worst part about getting angry is how much it makes you want to be mean

[pocketkris]

sorry i said something dickish. a few mildly frustrating things happened to me in succession and it turned me evil

[yellow-cat]

actually hate that the bodys response to anything is nausea. ate too much? nauseous. ate too little? nauseous. an imaginary threat got you scared? be nauseous. on your period? you guessed it. sawed into your hand and need to go to the emergency room? perhaps throwing up into your open wound will be of help

the part of this Hunger Games resurgence that amuses me the most is people who only absorbed the series through pop culture finally reading the books and going “Peeta Mellark supremacy???” “Everlark rights???” and I’m like GIRL YES we’ve been saying this for over a decade

do not go gentle into that good night

[orcposts]

adult life is crazy because you can be going through the most devastating and heartbreaking things while still having to go to work and do the laundry and grocery shopping

This is genuinely my favorite tweet ever btw

“Oh boo hoo you shouldn’t ask your friends for favors we’re all adults”

I just spent three hours pulling up carpet and staples for a friend’s home renovation and we all did nothing but chat and joke and have wonderful conversation the whole time.

Helping somebody move or renovate or giving them a ride to the airport is functionally the same as going mini-golfing or playing a board game: it’s an activity that you do that is made more fun by having good company, and which provides something to talk about when the conversation lulls.

yoooo guys these wings my dad made look INSANE i can’t wait to try them tomorrow

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i don’t think you understand i totally thought we were gonna die locked up in this castle but this fucking genius was like “im going to invent a way for humans to fly”. shout out to my dad he’s a real one fr

[miseria-fortes-viros]

LMAOOO this dude told me to be careful as he affixed the wings to my back…..dad no offense but you just invented flying and we have to go high enough to avoid the king’s archers. soo

[miseria-fortes-viros]

HOOOOLY SHIT YOU GUYS I AM SO AFRAID. THE GROUND IS SO FAR. HOW DO BIRDS DO THIS. OH MY GODS OH MY GODS OH MY GODS

[miseria-fortes-viros]

it’s so beautiful up here

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i don’t like seeing the ground. i’m going higher

[miseria-fortes-viros]

it’s cold and i can’t see anything. not sure if that’s better or worse

[miseria-fortes-viros]

by zeus….what is that thing…….it’s as bright as the sun and twice as warm

[miseria-fortes-viros]

the gods look truly down on me this day…apollo calls to me from his chariot of fire. a mere mortal. he must think my flight such a wondrous feat

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i don’t understand why but he’s coming closer. he is not supposed to stray from his path, lest the sun fall from the sky. why does he look so anguished to see me?

[miseria-fortes-viros]

oh. i am in his path

[miseria-fortes-viros]

it’s so hot…was it this hard to fly before? maybe i’m tired

[miseria-fortes-viros]

the wax

[miseria-fortes-viros]

he really does look like the sun…the light emanates from his fingers, his hair, his skin. he means to catch me. i reach for him

[miseria-fortes-viros]

his skin burns. i cannot hold on

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i slip through his fingers.

[miseria-fortes-viros]

it takes a really long time to fall from the sky. longer than i thought

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i wonder if he cried for me

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i pray to him just in case. i am grateful he tried. my palms are red and cracked from where they touched divinity. the ground does not look any closer than it was

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i have not seen my father since we took flight…i hope he escaped. i hope he will not witness this. i wish i could tell him how joyful these wings made me before the wax melted

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i do not regret it. i have seen with my own eyes what others will only dream of

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i am not afraid

[miseria-fortes-viros]

i am not afraid i am not afraid i am not afraid i am not afraid i am afraid i am afraid i am afraid

[miseria-fortes-viros]

please please please please please pleaseplease

[miseria-fortes-viros]

the gods will not save me. i suppose this is a lesson in hubris. i am forever a flightless thing

[miseria-fortes-viros]

please please please i have no coin for the ferryman if i am to die now i will never reach the realm of hades please turn me into a bird any bird or a bug or something anything please please pleasepleaseplease

North Cascades National Park

Another item scratched off the bucket list! Went hiking out in the Pacific Northwest. I flew in to Vancouver and arrived at noon. Picked up my rental car; was pleasantly surprised due to the free upgrade to a Dodge Charger. (Yay to responsible spirited driving on mountain roads!) Drove right back across the border to the USA, made a quick stop to buy snacks and essentials before heading out on the hike. The drive was great! 

The hike on the first day was beautiful despite the pouring rain. Didn’t quite get satisfied with how much shooting time I got as everything was getting soaked within a matter of seconds, so I slept in the car in a gas station in the tiny town. 

I set off hiking again at around 5am of the next day as I wanted to be there before the sunrise at 7:30am. The second day was absolutely perfect. Hiked the Chain Lakes trail and I’ll let the photos speak for themselves; basically it was absolutely breathtaking, surreal, and the scenes were otherworldly. I was hiking / shooting all the way to around 11am and then I had to turn around and head back to the start of the trail where my car was as I had to drive back to Vancouver to meet up with my mom who was flying in. 

It was an experience to remember and cherish and I look forward to heading back up there. More photos to come as I process them! (That includes the scenes from Vancouver!)
