I haven't really had the time to take photos and edit them. Fortunately, it's the weekend and much of the homework can be finished on either Saturday or Sunday, leaving me all of tonight to take pictures! Some of these photos were taken prior today (only one), but the rest were just random shots as I walked around the house. I felt pretty nostalgic taking photos of me in high school prom as well as me in preschool. I'm actually still in contact with a couple, as I am currently talking to one of my classmates right now!

WINGS

I hate how I can only upload 5 pictures at a time. I might switch to tumblr cause of this... argh.

Photo Session with Ryan Pham (1)

So... today I had a photosession with Mr. Ryan Pham. A LOOOT of fun. We headed out and probably spent an hour walking from and back to the car. First was because he forgot his battery. Second time was because he thought I didn't lock his side of the door. Third time was to put our sunglasses back... and to get something else. It wasn't fun walking back so far. So I asked two high school students who were biking around today if I could take photos of them, and they agreed. Before today, I had really wanted to take pictures of people riding fixies, but never really had the chance too. It was fun. Only problem was right after I asked if I could take pictures of them doing tricks, they started riding farther away from me, probably thinking my lens could cover the distance.. Unfortunately.. it couldn't. haha. That was partially my fault, but basically my first ten to twenty shots were all junk since my subject was super puny. After taking our photos, me and Ryan headed over to La Vic's for some burrito-action. Yummmm. A 50mm has some difficulty taking shots that are around 10mm away from the lens. =/ Didn't get any photos there. After a delicious meal, me and Ryan headed over to Santana Row to walk around and see if we can get any shots there. None. Everyone was moving around, and my lens isn't fast enough to get crisp shots without a tripod. I never knew Santana Row was so boisterous and lively! I've always thought it was only rich people shopping, and... that was it! Music was blasting, people were buzzing, and cigarette smoke could be breathed in at every corner! It was awesome! Only problem was I wasn't 21.. so I couldn't participate in any of these fun-filling events. (Well, clubbing and drinking). Enough of me talking, here are my pictures!

Oh yeah, my 10-22mm was finally sold today. 550 cash. =(

Me, me, and Myself.

Late Night Photoshoot (the hundred's keychain)

Today is Friday. I got my new 50mm f/1.8 lens on Wednesday.

Last night at 3 am, I decided to go take photos of random objects in my room and of myself. It was a self-photoshoot that took about 30 minutes to shoot, and around an hour to edit. It was very fun, and I really enjoyed it. The only downside of this was that I ended up only having around 6 hours of sleep. I usually need at least 8 hours of sleep to function properly, so I am kind of... not really "up" yet.

Lunch at Wingstop

My First time:

-Ordering food at wingstop and barely touching ANY OF IT.
