My Firsts | Mirrorless camera

Image
One of my favorite things in the world is getting a new camera, throughout the past years I have had numerous cameras. I finally decided to invest in a mirrorless camera! My choice was the Olympus Pen e-pl7 and I couldn't be happier with it so far! I still need to learn the ins and outs of it, but so far I'm loving it. In addition to the camera kit , I also purchased the 45 mm f 1.8 lens. Here are some quick snaps from my driver seat mirror: Better pictures to come :)

My Firsts | Pair of TOMS

Image
My older sister got me a gift card to Journey's for Christmas, and so I finally got a pair of TOMS. I love their mission of one for one, helping a person in need with giving them a new pair of shoes with every pairs of TOMS purchased. They also give in many more ways, check it out here: http://www.toms.com/what-we-give. The cause is good and the style is also. I got these simple black Cordones canvas pair. They are so comfy and cute, and they match just about everything. Probably not the best for winter in Minnesota though, I'm excited to wear them more when spring and summer come along!  "Inspired by giving, designed to make a difference."

My Firsts | Dreamcatcher

Image
I believe dreams are the most wondrous things. They let you feel like you are in a different reality. My favorite dreams are the ones where the world is ending and the world is chaotic. It feels like your in a dramatic movie and really experiencing .  I've had this dreamcatcher since probably third or fourth grade, and it's still with me at college. I remember my parents buying it for me when we took a "huge" family vacation (and I say huge because we went with my dad's family and so it was 1 RV with about 20 people) to Yellowstone and we passed through Mount Rushmore where they bought it. I thought the dreamcatcher was the up most coolest thing ever; having this little Native American gadget to catch my bad dreams. Ever since, I've just loved dreamcatchers.  Here is my first dream catcher on my apartment window now.  Happy dreams welcomed. :)
