A GIRL AND HER CAMERA

So recently I acquired a new camera. A Nikon DSLR D3400. I have no idea about cameras and taking pictures but one day I was browsing social media and I was thinking about life and my own dreams and hobbies. Most days I feel so far from having achieved my career goals despite all that schooling. It frustrates me on a daily basis which got me thinking about hobbies or what I really enjoy. I have enjoyed photos and reading blogs which actually lead me to starting this blog which I always neglect. You know that mean girl part of you that says "What you have is not good enough". Yes, those mean girl moments. I messaged my husband and said I want to buy a camera so I can just take pictures of anything and everything because I love pictures. There is something about capturing your own pictures and also looking at pictures other people have taken. It captures that exact moment that will never  be repeated again. That precious moment that you can hold on to.

Long story short, that weekend we went to get a camera (Lucky wife right here). He loves taking pictures too so it was kind of a win. Today, I enrolled myself into a short DSLR class starting next month and I am so excited. If my career goals, parenting life is on hold at the moment and not happening for me right now, I need to find a purpose in life and not just live day by day. I hope the class and this passion brings me some peace and happiness that most of us are searching for (or maybe it is just me). For now, here are some pictures I took on the day we got my camera. Enjoy!
