Through my Samsung's eyes

Blog everyday in May - Day 28: Only pictures

I decided to feature some photos on my cellphone. It is so handy having a phone that can take photos - remember the days when we didn't have that?

Planning my frames for my wall

My grandfather's old camera - now mine

Cookie Concrete - Saw this sign at Dubai airport

Japan - You need a manual to operate the toilets

Went to a Korean restaurant in Japan. Delicious meat

Blog everyday in May - Day 27: A letter to your readers

To my lovely readers

I hope that you enjoy the silly ramblings of my mind.

I hope that while giggling to yourself about how crazy I am, you still enjoy what you are reading.

I hope that I can make you smile even for a few moments out of you day.

I hope that you know how much I love hearing from you.

Shit My Dad Says

Blog everyday in May - Day 26: Something you read online. Leave a link and discuss, if you’d like.

I don't spend a lot of time researching the internet and reading articles online. But this is a good story:

I follow this guy on Twitter: @ShitmyDadsays but he hasn't posted in months.

His dad has some funny ways of looking at life:

"I like babies, just saying they live inside a host body and feed off it. That's a parasite...Yes, I could raise a tape worm and love it."

"We ain't a sharp species. We kill each other over arguments about what happens when you die, then fail to see the fucking irony in that."

"Bullshit. War ain't over till people stop shooting. You can't say you're done taking a crap if shit's still coming out of your ass."

Anyway, while looking to see when he last posted, I came across this article in GQ Magazine - worth a read because he makes an extremely valid point:

Blog everyday in May - Day 25: Something someone told you about yourself that you’ll never forget (good or bad)

I had a story lined up linked to the beginning of this challenge when I spoke about my weight. But my boss said something to me on Friday that I know I will remember forever, so this is it:

He was telling me how difficult his 13 year old daughter is being and how much she fights with them and he says he is feeling very stressed about it.

I told him how much I fought with my mom... every single day and told her how much I hated her. It was only within the last 2 years of school that her and I connected.

I told him that even though I knew I was being difficult and mean, I just couldn't change it, the hormone levels were just too unpredictable making me a crazy.

He looks at me and says to me: That makes me feel a bit bit better. If my daughter turns out to be anything like you I will be very pleased.
