Things Happen For A Reason...

I read this post from somebody's blog...

Sometimes people come into your life
and you know right away
they were meant to be there;
to serve some sort of purpose,
teach you a lesson or help figure out
who you are or want to become.
You never know who these people may be but when you lock eyes with them, you know that very moment that they will affect your life in some
profound way. And sometimes things happen to you at a time that may seem horrible, painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without overcoming these obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, or will power.

Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck, illness, injury, love or lost moments of true greatness.
All occur to test the limits of your soul.

Without these small tests, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. Safe and comfortable but dull and utterly pointless.

The people you meet affect your life. The successes and downfalls that you experience can create who you are, and the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.

If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them because they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart.

If someone loves you,
love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and to open your heart, and
eyes to little things.

Make every day count, appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to
experience it again.

Let yourself fall in love, break free and set your sights high.

Hold your head up because you have every right to.

Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't, no one else will believe in you.

Create your own life and then go out and live it.

If you take your eyes off your goals,
all you see are obstacles.

Es-PRING










OH
OH OH
OH OH OH

I'm back from hibernation. LA River pictures y'all! I do want to come back there when there's more lighting. I think people take the river for granted. Thank God there's a project to revitalize the river, hopefully this occurs before Los Angeles runs out of water.

PS. CLICK PICTURES FOR BETTER QUALITY! These thumbnails doesn't do me any justice.

I might go back to flickr!

The Getty Museum

The Getty

I'm starting to realize that my pictures need to be more cohesive. It seems rather sporadic and very random. LOL! Nonetheless, these pictures were taken all in the same day during my short trip to the Getty museum. I've only been there twice and I ought to spend the whole day there because there's so much more to see. I played with the colors and contrast once again just to give a different perspective of the pictures.

First Portrait Session

So I finally updated after an eternity. I've been very busy with school and other activities. Less than 30 days left before the end of High School. The good news, I got in to my first choice University of San Francisco! Hell yes!

Anyway, here's a very old amateur portrait session I did a few months ago because I was helping my friend's sister for an audition. She got it by the way, Congrats! There are more pictures I'm just too lazy to upload them. Nonetheless, I think the pictures turned out better than what I had expected.

PS: I have few more sets of pictures coming up soon from the Getty, Sacramento and Downtown.

Reaganomics

The Reagan Museum at Simi Valley is not one of the best places to go, especially if you're a Democrat and a minority. I felt so left out and take note, the only Asian in the entire crowd. Nonetheless, the view from the hill is amazing and Reagan's affinity for Gourmet Jellybeans makes up for the Republican vibe.

Random conversation we heard while waiting for our food in the Reagan Museum's cafe
Republican Woman: Hmmm I don't know what to get Tuna Melt or Cheeseburger...
Republican Woman: I think I'll just get the Tuna Melt.... DAMN! That's the Democrat in me.

What is that supposed to mean? Democrats like Tuna Melt or what?

Enjoy the pictures, I played around with the color balance and contrast.




























FIN.
