I’ve been happier in the past few days than I have been in a long time. I’ve spent some quality time with friends. I went to Portland to hang out with my family for a couple of days. I’m taking photos of things that I enjoy shooting. And the sun is out!
Here are a few images from the past week that make me smile:
There are two events that do stand out as the most smile-worthy things for me.
1) Today is my 33rd birthday. I’ve been stuck in the office all day, but I will be heading out to have a fun and relaxing night with my friends later.
And 2) My sister got engaged last night (that’s her in the picture above)! Congrats!
Needless to say, I am happy today. :)
Maybe it was a busy night. Maybe it was because it was Friday the 13th. For the first time that I can recall, Cupcake Royale ran out of cupcakes. Luckily, I and my crew got cakes before the sign went up, and we just laughed at all the people who came expecting to get cupcakes on a Friday night. Poor, sad, cupcake-less people…
It’s been a really rough week, and I bailed on social engagements to spend a relaxing evening chilling and decompressing. However, instead of sitting at home doing nothing, I went for a nice, long walk through downtown Bellevue and down to Meydenbauer Park. It was warm. It was quiet. It was calm. And it really helped to clear my head.
I brought my D300 along with me just in case I felt like doing some picture-taking along the way, but it never left my bag. I did whip out my iPhone for a few snaps that ended up conveying everything that I would’ve wanted to show from my stroll. It actually did a stellar job. Sometimes a simple, fully-automatic camera is all you need.
