Out and About

Pretty much spent the whole weekend on my deck soaking up the sun.  Summer finally arrived for us and we were graced with 30+ degree weather all weekend.  After sipping many beverages on the deck, Mike and I went down to the ridge to take some photos.  Probably going to just relax with a movie tonight, pretty tired from doing nothing all day haha.

New Old Cameras

Been a while! Been really busy getting organized to move over to Finland for school.  Really looking forward to that.  What's more, my dad gave me his old Canon AV-1 and some lenses that look like they've never been used haha.  Then, I was telling one of my co-workers about my AV-1 and he gave me his old AE-1 because he said he'll never use it! What luck, huh!? So cool!

Tonight, I cruised around the park and took some shots with the AE-1.  I never thought I'd get into film photography, but it's really fun.  Feels weird to not be able to see your shot until you develop it, but that's also part of the fun.  Anyway, I'm going to try to get some more shots and get them developed so that you guys can see the results.  Hope everyone had a great weekend and enjoyed themselves!

Oh, almost forgot, made another super-sick purchase that should arrive, I'm hoping, tomorrow.  More on that when it comes in ;)

Ciao for now!

JOKER

Check out the new promo video for Odyn Vovk's (my favorite designer, in case you couldn't tell haha) Spring/Summer 2012 "Joker" collection.  It's kind of a cool story to the video.  I like it when designers put a bit of thought into the promotion of their collections because, most of the time, it's just a boring "sneak peak" at what is to come from the designer, which hardly channels any sense of vision.

Long Lake Road

Last night I took a cruise out to my family's old farm on Long Lake Road to take some photos.  Was nice to be out in the country again and amongst the rolling hills and peace and quiet.

I'm technologically regressing today.  I'm sick of typing out my notes and tasks on my iPhone and then forgetting about them.  So, today I picked up a couple of notebooks to carry around with me.  I feel so old school, but really, it's so much faster for me.  I need to organize myself and my things a little better to keep on track!

Was a pretty quiet weekend (with the exception of a bbq followed by drinking games last night).  Didn't get too many photos though.  However, I did make a pretty big purchase today! I'll have more news on that this week!  Hope everyone had a super fun weekend and lifted a few beverages! Cheers y'all.

A MAN ABOUT TOWN

Went out for mexican dinner and beers with Trav, Andrew and Ian tonight.  Nice to catch up with old friends and take tourist photos at the table haha.  Have an awesome week everyone!

Ian spots homeless people making out across the street.

PICKED UP SOME NEW JEANS LAST WEEK.  I'VE BEEN LOOKING ALL OVER FOR THESE: ODYN VOVK SIGNATURE 13 LOOP.  DEFINITELY A WELL DESERVED END-OF-SEMESTER REWARD FOR MYSELF.

DVD NIGHT

TONIGHT, JUST RELAXING AT HOME.  GOING TO WATCH THE KING'S SPEECH.  IT'S NICE TO BE FINISHED WITH SCHOOL/EXAMS, HOWEVER, I'M BORED OUT OF MY MIND.  I MISS MY FRIENDS WHO HAVE NOW GONE BACK HOME TO JAPAN, THAILAND, UK, UAE, AND FINLAND.  SAFE TRAVELS EVERYONE.  SEE YOU ALL AGAIN SOON.

RECENTLY BOUGHT

New Odyn Vovk hoodie arrived today!! So excited to finally pick up a piece of OV.  I've been wanting to get this one for a long time, but could never find anyone who had it in stock.  You can't really tell because of the brutal image quality of my iPhone (I promise to upgrade this soon!), but it's made from terry cloth.  So, the outside feels sort of like a towel, but the inside is really soft and comfy.  I really like how it fits quite slim and there is no stupid elastic waist, or cuffs!  Also, I love how the sleeves are extra long because I hate how long sleeve garments tend to ride up my arms when I grip the steering wheel of a car, or handlebars of a motorcycle.  The main source of  OV's designs are based off of motorcycle riders' needs, so if you ride, Odyn Vovk collections are a must see! Cheers
