Like moving a mountain

Anyone out there ever get the feeling like you're trying to move a mountain but you just cant?

You try to get around it but it just keeps moving in front of you.

I think I need some major dynamite to get going since I've been in this state for waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay tooooooooooooooo loooooooooooooong now.


PS. I realize that I'm still way too open here on the blog (especially since it's linked to Kickstep) but alas, I don't care. It's a freaking true blog, not some BS propaganda page to lure potential customers into a false sense of knowing who they're potentially hiring. This is me, all cards on the table.

PPS. Btw, I finally earned my PPA Masters of Photography degree this year. Yey for me, official press release sometime this year when things are cheerier.

Good times with my old Dance friends.



I found this long lost gem a little while ago on you tube. For those of you who didn't know, I was a pretty active social ballroom dancer a whiles back. My friends and I (yes, these ones on the vid) even had a little swing and salsa dance group going. So we would do shows like small county fairs, weddings, 4th of July celebrations, stuff like that.

Enjoy.

Merry Christmas

and a Happy New Year!


after 5 minutes, I thought I should have wrote something more...

Anyways, not sure how I feel about Christmas this year, it's like I know it is the season and know that it's gonna pass very fast but I just couldn't get the feel at all. I suppose it's got a lot to do on where I am right now and what I'm seeing around me. I don't know, I guess I really just miss that feel (and quite frankly growing up in the Philippines where Christmas is a 3 month long event) as a kid growing up. Well it's the 24th and I'm still not feeling it. Yes, we have a tree, lights, holiday food to get us going but still. Granted I haven't gone out a lot recently  nor have gone to any parties and get together's but still.

Hopefully, the magic eventually comes and I'm looking forward (like I looked forward to 08 back in 07 though 08 didn't really pan out to well) to 09. Hopefully, things don't get any harsher (I'm being totally optimistic at this point already) at best though there's some sharp changes coming on which I can't really write about in a public forum just yet. Those of you who know me IRL , you know what's going down and I thank you for being there.

---I'm leaving this post public till I wise up and decide that it's totally too emo for the world.


Image for the day:



We made this a couple of years ago for her senior pictures. I don't know I guess I just wanted to see the bright blue skies, it's been very very gloomy as of late. :)
