I'm trying to get a little more into people photography. A good friend of mine agreed to let me use her for practice, to kinda start building portfolio. So here are a couple or so that I took.

Honest Scrap

My dearest seester Jennifer tagged me..so here goes. boy this is kind of a like those "About Me's" where you just don't know what to write...or maybe that's just me.

So here are 10 honest to goodness things about me. Honestly.

1. I spent most of my childhood wanting to be a ranching/ FBI/CIA agent when I grew up, and spent a lot of time acting like a secret agent.

2. I, like my sister, used to be horribly shy, I started to slowing grow out of it when I got a job. But am not hardly at all since I started working at the hardware last year.

3. I am deathly afraid of spiders.

4. I love old Disney movies.

5. I always thought it would be awesome to live back in like medieval times, and I still wanna own a sword.

6. I very rarely admit to something upsetting, or bothering me.

7. I am a sinner, saved by the Grace of Jesus.

8. I don't do well being in groups of people, would much rather just be with a one or two good friends.

9. I can't fall asleep unless I'm on my stomach, unless I'm just really tired.

10. I am a huge bookworm

and now I will tag some people, just not nine. sorry.

An adventure of sorts

It all started this morning, my boss calls me and tells me to have the day off. So I spend the day doing school, reading, a other various things. Four rolls around and I decide to go drive around see if I can find anything interesting to take pictures of. I turn off onto this one road, realize its a wee bit sandy so go to turn around and leave...and I..well get stuck. More liked buried my pickup in the sand. I have no cell service whatsoever.

So I spend the next few hours trying to dig myself out with numerous objects. I almost get out a few times, but just don't make it. It was then that I started to feel somewhat hopeless. I was stuck in the middle of nowhere, quite a while from home, and no cell service. I didn't know what to do, I sat there, I walked around muttering, I started to pray. There were a couple of places I could get one bar on my phone, but anytime I tried calling out all I got was "call failed." I came so close to throwing my phone. Course that wouldn't have done any good. I'm not much of a crier, but I was coming close. For the first hour I was ok, not really all that worried about it. But as time goes on, sun starts going down, I was getting a little worried. Finally I just started walking, and get a couple bars, so I try calling, praying it goes through, and it does! I'm not sure I've ever felt more relieved.

My parents came for my rescue. Sad things is, once I was out and rescued my dads pickup got stuck. Whoa boy. So we spent the next few hours trying to HIS out. We finally did, after wondering if we'd ever get it out. But we did, and right as a storm was blowing in. Thank you Jesus. So below are a couple of pictures.

yep

my self portrait of my distressed self :P

it actually got stuck TWO times. We got it out once, only to have it get stuck once again.


I'm kinda glad that adventure is over. I think I will look back and laugh, probably pretty soon. Right now I'm just glad I'm not sitting out there in a storm, covered in dirt and smelling like exhaust.

.. (:

So exactly what is this business about it being September already!?! Aye. Just don't know where this year has gone. I do have to apologize for my lack of blogging. See, I always say when I get home from work, hey I'm going to blog later on tonight...then I decide..ah I'll just blog tomorrow...and then there is just this vicious cycle that starts, and I never end up blogging. But now here I am. So what is going on in my life? Well not to much really. Work, and the rest. Football season has started, woot woot. Friday night football games are always fun. I have a new colt, he's a year and a half, blind in one eye, and a stud, and I didn't pay a dime for him. My brother traded work for him from a good buddy of his. Its different working with one like that, but I'm always down for a new experience ;)

What else? hm.. I...ran outta gas on the way home from work the other day!! yea that was fun. I'm really smart. But hey it happens? ...right? yeah yeah I know, only to me cause the rest of you are smart and actually put gas in your vehicles.

but anyways.

Is that all the tales I have to tell....looks like it. As it is I'm feeling not to bueno at this moment, don't know if I'm coming down with something or what. So this is the extent of my post.

Until next time, adios.
