It's in the Water


This isn't my favorite Kings of Leon song, but I love the feel of the camera, the land, the kids, and the water. It's visually hazy yet bright, golden and joyful. I love water.
And the chorus ...

Its in the water, Its in the story of where you came from 

Your sons and daughters in all their glory its gonna save her 

And when they crash and come together, and start rising
Just drink the water where you came from, where you came from 

Always remember your roots, and the friends, family and animals you started out with : ) The land.

Speaking of Kings of Leon (my favorite if you haven't noticed) I love these lyrics to "The Bucket":

I'll be the one to show you the way 

You'll be the one to always complain

 Cancel the thing that I said I'd do
I don't feel comfortable talkin' to you
'Less you got the zipper fixed on my shoe 

Then I'll be in the lobby drinking for two

Usually I love their lyrics because they rarely make any sense : )

Italia

This blog was inspired because (fingers crossed) I'll be leaving for ITALY in FOUR months. !!!
And because I deleted my Facebook. It was freeeeing, but at the same time I'm going through withdrawal.

I'm probably the only young adult without a digital camera. I've never really been interested - I figure everyone else will take the pictures for me. Now that I can't keep up with my friends' photographs on Facebook...and because I'll need to remember Italy... it may be time to get a camera. I'd prefer an older, more artistic model. Especially in Florence!

My dream camera: an old Polaroid. With the white borders. And the wonderful instancy. Too bad the original film is no longer made. The newest Polaroid model prints business-size photographs - not quite what I'm looking for. 

Until I leave for Florence, (once again, FINGERS EFFING CROSSED) I'll occasionally update the blog with whatever's on my mind.
