She watched the day slip away from her, slowly at first, turning from a lovely bright pink to an iridescent orange, bright cornflower blue to a deep navy, the peak of the distant western shores’ volcano standing starkly above the ridge of hills on the other side of the plateau, and then, suddenly, it was night. And the cold seeped through the thin jacket she had with her. A fire should have...

Magic Lost
I hate when things start to lose their magic. You know when you find something new you enjoy and it makes you smile and thoughtful and wonder and imagine and gives you energy and vigor and a light feeling. This was moving to the big city for me.
I am a country girl born and raised, given it was two different countries. Born in Busselton, Australia (you’re forgiven for not knowing where...

So I’m guessing once you start dreaming about fire breathing evil dudes, trying to kill all occupants of a small village surrounding a castle, meanwhile you’re trying to save said occupants by hiding them in the castle walls and yelling at the guy who has the key to stopping it to use it already, that you have probably been reading too much The Hobbit, am I right? Yea I should probably...
Dragon
This Christmas camping trip I took a photo of a Dragon, yes you read right and no I am not delusional. I intend to paint this dragon onto a nice piece of canvas. I will then photograph the painting on the canvas and post it. It’s a rather fierce looking dragon, or atleast from a couple of angles. Horns all over his head, teeth of every size, armour on his legs, wings that looked a bit like...

Important Lesson #3 - The third dog
One day a small dog was wandering along a lane outside of a village. He was passing by a field when he heard some dogs having quite an argument. Well, he was too afraid that they might be larger than him and things were getting quite heated so he thought he would stay out of the argument and wait to see if he could be of some assistance if things went too awry. Pretty soon the argument turned into...

Important Lesson #2 - "The Obstacles In Our Path"
In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king’s wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the King for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way. Then a peasant came along carrying a load...
Important Lesson - "Remember Those Who Serve"
In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10 year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him. “How much is an ice cream sundae?” he asked. “50¢,” replied the waitress. The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the coins in it. “Well, how much is a plain dish of ice...
jnetlaughs asked: I love your random remarks. Don't ever stop! And are your most recent posts your photos??
Are you looking into learning more about photography? The photography classes I took completely helped.
You.went.skydiving. Seriously?? That's on my bucket list. How awesome was it?? Were you terrified?
And what prompted you to buy an auto electrical business? How is that...

jnetlaughs asked: Hi!! I can't wait to see your own photography! Post up your pictures soon :) What kinds of things do you like taking photos of?
Oh man and I might think you were psycho if I didn't feel the exact same thing when I have a cute little baby in my arms. But my thoughts are more "Ahhhhh i want to eat you up you are so FREAKING cute!!!" When I'm holding little baby...

Photography Rant
I’ve decided I am not a photography traditionalist, for the mere reason that I have decided that they all seem to be digital snobs. “Euw digital, get that away, digital evil” - actual reaction I got the other day when I pulled out my camera to snap a few shots. My response “It’s easy and cheap”. But it’s not just that. I bet I take better photos than...
X-treme procrastination
Photos tomorrow but for now.. I invented a new thing over the weekend. See I was supposed to be writing a 2500 word essay on rhetoric over the weekend, already you can see where this is heading, right? Then, whilst attempting to get my brain to do the thing it was made to do, it had a brain blast. “I know! I’ll cut my hair, myself, in the mirror, in the bathroom.” No really, it...
