Today I ran out half an hour before the shops were to close and went…. ALBUM SHOPPING!! Wahey, such fun. Very quickly checked out the selection in the local shopping centre. Typical Winnie the Pooh and Recycled Paper and a couple of really nasty ones.. all satisfactory candidates. But not for me. Then I found a really basic green one, nice and big, with that sticky stuff inside so that you can put in photos of any size?! I love it. So very much. So I bought it, happily it was also the cheapest and I’ve opened it up and checked it out and it seems just perfect. Any size photo, indeed any size anything. Finally all those metro tickets and concert stubs I’ve held onto come into their own. And sketches and notes passed in school and any flat thing that I possess. I am beyond excitement. I have passed over into ecstasy. Next week I’m gonna leggit down there after work and pick up a few more albums and some supplementary sticky sheets, before the stock is gone. That shop is temperamental like that. I must act fast, now that I’ve found something so perfect. If you had one shot? One opportunity? To seize everything you ever wanted… Would you capture it? Or just let it slip…?
Eminem was definitely talking about photo albums.

Holy moley. Gotta do this pronto. I’ve organised the photos into primitive piles. I think I’ll put all these photos that I have printed into one pile and make an album out of that. In the first years of my life [basically before I got a digital camera] I didn’t take a million photos, like I do now. So, I can put all the pictures, of years 13-18 in one teenage album. Then I’ll get more albums for all the photos [see other goal] that I have to take off my computer and print. I don’t think I want to put my photos in a boring old album though, cus I can never find one I like, with the right shape and way of sticking them in, and space to write. I think I’ll make my own, so I can have a million different page styles, depending on the style of photo, and necessary space for notes… now there’s an idea…

16 days left? I have let this goal fester at the top of my list, my eye darting past the yellow box intented to seize my attention, for as long as possible. I’m going, right now, to make some primitive piles of photos for later, more extensive sorting. Tomorrow I window shop for the perfect albums after work [boo work].
