Before I was even born, photography was a part of my life. I used to use my moms old Minolta camera which was given to her by her friends mother who passed away, and I was always afraid to carry it around with me because of how important it was to her, so I eventually got my own (a Canon Digital Rebel with 10.1 mega pixels). I didn’t want a digital camera at first, but I’m very fond of the one I have now. I never have to worry that the back is going to fly open randomly and expose the film. I lost a lot of good photos because of that.

I mostly get my cats and chinchillas to model for me seeing as my friends all refuse to smile in pictures, but, as I’ve learned, that isn’t enough. I can’t take my cats to the mountains and I worry that if I take my chinchillas out of my room that they’ll run off and I won’t be able to catch them (even though they come to me when I call them). Plus, I get panic attacks when I leave my house for too long (long story).

I plan on signing up for a photography class when I (hopefully) transfer over to Insight. I also plan on going to our local community college to sign up for classes there (which my mom doesn’t really want me to do, but she’ll let me anyway).

I’m going to try and start bringing my camera with me everywhere because whenever I don’t have it, I come across something that would have been great to photograph.
