So I haven't posted on here in a while... and I've been meaning to, there's some stuff I have to get out of my head. Although it may be for the best that I never post it... We'll see.
Most recently the reason for my absence is the fact that I was at a wedding Thursday and so I've been spending most of my free-time yesterday and today sorting through HUNDREDS of photos to find the best ones of each moment and posting them on Facebook. Now, normally when I say "HUNDREDS" I'm exaggerating, but THIS time it's literal. I was taking photos with Saria (my phone) because I forgot to ask for Ma's camera (and thus batteries FOR the camera) and figured Saria could do just as well if not better. But the thing is, being a ginormous phone that takes up the entire bottom half of my face, I was worried I would get a lot of blurry shots so -- seeing as how tapping a touch screen allows for MUCH faster photo-taking than a physical button, which has a lag in-between shots -- I decided on a method to increase my chances of good shots. Instead of tapping once to take the photo, I would take five-to-seven photos at a time. xP In my defense, the method totally worked. I got hardly any blurry shots and got TONS of beautiful ones...
But it also left me with OVER 343 photos to sort through...
So I may have overdone it... Maybe... Yeah.
But I'm down to the last 112 (approximately) so hopefully I can finish them up between tonight and tomorrow. She already left for her honeymoon so she won't see the entire album for another week, but at least I managed to sort through and post all the photos of the ceremony itself last night, so she got to see them before she left. :)
I'm so happy the wedding went well. I was having a lot of mixed feelings (not about her personally, about me/life-in-general), but thankfully they all went away before I woke up that morning so I was not an emotional wreck that day.
I'll post about that day and leading up to it, though... I need it out of my head.
I'm really proud of myself though. A lot of the photos are beautiful or stunning... :) I'm really proud to have been the one that took them.
Oh, another thing happened yesterday. My new bed (a futon) was delivered. :) Firm, just what I need, but comfortably so. I'm really excited about it; especially about the fact that it opens up so much room in my bedroom now. PLUS, now I have a comfortable place to sit for long sessions on Eilonwy. No more leg cramps from the tiny black chair, whoo!!
I wanted to write more but I better get back to the photos. I want to get a decent amount of the last 100+ done (if not all) before bed.
Ugh. I don't want to work tomorrow. Or rather, I don't want to see/deal with those people (supervisors). At least I've actually made some friends (I think). :) Although Stephanie still gives me way too much information... ><
S: "I'm excited!"
Me: "Why, what's going on?"
S: "I've been friends-with-benefits with this guy for a long time, and tonight we're finally going on a real date!"
Me: [What...uh... What do I say here? 'Congratulations'? I don't... I don't know what...] "Great... so finally official?"
S: "No, nothing's official yet, it's just a date."
Me: [What the hell-- What am I supposed to say here? 'Whoo, the dude you're boning is finally buying you dinner first'?]
S: "But it's about time, right?"
Me: *nervous laugh that I hoped she took as whatever she needs from me*
S: "I'm just worried about the restaurant, though. He said he was going to surprise me with a place, but I'm really picky about food."
Me: [Oh, sure, THAT you're picky about. *shakes head* Don't judge. Don't judge...] "Well, if he agrees to tell you the name before you go you can google it and take a look at their menu..."
S: "Yeah, I'll do that. Because I really don't want to ruin tonight. Finally, a date, and I can't go all 'I'll just nibble on some fries...'"
That went on for a little while longer. She's fun to fake-bicker with at the registers (whenever we're actually assigned next to each other), but that whole conversation (and a couple others) have weirded me out. But anyway, she, two other girls, and one guy are possibly my friends now so I'm happy. I've been losing faith about my friendship-making skills, lol.
Okay, now I'm REALLY going to jump back into the photo project. I'll post something soon, Xanga...
