How do you say shit in German?
Saturday, July 4, 2009 @ 11:06 PM

I am currently working on a photo series. It's not done yet, but yeah, here's a teaser.



What do you think?

I'm not sure when I can finish it. I am a lazy person and I procrastinate a lot and I keep putting things off and all those shit. People who emailed and asked for prints can attest to this and if you think I sound like I don't care, then you are fucking wrong because as a matter of fact, I think about you guys and your requested prints everyday and deep in the chambers and valves of my heart, I feel terribly embarrassed and sorry for having not sent them into the post office yet. They are already in their respective envelopes since May. I even took a picture of them with my phone camera and planned to post it here to keep you updated, but my stupid memory card got corrupted again, so yeah, the pictures are gone... forever. But I digress. There's only one thing I am sure of and I can promise: I will send the prints and I swear you will receive it no later than Christmas. How's that? Haha. But seriously, I will send them as soon as I had the energy to go to the post office. Just you wait. Again, I am sorry and thank you for your unparalleled patience and I'm hoping you're still looking forward to receiving them. :)


God, I hate writing long paragraphs.

Happy weekend!



Pay the money and take a shot.

Two test rolls down, one more to go! :)


*Starting today, I will cross-post some entries in this blog to Tumblr. Any objections? None? Very good.






If I were asked to choose which areas of photography I'd like to specialize in, I'd choose fashion, documentary and wedding.

I've never taken any photography class nor attended seminars and workshops before. (Come on, take a look at my gallery/photostream and it'll show you how badly I need formal lessons/training!)


P.S. It's 6:18 a.m.
P.P.S. I am not yet sleepy.
P.P.P.S. Throw me some questions!
P.P.P.P.S. Please don't ask me what camera I'm using. This question has been asked a hundred times already and honestly, it doesn't sound sweet anymore.

Cheers.



I just wasted ten seconds of your life.

I don't think I'd ever fall out of love with the light.

My mind is full of creative visions. I don't know why I can't make any of them happen. I'm starting to think there's a fault between my brain and my camera.

I am so happy I'm reading again. Who should I read first: Gaiman, Murakami or Palahniuk?

I want a new lens and a fucking flash and a slim girl who can do a shoot somehow similar to this and this. I think I heard someone say exciting.

The weather has been abominable these past days. I hate it. I miss the sun.

Three, six, three
I wish the rain would stop
Where's the sun?

Black and white
I am deeply in love
Film is rad

I have new
Magazines, cameras
Great delight

This is hard
I really like haiku
Bashō's glad


Tumblr, Twitter, Plurk.




I don't know if I should post a picture.

Things that recently made me happy:

1. This amazing photography book

2. Smucker's Goober Peanut Butter & Grape Jelly Stripes

3. Banana Apple flavored probiotic drink which I've been drinking everyday for the past two weeks

4. The wonderful cinematography of Slumdog Millionaire

5. Being able to update my Tumblr with pictures

6. Answering questions

7. Love, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli

Rant.

When people follow you on Twitter and Tumblr, is it necessary to follow them too?

Don't you find it despicable when people link/follow/add you solely because they want you to link/follow/add them back in return?

Is it a crime if you want your timeline and dashboard immaculately clean and free of posts that do not appeal to you?

I failed to update my Project 52. To compensate for that, I decided to update my Tumblr. Expect to see photos that fall into either of the following categories:

a. Too crappy to be posted in any of my online galleries
b. Too good to be thrown in the bin
c. Have been sitting in my hard drive for months

I feel Tumblr is fun and easy. I love how one is able to "like" posts made by other users!

Let's start tumbling!



We moved too fast and tripped into the guestroom.

May 17 (Sunday) - Condo Open House somewhere in Quezon City. We love the playground, the pool and the house interiors! :D



















By the way, I have to say thank you to everyone who looks at this blog and your nice comments. Thank you. I appreciate it greatly. :)

Shameless plug! [Twitter, Plurk, deviantART, Flickr]





May 15-16 - We went to Our Lady of the Manaoag Cathedral in Pangasinan. Shortly thereafter, we went to Baguio, for the millionth time, just because my mom remembered she wanted to buy something. So we went there and since it was too tiring to go home that same day, we decided to have an overnight stay in a hotel. I managed to take some pictures.



People lighting their candles at the cathedral.


I don't know her but I love how the light hit her hair. :)


My brother waiting for Restaurant City, his new addiction, to load.


This is what you see when you look outside our hotel window.


Past midnight.


Self-portrait.


My brother drew this on the window.


And I drew this! :)


I am really enjoying Twitter. It's now the first website I open every time I go online! Every once in a while I try to post a picture there taken with my crappy phone camera. But it's all good. ;p



Please send me icing and decorating sets.

Three things I'm loving right now:

1. Film photographs
2. Black and white
3. Twitter

Ever wonder why there are a lot of people born in November?

Ha. ;)
