High in the Sky

October 12, 2009 – 11:58 pm

Highinthesky_09

Its been cold here but with nice sunny skies. I am not complaining yet. Amazingly I have not put the heat on in my room today. My mom would be happy if I froze to death with no heat all winter. She expects me to layer clothes. Is she crazy. That will get too heavy. I can survive in a tank top, a sweatshirt and jeans all winter. Crazy me.

The photo was taken yesterday. These trees happily live next to the cabin. Standing tall and going high up in the sky. I like the look of the photo. What do you think? Ah, anyways I am happy because I have no school tomorrow. Woot. Another day of relaxation and oh yea do some homework. Well, right now I am going to surf the big open web and listen to the music that I play always. I hope everyone had a nice Monday and did not freeze. Peace.

Bust the Bullies

September 16, 2009 – 11:35 pm

chair_of_artI got a topic to talk about today. Bullying. No no no I am not getting bullied. I am not an easy person to bully and I do not remember really anytimes I have been bullied. I live in an area that is pretty accepting of people. Anyways, today in my school we had our usual beginning meeting and they brought it up. I actually know a lot about it just because I have heard different stories about people who got bullied. Did you know there is a law in New Jersey for bullying? Yes, you can get charged for bullying or harassing someone. The law will get you.

So, it is actually sad to hear the different bullying stories. You hear stories of children being bullied in school and out of school. The really sad part is parents will contact the schools and sometimes the staff there do not believe the child is being bullied or it is serious so they just let it go. There is a big problem with that. Being bullied can really affect a person. Just imagine everyday you know someone is going to put you down, push you around and just hurt you mentally and physically. It can change a person dramatically. Sadly, some people can not handle the suffering anymore and they commit suicide to get rid of the bullying.

We can really stop bullying if we all work hard to prevent it. There is bullying all around us even if you think there is not. I think its really important for all schools to take bullying seriously and do everything they can to stop it. Not everyone who gets bullied reaches out for help but a lot of them do and we just need to help them before it is too late. Bullying is wrong and painful. If you ever witness bullying report it to someone. Do not just walk by. I will tell you something. I do not think I am the kind of person to just walk by if I saw someone being bullied. I stand up for people and help them out. That is what I do and I am proud of it. Stop bullies one bully at a time.

Moving on, isnt it a cool photo? I took this with photobooth on my imac. It is my desk chair at my computer desk. As you can see I drew all over it. Gave it my own special touch. I sure love the paws I drew on the chair. Why did I draw all over it? Well, I like to draw and I was bored so I took a sharpie and just started drawing. The chair is not done yet. I wanna cover it with more drawings when ideas come to my brain. Just a little bit of my artistic side. Hope you like it.

Well, time to just relax before I crash. Jam to some good tunes and read some news. Listen to rain falling from the dark sky outside and laugh at Callie being her crazy self. I sure love that cat. Anyways, I hope you all had a nice non bullying day. Talk to you soon. Peace.

Unique is Good

August 27, 2009 – 11:59 pm

CallieKitten I got some exciting news! I got my nikon d40 back today. Yes I did. I am so excited. The minute I got it back in my hands I started taking photos of Callie, my dogs and just anything. I missed it so much that I just can barely put it down now. I love you my nikon d40. My love of my visions.

Now, lets get to the topic of the post. Being unique. Yes, we all know at least one of them and if you do not well now you do. It is not easy being unique. At least from my experiences. I am telling you that I do not fit in easily with people. There are not very many who understand me or take the time to. It is not hard to if you just take the time and observe and listen.

First off for a teenager I definitely do not fit in very well. I am not one of those girly girls and I am very independent. I do not follow all the interests of the other teenagers. They like clothing, makeup, miley cyrus, drugs and etc. Not me. Mine main interests include dogs, photography, bicycling and social media. Those are the interests I surround myself around. I aint interested in talking about clothing for hours or painting my nails. Yea, I guess you can call me partly tom boyish but really I do not fit in that category either. I fit under unique or special.

Another thing is I am not very closed minded. I am open minded on most things. Would you judge a book by its cover? Well, maybe you do but I wouldnt if I was ever going to read a book. I do not judge people by what I see. I give everyone a chance to get a long with me. I do not close my mind on other people’s opinions either. I will let them say what they believe. I am not saying I will agree but it is not like I am going to hate you or something by your thoughts and opinions.

So, to all you unique people out there. Be proud of being unique. You are not alone. There may be very few of us out amd may stand out but that will make us succeed in life. You may feel like no one likes you but I have found some people out there who cherish us. Ones who like unique. Do not give up and do not hide. be yourself and thats all that matters.

So, this photo of Callie was taken with my nikon. Woot! Finally some good quality photos. She is so cute and I just love the angle of this photo. Anyways, I am going to relax and listen to some music. I hope to talk to you all soon. Peace.

