No late-night chat for me today

And I'm missing her like crazy

It's 2am and I'm bored

I thought picking up the DSLR was one of my best decisions ever. Then it lead to another one of those "best decision ever": going for a model photo shoot. Now I'm gonna list all the benefits I got from it.

First, the pretty models at the shoot. Yea I know I sound damn shallow and superficial and whatever, but heck, I'm a healthy growing young man, and I'm attracted to pretty girls, just like the rest of the guys are. I just choose to (shamelessly, according to some people) say it out loud, while the rest act all cool and nonchalant about it. Tch.

Second, something more serious. I got to work with professional models and photographers, and I think as an amateur photographer, I benefited a hell lot from it. Lighting, angles, composition, etc. And it doesn't stop at benefiting from the shoot itself. After posting the photos on the net and received serious critiques, I learned that I have tons of space for improvement, as well as realized a lot of flaws in my photos that I never noticed before. Lessons learned: hot models distracts inexperienced people from noticing (at times, obvious) flaws in composition.

Third, I got a new nice friend. One of the models from the shoot actually. I think I feel more comfortable shooting her because (I think) she was the only model younger than me. She was very fun also, and she insisted that we talk throughout the shoot to keep her relaxed. That actually made everyone else relaxed as well.

Ok moving on from the photo shoot, this point is related to the one above. I've realised for the n-th time that I have little resistance for girls. Ok, skipping straight to the point, I got a crush on my new friend. It sounds rather typical and (again) shallow and superficial to have a crush on models, who are obviously very physically attractive. But I honestly feel that I have feelings for her personalities rather than her looks. She's cheerful and youthful and fun, and that's so totally my type. Ok just kidding, I don't have a "my type of girl". I think it's because she's friendly and she actually listens to what I have to say (i'm sick of all the girls who seem really nice but ignore you afterwards). I've known her for, like, a week, but I think I got a crush on her only the day before yesterday, from that time we stayed up till 4 to chat. Then I've been missing her like hell yesterday and today, because she couldn't go online. Ah well, let's see how long this new crush of mine will last, because I have a feeling it'll last pretty damn long, with her being so nice to me.

Another thing I've wanted to talk to someone (irl or through chat) is how my friends view my work. Sure the models are hot, but they're talking as if I'm taking photos for perverted purposes. Like "show me the sluttiest one", that shows no fucking respect at all, and i'm just damn annoyed.

Oh hey I just finished downloading Durarara episode 22, time to watch xD
