My Most FAV Things To Do

I don't really do much. All my days seem to meld into eachother, with a few notable moments.

One of the things I love to do by myself is watch tv. It's like my escape from the problems of the world......as long as it's not the news, they ALWAYS show bad things that happen. I like to watch my cartoons.....not the kiddy cartoons but more like "The Simpsons" "Family Guy" "South Park" cartoons.

Also I like to be with my family at the family gatherings. I have a cousin thats about a few months younger than me and we've been best chums since we were little. We always have a good time with eachother. Normally we see eachother like once a month but I haven't seen her since........I think Thanksgiving.

Another thing I like to do is take pictures. A few weeks ago I got my very own camera. It's an old one from the 80's, it use to be my grandpa's before he died. I read up about it on Wikipedia and it says it was one of the first to have autofocus. I've used it for taking pictures in tech ed, it works nice. It's hard because you have to get all the functions set and you only have one shot to get it right and you can't see how it turns out untill you get it developed. I like my digital camera better because you can see how it turns out right away, and if you don't like it you can delete it. I like photography because it's a chance for me to be creative, I love to experiment with different settings and lighting and subject matter. I try to make it look unique and not so average. I'll just say this, my biggest pet peeve about watching people take pictures is that they LOVE to use the flash. Even when they dont need it. I dont know if it's because they dont know when to use it and when not to, or what. So I'm telling you this, if the subject is well lit, like outside or in a room with the lights on, YOU DON'T NEED THE FLASH!!!!! Okay I'm moving on.

As most of my fellow classmates said, they like to do things with their friends. I agree. Doing things with friends is better than doing things alone.....for most things. Example, a project is always better when you have friends to do it with, unless your friends are slackers and you end up doing most, if not all of it. Some things however I find are best done yourself. I don't know if it's the lack of confidence I have in them doing it their way, or if it's just that feeling that if you want it done right, you have to do it yourself. But I'm hardly ever like that, I believe in sharing the workload evenly. Sometimes I like to do stuff alone, I find I kinda get in a work mood where I'm really productive at whatever I'm doing. Although if I stop whatever I'm doing, it's hard to get back in that mood right away. I'm done.
