You're awesome, basically. I pretty much had a heart attack when you flickrmailed me months back telling me you liked my photos, so that can prove to you how much I love your work. Every single one of your photos are so crisp, and refreshing. I find myself going to your photostream to get inspiration. Also, I am jealous of you and all of your amazing things that you do in your life. Just thinking about it makes me want to choke a small sloth. Speaking of sloths, you sing very impressive songs about them. (with credit to yours truly for the lyrics, of course) I would not be surprised if that paragraph in your profile is true................

you're real, you know? you are who you are and your pictures show it. i really enjoy that.

There's not one picture of his that I don't like. Both his self portraits and portraits in general are very captivating. And just looking at his photos from where he first started to now is so inspiring. lastly, his last name and my first name are ridiculously similar and that makes me like him that much more.

June 28, 2009

Aside from his brilliant taste in music, his photography is quite amazing. I always get excited to see what he has to post.

An all around cool guy. And he takes good pictures too. Isn't that a nice trait to throw in there? And check out his 'song of the day.' You'll at least find one song suitable for you from alex's large knowing of artists and songs.

Along with beautifully taken photos, he is one of the nicest people you will meet. In addition, if you looked up hard work and creativity in the dictionary, he'd be there. Be sure to keep updated with his photos, because you can miss a golden treasure

What the poop is wrong with me? How could I possibly have gone this long and not written you one of these?! (is that sentence super awkward sounding, or is that just me?)

What the poop is wrong with me? How could I possibly have gone this long and not written you one of these?! (is that sentence super awkward sounding, or is that just me?) Well, anyways, I'm awful with words so I'll keep it short. In addition to have an awesome name, you've become an incredible friend that I've been able to share so much with in such a short period of time. You've heard my secrets and always manage to help me with stupid day to day problems. And even when nothing is wrong, you're always there to say "hello", "thank you" and "good bye" in random languages (in addition to the rest of a conversation) which is always entertaining. I love getting a glimpse into the complicated process and the hard work you put into your 365's, it blows me away. And even though your photos are seriously starting to take away a great deal of space on my computer, it's all alright. I can always use them to start selling your prints for my own gain, which sounds pretty appealing right about now. So I'll stop for now, and give you a quick summary in case non of the above makes sense. You. You are awesome. And we... We should be friends for a long time. One day I'll make it back home in socal and we will have so many ridiculously insane and bizarre and exciting adventures, our heads might explode. Thanks for being such an kick ass photographer and an amazing friend, you've helped me in more ways than you know.

Alex is a genius at everything. Edit: His name on here: geetarooman I am never sure how to pronounce it. Is it, "Get a room, man"? "Guitar oo man"? "Geet aroo man?" One day, I would like to know.
