Trackspin: OneRepublic - Prodigal.
Went to Mike's place to learn more about Lightroom and Photoshop today, for doing edits. Was pretty impressed by the ease with which he edited the images. Interesting. Guess here's where I start editing some images here and there too. Went out to some print and frame place. Really nice people in the industry and all. Also had a pretty good talk with him on the way back. Guess I'm really lucky to have a boss I can talk to so easily and without many barriers.
Somehow, I feel like some friends I have aren't really friends at all? They can stick close and whatnot at times but at the end of the day, maybe it's just not worth it being their friend, or vice versa? It seems like such an act at times, to me. And honestly, I hate how we aren't as close as we were back in school. Somehow, something's changed. Maybe the whole fiasco from our final year changed the friendship we had. But I never regretted it, saying what I did because at the end of the day, we all know the truth. One of clique didn't do jackshit, relied on the rest of us for a good grade, and yet dared to say that we wrongfully accused the said person. And I thought despite one of us being a neutral party, I thought the other had my back, which was the case at first. But things have changed so much and it doesn't exactly feel like we're friends anymore. I guess at the end of the day, girls are more important. I don't know if our friendship ever meant anything to you, if it was just a phase where you started hanging out with them again after all that happened after we left school. Maybe it was just the lack of catching up and all, but honestly, it feels like we dropped all pretences at being friends and went back to being acquaintances. It's just weird. And I'm just the excluded party now, not that I honestly mind. I suppose I'm just being a little nostalgic about older days. But I won't keep harping on the past, nor live in it. I hope the future holds better things for us all.
A lot of people are getting into photography nowadays. I guess it's due to a large number of factors. I honestly want to improve on my shots and get into the habit of composing better. Wonder if using a manual prime will somewhat "force" me to work on the little things like that. I sure hope so, in view of the things to come. And I'm still wondering if I should take up the 2nd photographer job for wedding after Christmas. Don't know if I'm ready to handle that burden yet, but I guess it'll be good exposure and also it'll teach me more? Anybody with any opinions? Okay, I don't even know who reads this anymore.
Short to say, I'm enjoying my life for now, planning ahead and hoping and praying about the future. Only two paths I foresee myself walking down from here on. I really hope to stay on with the people I'm working for now though. Guess I just enjoy my job a whole lot and I find the company of my bosses an interesting twist, similar to some of my close friends too. Hard to explain it I guess.
Alright, I'm off to read my book again and maybe doze off in bed once more.
And you know, with regards to your email, even if I didn't want to think about you, I had to change buses at your place, coming home from my boss's house. HAHA. (:
