Random thoughts [whiny rant] and my first SLR.

I haven't written much on what's been happening to me in the last couple of weeks. Long story short, I made a couple of important decisions in the last few days, and it's mainly caused by what I've been through in the last few weeks. Usually I write random rants and mediocre reviews in this blog, and I haven't really get the chance to bitch about my life. Or something. Which is what everyone else is writing about in their blogs.

 

Just yesterday I read this blog of a very social person. It goes to tell what this person was doing on the weekend.

 

Reading this sort of thing makes me nervous. I take pride in knowing that I can survive without living the life of a party, but at the same time I crave for a constant supply of social interaction. Technically, one cannot survive without social interaction with others.

 

That is true, and I do interact with other people, albeit not as much as one expect from a 19 year old. My social life sucks balls. I mean, I could go out more, but I just don't want to.

 

Lately I've been beginning to wonder about my focus in life; whether I should try to study / slack off more kind of thing. To be honest, I've lost track of what I wanted to do with my life. I've been sleeping less and less each night, I've been spending too much time writing on a-story-that-will-never-be-released and I've been doing much thinking.

 

I need to chill. I need a break. I guess it would be cool to take a week off and just .. sleep all day.

 

So my parents were here for a few days. They went back to Jkt yesterday. I appreciate their visit, but mostly it's because they brought with them the regular supplies: videogames and other stuff.

 

What other stuff? Well, I finally got an SLR, a Nikon D70. It's my dad's. But he hasn't used his camera in a while, and so he lent it to me, until I can afford to buy a better one, like the D40x or a D80. I like the SLR, and the little details used to take a good photo. It didn't take me long to realise that this is no point and shoot camera, the amount of control in an SLR is nothing short of astonishing. I haven't had the chance to go hunting with the D70. But once I take some photos, I'll write some sort of review here - if anyone wants to read it.

 

Which is pretty much no one. Nobody goes here anyway, so that means I can write about anything I want.

 

I have gigantic balls, hear me roar.
