Hey Guys!
So, since this blog is kind of my safe haven, I decided to let you guys in on another hobby of mine, and recently discovered new hobby of mine, to be exact, which is PHOTOGRAPHY. I have been exposed to photography for a while, since I help my mom take pictures for her cooking blog all the time, which is...http://sleeplessinmykitchen.com/, hehehe, shameless promo right there. ANYWAYS, I've always taken pictures with my mom of her food, but I never really developed a personal interest to photography. Until 2015. It all started when one day, me, my mom and my brother decided to go to the park, and we walked around until we saw this kind of slope of pretty rocks and some grass, so we sat there and just talked peacefully. After a while, I got bored, but the rest of my family didn't want to leave yet. So I picked up the book that I had brought with me(The Young Elites by Marie Lu, GO READ IT BECAUSE IT'S SUCH A GOOD BOOK!) but then found out that rocks aren't very comfortable reading nooks, so I stole by mom's phone, and started snapping a couple of pictures of my book surrounded by nature. I liked the few pictures that I took, so I started taking some more, and more, until it became a full-out photo shoot. After that, every time we went to the park, or anywhere outside, I would bring a book with me, mostly to take pictures of, but you know, occasionally I would read too:) Anyways, I was basically obsessed with taking pictures of my books, but what got me into just general photography was going on trips with my school, We convinced our teachers to let us take cameras, so throughout all of the trips I was snapping pictures of everything around me, and now I will stop in the middle of a crowded sidewalk and take a picture of a small flower growing in between the concrete. I'M OBSESSED, but It makes me look at things with a new perspective, so its not all bad.
And I know that I'm not exactly the greatest photographer, but It's a hobby, and you don't have to be good at your hobby, you just have to like doing it.
If you want to see a small portion of my photography, check out my instagram: https://instagram.com/duaawithan_apostraphe/

I know this was a super long post, and that you all probably hate me by now, but I just wanted to say this: do whatever makes you happy, and don't care about what anyone else thinks.
