Weee, so Nikon decided to “fix” my camera since it was under warranty. Which I hoped they would. Nowadays there are so many companies not honoring their product warranties or doing stupid things like tricking the user into thinking the product is under warranty when the version thats currently on the market is not (cough netgear cough). Anyway, hopefull i’ll get my gear back soon so I can start taking pictures again.

stop obsessing

Untitled 10 months ago

Obsession can be good and bad. Part of what has driven many sucessful people over the ages is an obsession to succeed, to be the best, to do more, be more. Sadly most often times obsession manifests itself in a darker form. The obsessor rarely knows that they are obsessing. The turning point for me was to realize when I was obsessing and actively curb the habit. Sometimes its as simple as just letting go. Other times it requires a great amount of determination. I still find myself obsessing over tiny details, repeating things over and over for no good reason. But like all “habits” the behavior can be unlearnt. Just takes time; patience.

About me:	“I’m a geek first and foremost. The world is my veritable oyster. Life is full of lessons to learn and grow from. I’m always up for adventure. I work hard AND play hard. Life’s too short for compromises. Love and you shall be loved. I’m only 27 but I much older some days… I almost find myself screaming “damn kids, get off my lawn”. I really wasn’t born for this era.”