Woof Wednesday

August 26, 2009 – 8:48 pm

LadyI found out today is a special day for all dogs. While surfing the net in the morning I came across a post. It said National Dog Day. I was like oh my gosh today is national dog day and I did not know? Where have I been? Miss dog lover here and I did not know this. Wake up Anna! So, to all dogs out there, happy national dog day.

Update on my camera. My mom stopped by the store on the way home to see if any progress of getting it back soon was any possibility. She is such a great mother. She made the guy call Nikon and would not leave til he did. They said they finally shipped it out back to the store so hopefully they will get it back one of these days. Which means when they get it back if Nikon did not fix it for them their guy will have to. Sad thing is this guy who fixes the cameras is not there everyday. I hope I get my camera back soon. I am missing my Nikon. I am having separation anxiety from it. My poor Nikon is probably feeling the same way without me. Don’t worry my Nikon you soon will be back in my hands where you belong.

Callie update. Well, Callie is still limping but seems like she is putting a little more weight on the foot now. I am hoping it is not just me wishing and seeing things. If it does not improve more in a couple of days she is going to the vet to make sure nothing is too hurt. My poor little gal. She still loves to be a kitty and play. Loves to keep me up at night with her toys jingling around and jumping on my bed. What a character she is. My little tortie girl.

Its a photo of Lady. My photogenic girl. She is such a beauty. Since its national dog day I just had to put a photo of one of my dogs. I brought her out front and sat her infront of some black eyed susands and just got a shot of her with my camera phone. It came out pretty nice. What do you think?

Anwyays, I am going to enjoy the night. Going to blast some good tunes, chew gum, write poetry, surf the net and talk to peeps. So if you want to talk to me and get into my little world just contact me. You all know how. Stay happy and if you have dogs don’t forget to tell them happy national dog day. Peace to you all.

honey_guineapig

Aww, look! It was one of two guinea pigs I had a few years ago. His name was Honey and I came across this photo and thought I would share it. Honey lived a long time for a guinea pig. He will always have a place in my mind and heart. R.I.P. Honey.

Fun Size and Friend

August 13, 2009 – 9:31 pm

handsWhat’s fun size? That is my nickname because I am very short. Only about five feet tall. So, people started to call me that and I think it fits me well. I may be small but I am big in the soul, mind and heart. Do not let my size fool you.

feetToday my friend and I hung outside for awhile. We had fun chit chatting and just hanging out. We had a good time taking lots of photos of each other and stuff around us. As you can see he is much taller than me. Well, really anyone is taller than me but he is around six feet tall. I look small next to him. I am fun size!

When I came inside I was thinking about what I should do without my Nikon camera. I figured it out. I decided I will record lots and lots of videos of all sorts of things. Over the next few days I will be recording a lot. I did some taping today. There are eleven new videos of my dogs on my Youtube channel. Yes, all of the new videos are of my three dogs. Crazy dog gal here. Check them out. Comment and rate please. Thanks.

So what do you think of the two photos? I thought they were pretty cool and came out nicely for a camera phone. But that is why I got the Samsung Sway was for the good reviews about the camera. The battery life may suck but the camera is a plus. Hope you all had a nice day also. I will talk to you all soon. Peace.

Photo Class Top 4

July 8, 2009 – 6:48 pm

I know I haven’t posted in awhile which I seriously need to get back to doing more often. I have been busy and just plain lazy. Summer days getting to my head. Okay, so anyways. I am doing this three day photography class which is fun and good practice for me. Monday was the first class and I took 85 photos and printed out my top four favorites. Today was my second class and the two teachers who were two of the judges at the photo contest I entered for my town like them. I just thought I would share them with all of you and get your comments and critiques about them. Enjoy

Gray Go Away

June 24, 2009 – 2:14 am

Dark_Gray_Sky_TreesThe weather has been cloudy and rainy for about two weeks now and I am sick of it. It is causing me to have a massive sinus headache which kept me up all night with no sleep last night. Plus it is not helping my depression I have. Once in awhile the sun shines through the clouds and I get excited that the dark thick clouds are going to move away but then the sun dissapears again. Gray sky please turn into bright blue sunny sky.

I miss taking long bicycle rides in the park and going on long photography walks around the area. I want to take the dogs to the dog park but do not want to risk and go and then it starts pouring on us. Hopefully the sun will shine and stay shining soon.

I am done with all my finals. Finished them yesterday which History was my last one. I am not sure how I did. I am hoping I did okay. Today was a half day and all we did was sit and enjoy our last day in half of the classes we have. Tomarrow is a half day of school too and we go to the other half of classes we take. Also, it is the last day of school before summer time which is very exciting. Then I am a senior. Top dog. Ruler of the school.

I have been working on my photography in photoshop and came across this photo I havent edited yet. So I decided to fix it up and put it as the blog photo because it is dark and gloomy. That is what I have been seeing in the sky for awhile now.

I am going to work on more photography. Lets hope the weather gets better so I can go on more photography walks. Especially, since I am going to my cabin in the country this weekend. Peace.
