That Woman.

Whoever she is.

I have become That Woman. I pitied her for so long, I felt so sorry for her, how helpless and mindless, and I looked at her with such disgust that I didn't realize I have become her.

I forgot to blog yesterday. Damn it. I hope I didn't break the pattern.

#74 ~ I'll Take You To The Coffee Shop

There is one reason I'm JUST NOT LOSING WEIGHT, no matter how hard and how often I work out. Well, I lie. There's more than one reason. But here's one: Best part? It's really shitty  cappuccino. Totally not even worth it. Good-bye Crusty coffee. Speaking of coffee, you know how it's nearly impossible to take pictures in public here in Jeddah? And then you know how there are these men-only cafes with nice al fresco seating?  So the other day, I was feeling ballsy so I told my brother to drive up to this one cafe near work, stop the car while I take out my camera and my zoom lens, look one of the patrons in the eye, and just shoot him. I instructed my brother to quickly QUICKLY drive away, just like in the movies, as soon as I get my shot. I'm such a daredevil, aren't I. Here's that shot. Yup. Not worth it either. The funny thing, if I had taken a good photo to show off here, was that this guy (the white blur in the middle) saw me shooting him with m...

From the show "My Boys " I was looking for an image to use as eye-candy for this entry and I came across this picture, which led to my watching an episode of the show. It was chuckle-worthy but meh. Which means I'll go and watch all 3 seasons. The show is about a girl and her circle of guy friends, which was alright, except that it was all just.. a little too clean, considering there are 5 guys there. Not that I'm saying that guys are nasty. Wait, what am I saying? THEY ARE. So yeah, I'm watching the show and I think to myself, hey, this reminds me of myself and my gazillion guy friends. (Yes, I had to make it about me.) I mean, this is EXACTLY like me and my college circle. That's EXACTLY what I looked like. And look, that guy on the far left is my friend Mike. That guy on my left is my brother Brendan. Guy on my right is my high school buddy Kenny. They're even wearing the exact same clothes. Hmm. ANYHOORS. The best thing about being the one-of-the-guys ...

A touch of drama, dahlings. Heartbreak . 1. Denial. It's not happening. 2. Anger. It's not fair. 3. Bargaining. What do you want me to do? I'll do it. 4. Depression. I give up. Nothing's working. 5. Acceptance. Some things just Are. 6. Starting over. 7. Moving On. Which one's your favorite?

Allow me a little sentimentality. I bought my Nikon d40x 2 years ago this month, June 2007. Almost a year before my purchase, I had been spending a lot of time in the company of 2 guys and 2 girls, all of whom liked to, as a pastime, drag me with them to early morning breakfasts at Casper & Gambini's in Jeddah while they spent hours boring me with endless talk of photography. They would brainstorm ideas for photoshoots, talk about photo editing and software, and discuss where they could drag me some more for some possible photography in the land of OH, HELL NO YOU'RE NOT TAKING PHOTOS HERE YOU INFIDELS. I had always felt a little bit left out, as photography was really the only thing I couldn't even stand-up-comedy about. As soon as we settled down with our cups of coffee, they would start blabbing about things I didn't know about. I kept myself entertained with thoughts of gaining back their attention when they drifted away into that elusive, exclusive, bullet-proo...
