ひさしぶり！
It's been a long time eh? ^_^
On the contrary I have not given up on photography! In fact my creativity has been revived and inspired! This past Friday I got a taste of what spring would be like here! Today is actually the first day of Spring! My first semester of uni was awesome! Academically I could have done better. Much better -_-. So thing semester I have been focusing on the latter (actually I should be writing my English essay now... ) This journey of me cleansing my insides and out has been a long one with subtle changes but I'd like to think I'm become a better person.

Anyways, enough of me. I hope whoever reads this will keep the world in their prayers. In light of recent world events please: Pray for the people of Japan, especially for the Dai-ichi plant workers who knowingly expose themselves to the radiation in order to eventually save the lives of everyone else in Japan. Pray for the warring between the people and government in Libya and Croatia. There can never be enough prayers you know. Do what you can to help as well. I can guarantee what is going on in your life is nothing compared to those suffering across the seas.

On my spring break I did a bit of traveling and brought my Nikon along so I will being showing some soon!

Best of luck to all!

P.S Oh dear. I've gone and become a Tumblr addict btw. >_< Feel free to follow: vansayshello.tumblr.com

<sub>No see! I've been so busy with school...haha not really. Somewhat. Getting a bit of writer's block as applied to photography.
But!
It's my favourite time of the year. The holidays. YAY. That means: FINALS , CHRISTMAS MUSIC ON THE RADIO , and most of all WINTER BREAK!!
I'm really bored of school now, work-wise. Definitely not as interesting as when the semester started. Anyways, ttyl until break starts or so. (I'll actually be pretty busy...)

BTW! It's almost been 4 years since I've been on dA. I'm proud of what dA has grown into and I'm glad to stick by all these years
AND almost 10k views XD that would be pretty cool.

Well, until next time,
PEACE!

...

APRIL FOOLS?!

That was a bad joke...



P.S Yay for warm weather!!</sub>

<sub>Oh Tim Burton I am highly disappointed! The visuals were amazing but if i were to watch it again I would watch it in 2-D. The way he incorporated the story was meh. He kept jumping from one thing to another where parts would be too vague. Too much Mad Hatter too. We all love dear Johnny but it is Alice in Wonderland. So very disappointed. I've been so excited to see ever since I heard of it's production too! I thought Tim Burton and Alice would =WIN.

Oh well what can you do. For now I'm looking forward to Kick-Ass

Au Revior mes ami

P.S Finally warm and beautiful weather is slowly creeping</sub>

<sub>Is anyone else getting addicted to watching them?? It's getting into my head, I'm actually getting inspiration from the athletes!! It's really amazing. Winter sports are so intense I don't even know all the winter sports but hearing about the stories behind each nation's athlete is pretty amazing. Yeah so, if you have the time you should give it a watch. It's basically on 24/7 So far Pairs Figure Skating and Short Track has caught my attention best
Vancouver is such a beautiful city, lots of chinese people lol, and druggies but other than that! Huge place, been there about 5-6 years ago lol!

Alright enough of that,
Peace!

GO TEAM U.S.A !!! GO FOR THE GOLD !!!</sub>

<sub>If you haven't seen Avatar yet *ahem* ~hippiechan*ahem* you should be ashamed of yourself as a human being. It is such a beautiful film. Everything about it is gorgeous, the scores, cinematography, choreograghy, the CGI, the acting, PANDORA, amazing. It's totally worth the extra for 3D. I'm planning to see it again in IMAX

On another note please pray for the victims of the Haitian earthquake and be so kind as to donate to a charity. Every dollar does count after all.

The whole connection of the energy of the world and Pandora and nature and even Haiti's situation...it just all connects and voila a new-found truth in life

It's a beautiful thing!

Well back to the flow of life-procrastination on a 4x6' composition</sub>

<sub>New Year's Res: Get my shit together
In the end it's only Me, Myself and I
It would be awesome if I could go to college...yeah

On another note I like the ring of "oh-nine" better than just "ten" or is it said like "oh-ten"? Because if you say it like "oh-ten" then it's spelled/typed "010" and that looks retarded/like a virus...and just like Ellen said we can't wear the 2-0-0-9 jawns on our eyes any more

Peace & love nikkas</sub>

<sub>I hate to see my precious Rain template go away but I have a question...

Does anyone know a GOOD quality photo printing service, where I can customized the proportions(instead of the standard 8X10, 5x7 etc.)?? I just need 1 print for one image so it's not like 500 prints or anything >.>

So far I've found none =_= or maybe I'm just a bad google-er</sub>

<sub>Circle circle dot dot

What do you do when you run out of options?????</sub>

<sub>I don't ever really watch sports in general except football and gymnastics, but I LOVE my city!! GO PHILLIES~~
I actually spent 30 minutes watching! I can only watch about the 5-7 innings or I'll bring them bad luck I'm scurred though, the Yankees are formidable opponents!! But hopefully I can see Kate Hudson w/ ARod :]

I made a video too if you're interested!:[link] Yes, I am a nerd.

PEACE
and GO PHILS</sub>

<sub>I went to NYAF this weekend! I went with 3 friends but they all left me to go see something I wasn't really interested in. I took a lot pictures of cosplay, but as expected the indoor lighting was horrendous. I was like an old perverted man taking creepy angles of girls HEHEHEHEHEHE. That's what I really am I'll probably make a video of it. I'll most likely edit the pictures as well as the pictures from the beautiful city of Paris on the weekend because I'm a lazy ass like that.

Overall NYAF=meh

Paris was awesome(vacation wise). It has such beautiful people and atmosphere. The cars are tiny, everyone has motos, the metro is love, bread w/jam everyday is filling, smoking/drinking in daylight at brassaries are commonplace, and wearing stilettos while walking the dog is perfectly fine. The language barrier was really not a problem. English was everywhere and 2 years of learning it helped a lot. Luckily I had native relatives who took me around so I didn't really look like a tourist. I can spot any tourist from a mile away. Especially americans D:. I loved being around such effortlessly fashionable people and stopping by cafes about 5 times a day. The French really know how to live the life! Unfortunately I didn't go just for a vacation; I went to go visit my dying cousin. Time is so precious. He passed away the day I landed back home. I'm grateful for him holding on for that long. Rest in peace W. He was only 18. The prime of his life.

<sub>Ponyoooo Ponyooooooooooooo!!!!!!

I've been neglecting you dear...but I have news! I'll be Paris bound on vendredi...ma francais es TRES mauvais TAT

I'm tremendously excited X____X Can't wait to visit the BTSSB store there too, lots of opportunities photographing wise...!!

See you in 2 weeks America!!!</sub>

<sub>Rest in peace King of Pop, may your music and career continue on to inspire millions of dancers, artists, creators and people like you and me.

THE LEGEND HAD PASSED ON.

Ever since I saw him on T.V in my dentist's waiting room, I was hooked. I admire him as a person, his music and what he's done, even if he had his creepy moments. It's a conspiracy I say! He "died" like Tupac He didn't even get to give his last tour. He passing is really saddening...at least he is in peace.

On another note I was able to capture decent pictures in the big apple. But again I am broke as a mofo. I bought too many magazines from kinonuniya =_= My mate and I got lost a little but was fun!

I hate east coast weather so HARD.

Peace Out!

P.S Oh and the WonderGirls are touring w/ the JoBros, WTF is all I have to say...</sub>
