Been feeling quite bored and depressed the last few days. I do not know why. Tired. Jaded. I’ll be helping a friend shoot her flower arrangements for a competition tomorrow morning and my camera batteries has not been charged yet. Duh! I’ve gotta make sure I remember doing so tonight.
Here’s a photo I dug outta my HDD and gave it some post-processing work …
Received an email last night from Shutterstock, a micro-stock photo site that I used to upload some of my photos to earn some extra pocket money. Well I don’t have many photos in there, so earning a couple of hundreds every now and then is good enough to help pay some online purchases. That email I received indicated that one of my photo which was downloaded by a client was involved in some settlement between Shutterstock and the client, and thus they will be pumping in some money into my account for that. Cool! Today I noticed an extra US$28 in my Shutterstock account! Cool! You might say that’s just a small amount but it’s such little money that makes up the final payable amount in micro-stock photography sites.
I just got paid a couple of weeks ago by Shutterstock and I burned the money on some DVDs that I ordered online.
Hope I can find some time to give my film cams some workout this weekend. Two rolls of slides for a double exposure collaboration with a friend in Japan has been waiting for days for me to shoot the first exposure but I’ve been too weak to even load them into my cameras.
Not sure what I need to give me the ‘kick’ … so that I can be up and alive again. Maybe shooting some photos? Maybe some sleep? Maybe some beer? I don’t know. Thinking of bringing Fitzand to the zoo this weekend and hopefully a fun trip there might cheer me up again.
*pat pat* dun let the blues get you down. Be sure to go onto the boat ride at the zoo, it’s rather scenic. 🙂
@irorus : Thanks. 🙂 I’m trying hard to get back on track. I hope I’ll be fine when I wake up tomorrow. Boat ride? Not sure if Fitzand will enjoy that. Hahaha. He’d rather spend hours at the carousel and those kiddy ride thingie.
I think you should just do nothing and just chill…
Yay! You got the “Argue with a Tree” DVD concert! I loved it! Funny thing, I bought the Argue With a Tree CD before I bought any other Blue October CDs, not realizing when I purchased it that it was a concert CD. I usually hate concert CDs because they never sound as good as the studio versions, but this CD is a huge exception. There are songs on the concert CD that I love even more than the studio versions.
@Jer : Thanks. Well I guess I’ll be fine tomorrow. Had a couple of beers just now and I’m gonna plug into Nirvana and wake up fine … I hope. 😀
@Lo : Yeah! I can’t wait to receive the DVD. I love the live CD set and I’m sure the DVD will make the awesome experience complete.
i guess its a jaded week,,,,, here at home we got 1 jaded camel and 1 jaded shroom
@norya : Hahahaha! I’m sure camel is jaded by wordpress and oscommerce eh? 😀
