Salt Lake to Chicago
So yesterday, I took my first solo trip (first time without mom by my side) and I must say, it feels different. There is a degree of freedom I’ve never thought I’d feel. Continue reading “Salt Lake to Chicago”

My Happy Place
“Go to your happy place,” I hear people say that when someone’s frightened or nervous about an upcoming event. The anesthesiologist said that to me right before he put me under the gas a few years ago when I had my oral surgery. Continue reading “My Happy Place”

Disappointed…
I was so looking forward to the Super Blood Moon and the Lunar Eclipse on Sunday but I didn’t get to see it. I was so disappointed. There were too much clouds that night. I stood on my front porch, urging, “Come on, clouds, just move over one tiny inch.”
*sigh* The clouds just wouldn’t budge. The picture above was shot on Saturday night. The sky had already darken but somehow my camera kept making the pictures look so light. The ISO was automatically set to 800 and the shutter speed was exceptionally slow, 1/10 second. I even had to enter to digital zoom. That’s why everything around it is so blurry. While the clouds wouldn’t move last night, I did somehow kind of successfully captured the beginning of the eclipse. Yes, I know, I have a very sucky camera.
This is also ISO 800 but with an even slower shutter speed, 1/4 seconds. Don’t look at me, I didn’t do anything. You know the weird thing though?
About 30 miles away in Salt Lake City, people were witnessing the eclipse in perfect clarity. I watched the live footage on the news. So it looks like the clouds are just playing games with me. Ugh!
The Time of My Life
I get to plan the perfect day as a 6-year-old, huh?
Let me think… Closing my eyes… Envisioning… Continue reading “The Time of My Life”

My Adventure in Las Vegas – Day 1
Okay, so I discovered another bad time to visit Vegas. September! It was still near 100 degrees and I constantly felt as though I was being baked alive. And the traffic? What are the chances I witness an accident at almost the same spot two days in a row? Continue reading “My Adventure in Las Vegas – Day 1”

Connected to Something
I haven’t really been out lately, mostly just stuck in the basement. The weather hasn’t been cooperating. It’s either too hot or too cold or too windy or too rainy. It’s like it’s playing a big game. So no new pictures but good news, I’m heading to Las Vegas in two weeks, yay!
So plenty of opportunities there. I’m looking forward to gambling and earning 5 extra credit points for my auditing class for doing something fun (No, I’m not kidding about the 5 points). The instructor apparently thinks we’re too tight and need to loosen up.
It’s the first time I’m going to Vegas since I turned 21 three years ago.
Anyway, I know that’s not what you’re here for, so let’s get this show on the road.
I know some of you have seen this picture before. I debuted it way back in June. Like I said, no new pictures.
Stairs are connected to something, right?
