Permanent Status: Learning...

I shoot with a Nikon D80 (that I still don't fully know how to use properly) and I recently purchased a Nikon 150mm macro/micro lens that I am still learning how to use.

 

My lack of knowledge frustrates me!

 

If you have any tips... I am ALL ears and would be MOST grateful.

X-TRA INFO

I come from a very loving family. I have amazing parents. My mother is an angel. Without a doubt the most selfless person I have ever met. My father is so caring and pleasant to be around. Both are knock-outs! Both have contributed more than I could begin to decribe to every aspect of my life. I have found a best friend in my sister. We are pretty close in age 28 & 24. She is absolutely priceless. Continuously impressive... she is amazingly intelligent, driven, hysterical, beautiful, & well the list would just go on and on.

My friends are incredible! I value the people in my life greatly. I don't know what I would do without them. I love spending time with them. They keep me strong in my weak moments and I know no matter what I can count on them.

 

To my sister,

You are not only my sister you are my best friend. Growing up we fought, but through it all we have always been there for each other. I even loved you as I drug you out of my room by your hair haha. There will never be a closer bond of friendship than the one I share with you. I am very fortunate to have you in my life in both capacities. You are so very intelligent and I am more proud of you than I could put into words. You amaze me every day. I want nothing for you but the best of everything and if I have anything to do with it that is what you will have. Thank you for always being there and just for being you. I love you!!!!

 

Cindy,

You are without a doubt one of the most amazing people I have ever met. You are smart and funny with a personality and a wit that would just make anyone fall in love! Not to mention... you are BEAUTIFUL! You always know how to make me smile. Your unfailing love and friendship amazes me. I am so lucky to have you in my life and I would go to the ends of the earth to hear you laugh! I love you! ||Plus your hair is just badass!||

 

Jen,

You live entirely too far away. I miss you every day. I can’t wait to visit again and for you to head this way for a weekend. ((RED LOBSTER SOUNDS GREAT!! MAYBE EVEN A FEW APPLE TINIs.)) You are a beautiful person. Just as beautiful on the inside as out! You are so selfless. Sometimes I think too selfless. You are one of the most caring people I know even though you never want to take credit for anything. I always feel like I can talk to you about whatever is on my mind and I know you will listen. The years have brought us closer it’s just too bad time can’t shrink distance. I love you with all my heart!

 

Lindsay,

What can I say You are a fukin trip and a half. I am so glad that over this last year we have become close. You can never have too many drinking partners! Let me start by saying your cream cycle shot OH MY GOD. You know TMac always knows when we get there and can’t close until we leave!!! Aside from all the fun and games I have found a real genuine friend in you and I am thankful for that. You are beautiful beyond beautiful and one amazing person. I am lucky to know you. here's to the ones we love and here's to the ones who love us and to the ones we love who don't love us fuck them and here's to us!

 

Alex,

You are the craziest son of a bitch I have ever met! I simply adore you! You always make me laugh. Tell me When are the twins due again??? Hahaha The next time we are at TMac you will have to make them kick for me! BOTTOMS UP BITCHES!

 

I am married. My husband and I met on a blind date. It was quite the event. We have been together since I was 19. We were married September 15th. Four days after the tragic events that took place on 9-11. My husband is a wonderful man! We are still very much in love. Living every day one day at a time and trying to make the best of every second we have together.

 

Please don't waste your time or mine asking stupid questions like... Are you happy? Come on people. Use a little of that common sense. If I were not happy I would not still be married. Don't disrespect me by asking personal questions relating to my sex life. That is none of your business and quite frankly you are ignorant to even think for a second that I would discuss my private life with you.

 

More often than not I am a very happy person. You will rarely catch me in a bad mood and when you do it never lasts long. I am easy going & very laid back. I found out quickly that life is a lot more pleasurable when you are able to go with the flow. There is no need to stress the little things. Trivial issues will consume you if you let them. You get too busy with the unimportant and lose yourself in the confusion.

 

I am Open to everything life has to offer. I will not close the door to anything. Life is too short to be afraid to try new things. You never know what you might be missing. [If it is something you are interested in or think you might be open to it... Try it at least once! You like it - rad! Do it again! You hate it - cool, now you know.] I want to experience everything I possibly can. I am only going to live once right and just in case you are unclear... so are you.

 

I love doing anything active (my schedule permitting). I love being outdoors. I am not a big fan of clubbing or going to bars. *Not a scene queen* Id rather drink at home so that when I start acting like a tard I have no worries.

Things like athleticism, popularity, and physical prowess mean nothing here. We place no value on them ... or what car you drive, the size of your bank account, what you do for a living or where you went to school. The only thing of real value here is knowledge.

- My profile isn't too long. Your attention span is too short.

- Use your brain before ever putting fingers to keys.

- Ebonics is NOT a real form of communication. I don't give a fuck what anyone says!

- Who cares if your feelings get hurt? Probably just you and maybe your Mother. Remember that before you cry about it.

