so, i realize that my last post was REALLY depressing, but i guess that's what happens when you are trapped in the computer room after have something really depressing happen, you write about it. but really you all should count your blessing, because the first two drafts were worse... moving on, i really wanted to make one of those cool slide show things to showcase my pictures from the car show, because i got some really good ones! seems how i was at the car show i took pictures of, you guessed it, shoes! and i got some really good ones at that! but i couldn't seem to figure out how to do the slide show, so i'm going to have to do that one later, but for now i want to show you guys my three favorite pictures right now. the one to my left is of this mans shoes, they were like toe socks!! but made of this super cool light weight stuff that somehow made it a shoe! it was sooooo cool! i had been getting away with taking lots of pictures of peoples feet all day without them knowing, but this guy was a tough cookie! i had to stalk him to get a good shot!! i really felt like a stalker for real! all creepy inside and everything, but it was worth it! let's just say i love these "shoes" and i want a pair of them so that i too can feel like i am at one with the ground beneath me.
this next picture to my right is my cake!! see, i knew that i was going to fail my math test this past Tuesday, so instead of facing my problems head on like i should i did what i always do, ignore it and instead do something fun! Kinda like right now... (cough, cough...) anyway, i made this cake, it was so much fun, and i was up way late doing it. i kinda just let it flow. now i'm sure it's not the best cake ever made, but i have gotten several "wows" from people, so that is really good enough for me! i made it for Paul, because you can't just make a cake to make it, and i saved it till tonight, (Thursday) to give it to him at the 9:00pm basketball game at the church. well as it turns out, it was a 8:oopm game and Paul wasn't there... i felt silly walking in with this huge fancy cake, to watch a game that had just ended... oh man. anyway, the last picture makes me happy because i've always been a fan of Photography, as a teenager i started collecting beautiful photos from fashion magazines, many of which i still have today. (it's not that i am a pact rat, i've got a "plan" for them) but the thing is i'd always try and take a picture and it always turns out like crap. i always think in my head, "oh this angle would make a great photo!" and it never does, so i took this picture of greektown and WA-LA! a good picture! i have to say of this one (and a few others that will be in the slide show) that i am very happy with it. in fact, i'd say it's artistic. :O) i don't know why but i like it! i'm going to call it "greektown" very original i know! anyway, i'll get back to you guys with the slid show, but for now this is a little taste of the goodness to come!
