Animal Friendship Collage

I thought this photo session was too precious to not appreciate through a couple minutes of Ps. My next task will be to cut and paste the faces of my true friends over these animals' faces...

Dream Journal: Poker at Sports Authority (December 16, 2008)

PART I - This dream was vivid, like the rest. But this time, I only included chunks of the detailed dream in this account. Tell me, do you prefer to have the full dream in summary or chunky details? I went in and began to browse. The first thing that caught my eye was a super discounted Speedo on the sales rack (Size M). $15.95?! That's outlandish! Then my eyes raced to some boots that looked like they were from outer space (very cool). On the other side, I was drawn to a snazzy, brown jacket (similar to the one I already have). The sales man was closing up. Asked me what I was looking at. Took my items downstairs and told me, there may be something we can do about the price on these items. Not wanting to miss a deal I followed him. Soon, all the racks were taken down by store employees and the remaining shoppers were ushered to tables situated around the room. We were being made card carrying members of Sports Authority. In order to qualify for the card we had to...

Anime Music is Epic

Here are samples from 2 of my favorite Japanese Animation movie soundtracks: *Download all six songs by clicking this Mediafire link: Anime Folder Princess Mononoke: Combined with beautiful vistas depicted in traditional Japanese style, this music transcends the movie watching experience and takes the viewer to a tranquil paradise of culture and symbolism. 1. The Tale of Ashitaka 2. Princess Mononoke 3. Departure to the West Spirited Away: This soundtrack is much more down to earth. The film comes off as a playful children's story but has serious underlying life lessons for viewers of all ages. 1. Ano hi no Kawa E 2. Abura ya 3. Samishii Samishii

My First Photoshop Personal Creations

I'm a beginner at Photoshop manipulations. When I saw this image, I had to make a demotivational poster of this classic wedding proposal: I thought this woman's face was priceless. Too many thoughts going on though; the connected thought clouds causes humor loss.

Marvelous Physical Abnormalities of the Human Body

*These photos may offend some due to their carnal nature. For me, everyone's body is sacred; a gift from God. Still, I can't help but give special attention to the unique abnormalities in society. In some cases, it is a celebration of life. In other cases, these abnormalities are just, plain funny. Bottom line, I won't feel bad if you choose to skip this post. 1. Relaxed. 2. Flexed. 3. There's got to be some motivational story behind this guy's life. But I can't see it from looking at this picture. This poor guy is just setting himself up for failure. (I think I need a video. Maybe he stands a chance.)  Regardless. I marvel at how he does he does it everyday? Some may think him foolish. But for me, this picture is truly inspirational. 4. This girl seriously has no bellybutton. Maybe it's just the lighting; I'm honestly not sure. Is this anomaly natural, cosmetic or photoshopped?

There He Goes Again, Comforting Away!

3 Nephi 13:31-34 In this scripture, the resurrected Lord is calming the anxious nerves of his newly called disciples. 31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 For your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you. 34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow, for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient is the day unto the evil thereof. The question I asked when reading this group of verses was this: "Once I decide on what I want for my life, how will I keep from chickening out or second guessing myself?" The application in this case is apparent. When the time comes to make major changes in my lifestyle, such as, getting a new job, starting a grad program at a new University, getting married, etc., it will be quite natural to freak o...