- For most of you... keeping your mouth shut will make you seem smart. Just another way of saying.. "If you don't have anything worth saying don't talk"

- Don't reply to spam. You are not going to be unsubscribed and if you think you are you are more of an idiot than I thought you were. Responding to it tells them "HEY! YOU HAVE REACHED A VALID EMAIL ADDRESS I AM READING THIS CRAP! KEEP SENDING IT!" That is probably not the message you are trying to convey. This also pertains to the idiots that continue to post bulletins about Myspace/Yahoo/BM/ whatever site you're on charging for service or deleting profiles after countless posts by the owners assuring you those bulletins are NOT REAL.

- With one or two exceptions, chat rooms and messengers will not get you laid. Leave your house once in a while people!

- Yahoo is not shutting down accounts, There are not only 3 nic names left, And they are not about to start charging you to use their messenger. It's an annoying chain message, STOP SENDING IT TO ME.

- The first person is really just trying to fuck with you for entertainment. So is the second, the third, and me.

- Never get comfortable behind your supposed mask of anonymity. It's all public information.

- No one thinks I am as cool as I think I am, but I am over that already.

- If you're on AOL, don't worry about anything I've said here. You're already fucked.

- If you can't take a joke, immediately sell your computer to someone who can. RIGHT NOW.

- Don't answer a question with a question.

- Cheesecake Cream Cheese is the shit. (those people at Philadelphia sure are smart!)

- Don't blame others for your mistakes. Take responsibility for your own actions.

- When something seems too good to be true chances are it is, but ride it until it blows up in your face! Might as well get the most out of it.

- Never mistake kindness for weakness.

- Make yourself happy. Don't wait on someone else to do it for you.

- Be yourself. There are enough other people.

MY THOUGHTS

If you don't agree that's fine. Respect my right to my own opinion as I do yours.

 

Abortion:

Bottom line...if you're responsible enough to spread your legs and conceive a child; be grown up enough to take responsibility for your actions. This includes men. It takes two. Women are not asexual. We cannot reproduce on our own. Grow up and take care of your business. Most people who have abortions are 15-24 year old women who can't handle the consequences of their actions. Notice I said MOST. Yes I know there are other circumstances. Rape being one of them. I am only speaking directly to those who get an abortion for no other reason than to avoid taking responsibility. That is such a pathetic excuse. There are families out there who are unable to have children. Adoption is still a great alternative. Life is not something you have a right to take. Unfortunately for the rest of us you idiots out there do have the ability to reproduce. Think before you act. [I AM PRO CHOICE, BUT THE CHOICE COMES BEFORE YOU CONCEIVE NOT AFTER]

 

Suicide:

Summed up in one word... Selfish.

 

It is a very selfish act. No matter what the reason is behind the act the person committing it is thinking of no one but himself or herself. That is the definition of selfish. If you want to die, for whatever reason, then by all means kill yourself. The only time I have a problem with it is when it becomes a murder suicide, or when it is done in such a way as to have an effect on others.

 

Point 1: don't kill yourself in a place where children might find your body

Point 2: don't get all bloody with it. Someone has to clean that crap up! Just pop some pills or something. Go to sleep and die.

Point 3: don't attempt it. I hate this more than anything. People that say they tried to kill themselves. Seriously if you REALLY wanted to die you would get it right the first time. Stop being so fucking dramatic! Either do it or shut the fuck up. I will not pity you.

 

-No I have never tried, nor do I think anything could ever be bad enough for me to want to- But that's me. I am not one to tell anyone how to live or die. This is just my opinion.

 

Sports:

I dislike pro sports a great deal. I think they get paid way too much to play a game. That money would be better served if it were distributed among Caregivers, Police, Firefighters, and our Men and Women in the Military. It almost makes me sick to my stomach when I think about how much they make for what they do. Is our entertainment really worth more than our security? I think not.

 

Another reason I would rather watch college sports is because they play for the love of the game (mostly) Sure they want a spot on a pro team in the future (probably because of the obscene amount of cash involved), but they put their hearts into every game. It is not just a paycheck to them. I believe it makes it more entertaining and gives it a "real" feel. Pro sports seem flakey and fake to me. [GO DAWGS!]

 

PMS:

Just one week out of the month a bitch has an excuse and a guy has something to blame when he doesn't get his way.

 

If we...

- Are short with you

- Have an opinion different from yours and express it

- Refuse your advances

- Express our disgust for your idiotic behavior

It doesn't mean we are on our rag. It means you are a complete idiot and we are sick of your bullshit and your face.

 

Rude Bastards:

What possesses you to make rude distasteful comments to women you hardly know? Do you honestly believe you are going to get a positive response from such a ridiculous comment? If you are talking to a girl with any self respect at all you will get quite the opposite I assure you. No girl is turned on by a raunchy comment coming from a total stranger on the internet (or in person for that matter).

 

In conclusion I implore you to reconsider before letting such a vulgar, tasteless spew of verbal diarrhea leave your lips/fingers. We are not impressed by it and quite frankly you make yourself look like a complete idiot.
