i didn't tell everyone, but i was up in connecticut for the past week because my grandpa died. (i think you can tell what pictures i took in florida) so, on the day before we left to drive back home, my sister and i finally got to go to my grandpa's house to see what we can find. my mom found my dad's old asahari pentax k1000 film slr camera! sure, i need film for this beautiful camera, but it's amazing to practice pictures. although, there's a story behind this camera:
my dad worked all of one summer to buy this camera. he eventually shot a wedding when he was fourteen with this camera. all he remembered to bring was black and white film, but he still shot it. when he gave the pictures to the couple who got married, they told him he did better than the professional photographer they asked to shoot it too. and remember, he was fourteen and only had black and white film.
i also found an old polaroid (not shown) and that teeny-tiny camera up there was what my parents found the first day. the polaroid is a polaroid easyset (that's the closest i could find to the camera). i'm really excited to buy film for each camera and start snapping photos! now my full introduction:
•••
i'm an eleven year old animaniac (yes i am yakko, wakko, and dot combined baby!) who has lost a friend named maggie, and this friend (hopefully she hasn't changed her web address...) by my personality. i have tiny anger issues (okay, maybe more than tiny...), and am stalker whenever it comes to friends. i get that from my best friend and being around her too long. (she will always be my best friend though, and i get the stalker part from her only) i regret what i did every minute i think of them.
so, my life is a big imperfection. i've been realizing everything about me is wrong after reading a bunch of blog posts on being genuine and honest. (i will place the blog posts at the end of the post)
please forgive me for not being true on this blog. i am so sorry. now, to the basics about me:
i am eleven. i am a girl. i love books. i love taylor swift. i love adele. i triple love bridgit mendler. i double love one direction. i am a huge Christian. i was saved september 22nd, 2009 when i was eight-years old. i love jamie grace. i double love tobymac. i triple love lindsay mccaul. i triple love casting crowns. i love writing. i love tea. i dislike coffee. i double dislike soda-pop. i triple dislike the shows shake it up, dog with a blog, and austin and ally. i love once upon a time. i double love dancing (even though i look like i'm dying when i dance...) i triple love photography. i quad love singing. i qui love you!
