I can't explain how I feel when I am behind a camera, but I love it. It's something so personal to me. When I am behind a camera I am able to capture the world as I see it. I think I see things a little differently than a majority of the people. I look at my homework spread out across the table and I think "wow, that's a cool composition", so I take a picture of it. I like the way my sandwich looks when I have taken a bite out of it...so I snap a picture. I think I see things differently. I also feel sort of vulnerable behind a camera. I don't want people to see me behind it. I feel embarrassed. Like somebody is reading my journal and gathering all my most precious thoughts. I don't like it. But I love it. Make sense?
I think I am going to try and find a photography school instead of pursuing psychology. Jojo, Dad, Maclaren, Mattie and the rest of my fam talked me into it. If taking pics is what I love, then why am I kidding myself by trying something else?
And then at the same time I try and talk myself out of this...why? I don't think I can capture photos of people very well.
But so what? WHo says I have to take pics of people? And who says I can' improve?
I'm just talking to myself here.
I thought I had lost one of my most favorite cd's and today after MONTHS of looking for it, I found it. I am ecstatic.
