I turned 24 today. I’m almost half way to 50. Not cool. It’s funny, I get excited for my birthday, but at the same time I dread it. I really hate getting older. It’s been a fear of mine ever since I was a kid. As silly as it sounds, I used to cry myself to sleep many nights as a kid just thinking about getting older. It depresses me!

Last Thursday I started a communication group, and yesterday was my second time going. The group is to teach us how to communicate better with people, how to react to different situations, as well as build confidence and self awareness. I’m actually enjoying it, which I didn’t think was possible. And an old friend of mine is actually in the group with me, who will remain nameless since everything is confidential. I’ve only been to two sessions, and already I’m learning and feeling better. There are going to be six more, and I’m looking forward to it!

I have a few people lined up to photograph in the near future. I’m so excited for it! I hope everything goes smoothly and both the people I’m shooting and me are happy with the outcome. I will post pictures after I take them!
