ticking time bomb.

life is a constant shift of ups and downs. for everything you feel you accomplish, there is something to knock you back down to size; and for every tragic mistake or downfall there is something to pull you out of it again.

it's a matter of the positive moments outweighing in value the breakdowns.

right now, i've hit another breakdown, and no amount of cigarettes or alcohol will make it go away.

i've found, for myself, for now, the best way to pull out of it is to keep looking forward to when things will inevitably get better. at least, i hope.

one picture at a time, one awkward attempt at an art frame for ME, not for my paper.

so yesterday, i photographed volleyball and soccer practice. nothing like dodging balls hit by awkward teenagers who are just learning how to coordinate their hands and minds.

awesome shots ariel. i especially like the first one. wish there was a little more separation between the two in the left.

and i like the last one too. do you have one like that where someone is making contact with the ball? i'd be curious to see that one too.

hooray for making pictures that you made for YOU. preach it kid
