Acts of Pure Boredum
Since 2008 I have tested my ability to capture a photograph so uniquely that everyone who sets their eyes upon these masterpieces of pure genius will have a different thought. Just kidding, that is what all photography is in the first place. In my mind, Photography is an Art. It takes skill and practice, not to mention dedication. You cannot decide one day to pick up a camera, take a few photos of your pets and backyard, and call yourself a photographer. You have to feel it. Photography is expressing yourself through the eyes; it's what you see, and what you share. A photograph can transfer a thought, a mood, a feeling. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words. Now, I am not saying that I am a photographer, because I'm not. However I am an amateur. A dream of mine is to be able to shoot photos for a magazine such as National Geographic, and although it is far-fetched, if the opportunity comes along you can bet your bottom dollar that I will not pass it up. I will post some of my photos later, and they're not that spiffy, but I am trying and that's what counts at the end of the day.

Proper Introduction
My name is Natasha, and my age is nothing but a number. In this world teenagers are viewed as reckless human beings who are uncapable of making rational decisions. However, I strongly disagree. Although many of us withold to these judgements from society, the rest of us are far from any label that has been branded so deeply upon us from our elders. I don't believe that many of us are given the chance to prove ourselves. Which is pretty sad, seems how we shouldn't have to prove ourselves in the first place. But I digress. I love many things, such as music, reading, writing, volleyball, art, and most importantly the past. I love other cultures and religions, not to mention history. I am a very open minded person however I am also very stubborn and sometimes they clash, but in some strange way it works for me. I'm a dreamer; I have big ideas and an even bigger heart. I see life from an entirely different angle than most, and I enjoy it.
Alright, so I suppose since I told you what I love, I should give you some specifics. Among reading, my favorite authors are: Jodi Picoult, Pam Jenoff, and Stephen King.
I love old cars, and would sell my soul for a 3100 chevy from the 1940's.
My music is a large pot filled with everything. I can't label what I love to one genre because I listen to everything. Some things I listen too:
Simon & Garfunkel
The Troggs
Matt Costa
Bright Eyes
Creedence Clearwater Revival
The Searchers
Rod Stewart
The Monotones
Uncle Kracker
Postal Service
Maps & Atlases
Frightened Rabbit
Right on Dynamite
MewithoutYou
John Mayer
Frank Sinitra
Roy Orbison
The Mostar Diving Club
Two Door Cinema
Future of the left
Emery
The Spill Canvas
Say Anything
The Weepies
Jimi Hendrix
Kid Cudi
& many many more. I just can't think of anything else.

Awkward Adolescent
With each passing year we face challenges that are beyond the imaginations of our childlike minds. We go through puberty, the acne, the faulty relationships, the arguments between our parents, the pressures of society's expectations, not to mention our own expectations; The unexpected twists that send our innocent, untouched lives down a horrific spiral, leaving us to reach out for something more than what we could ever possibly understand. We are desperately searching for reason, for a greater purpose. We are looking for an adventure. This blog is my adventure. The everlasting memories of my day to day life for all to read and process. Maybe even learn from. So come on and hop in the roller coaster I call LIFE.
