100 Themes

Hellos -

So Summer is coming...well it kind of is Summer, but anyways - I'm going to be doing a lot of Photography in the month of July but I want all or at least a good share of my Summer to be spent behind the camera! Or reading or something along those lines, and so I was looking at this blog, and the blogger had posted something about 100 themes but for writing. I took that list, and like 3 other lists and made my own list. I am going to start June 1st and end (how I manged to do this I have no idea) on my birthday, which is in September! I'll try to post each one here everyday, but if I forget, please leave a comment and I'll post them!

I'm going to try to get some in black and white, but I have put down in the list color names, so a few will be in color. You can see my list for yourself here, and if you'd like to do this also. I need a link to your blog cause I want to see what you come up with! :)

hmm.

So it's been slightly a busy week. If you can call it busy. I doubled up my school work, as I only have 6 weeks left. And yes I know most people are already on Summer break, but I usually don't get Summer offs. This year is like my first Summer off and I'm pretty excited! I already have a bunch of stuff I'd like to do! Anyways - I doubled up my work, and altogether if I had done it all at once I would have been done in about 2 hours or so. To sum it up, I wasn't that busy this week.

NaNoWriMo - for those of you who don't know - gives out that Createspace thingyyy if you win, and so I finished mine! It's 56 pages of poetry. Sorta bad poetry, but poetry all the same~ And so I'm looking forward to getting my free copies!

There isn't much else to talk about today.

Kind of out of it tonight.

Hope you all have a great night~

b&w Images!

Afternoon!

So today, I don't really have anything else to do, so I'm going to show off some black and white images! Since b&w is sorta where I got the blog title from, why not share some? So last Sunday we went to the national park and being in the woods obviously produces wood-like-images.

I usually keep most of my images in color, but I've been obsessing with the whole b&w look. As a friend and I proceeded to say in a comment conversation on Facebook:
me: They like...I have no idea how to explain it. It gives it like /more/ then it does with color.

 

her:  Exactly! I'm not sure how to put it in words either. There's just a certain depth to it that's so beautiful.

Which I realize makes pretty much no since, buuuut. It does explain how b&w images feel to well us. Black and white images have something about them that color images can't give. At least I think so.

Thoughts?

Rambling

I decided to write something small today. As 1) it's Saturday 2) I woke up an hour ago 3) which makes it 2:48 PM where I live 4) which is a very hot place. Also I have to write something small because I'm not exactly supposed to be on the computer at this time of day. *cough* I'm a very normal teenager alright! Kind of. Okay not really normal at all. Conceding the fact that I write about dragons and humans at war. Actually that was when I was 12. I've aged some since then. Okay like 3 years. Shhh.

Well that was kind of stupid. As was my last post. (I totally did not already write up a response to that post pftt what are you talking about?) And my humor sounds so much better in real life. Just sayin'. So I was going to stay up all night last night, but couldn't stay awake any longer at about 4am. My sister was also staying up with me, and went to bed when my dad went to work. She has a lot of energy okay? Plus us teenagers like sleep. At least I think. I know I like sleep.

One thing I really would like to do right now though is go to a concert. @_@ I've been to 2 already this...wait...last year I went to 2! This year I have the joy of having gone to none. AND the one band I want to go and see my dad won't take us too! (Us being my sister and I) Why you ask? Because "they are liars and aren't Christian." ....Dad....some people view the lyrics differently...? Either way can't talk my dad into seeing them live again (might I add the first time was AMAZING). Which sucks. Greatly. Because I love them so.

Anyways, I'm rambling. I don't even know what I'm writing this for anymore. Hmm. Oh! So apparently I've sent 10,853 text messages.

...

I'm so lucky I didn't die last night. I am so lucky we have unlimited text messaging. My dad said *cough* it's like 300+ a day which means 30 messages an hour, as I'm only awake say 12. ....I'm not sure how this happened.

Okay I'm pretty darn sure how it happened, buuuuuut yeah.

Oh, and so this magazine I sent pictures too still hasn't responded and its making me mad. I sent one back at the start of May, and I forward it to them again a couple of days ago. They usually respond by saying they go the email and will let me know if they chose any of my images. They haven't even done that yet. I'm not exactly worried about it, but I would love to have another picture in the magazine. I guess I'll have to deal. Which I don't want to do. I should probably just research some magazines that are looking for nature images.

Anyways, I better get going. My grandparents are coming over later tonight (like every other Saturday) and we're celebrating my dad's birthday, as it was yesterday~
Hope everyone has a good weekend!
