Ooh that's nice to hear! Perhaps we should get talking sometime <3
Feel free to send me a note- I'll always reply to notes, I'm going through a stressful workload atm, so comments are more likely now than ever to dissapear into the depths of my ever-full inbox. X_X
What are you up to? =]

Sorry, for a super late reply - high five on the workload *overload* also )))
Do you happen to be on facebook? I know it's a nerdy question, haha, but it serves as an excellent client communication and my friends find it easy to exchange daily projects Plus the feedback can be just the thing to get you out of bed at 5am every morning ))

If you are, find me under Pape Kay.
I'd love to get us talking sometimes ))

Oh, I'm not so keen on handing out my facebook over DA X3.. not until I feel I really know somone. Are you not on here often, then?

I've luckily gotten over an art block that i've had lately. I find it strangely less stressful when i'm getting work done, than when i'm not. (Guilt and panic I suppose!)

I'm not complaining i embrace many pagan beliefs, i'm a rationalist, i don't believe in religion, but i do believe in spirituality and rationalisation, pagan beliefs just make more sense than others

it is, and communism is a sensible course, despite the popular american concept that it is intrinsically "evil" -_-

books are awesome and they are the opinions/ideas of the individuals that wrote them, not government censors

True. But I also like them as they solve problems you don't have to. Stories in them develop without you having to make decisions and suffer the consequences. i like that for a change. Not having to make decisions, i mean

But it's such a cool pic and I always get so anxious seeing the likes of it - I soooo hope I was one of those crazy ladies from the '2o, flying planes, having their ow archeological camps, having fierce romances with mummies and the likes... They were like the coolest babes since the times of pioneers in the west. But prospectors are nowhere as cool as archeologists, although then work out is primarily the same

Yes, it was quite the adventurous life. I used to dream of having such a life when I was a teenager, but then I think I was born into the wrong decade for such adventures. They best archeological expeditions seemed to have been done between 1900 - 1940. That was a good time for archeological adventure.

Well, they didn't drown one another in righteous paperwork, for one. But there's still some cool digging going on, expecially in China and Mezoamerica, since those are very vast and undiscovered lands... Cool thing about archeology is you never know what you'e going to find. You just have to be willing to get your shoe dirty - and do the paperwork, heh

Not kind so much as curious But you're most welcomed. If nothing else, I owe you a little bit of courage. I have long given up on getting anywhere with just a passion for photography, until you came along I figured, if a creature so delicate and mild can succeed by sticking to what she believes in, who am I to doubt myself So thank you. Really.

Pride z leti Ampak stil se spreminja in zadnje čase mam ta problem, da narišem kakšno knjigo, v tem času pa se mi slog že spremeni in dobim občutek, da bi jo znala ful bolje. S tem se moram zdajle soočiti. Hm, opažam, da ti je všeč Giger. Ko sem bila toliko stara kot ti, sem bila njegova 'učenka' v Zurichu, čeprav je bil seveda takrat že star in tečen in mi niti približno ni bilo več všeč, kar je ustvarjal - imam pa vse njegove knjige še iz zgodnjih let - če boš kdaj razpoložena se dobiva na kavi in jih prelistava, v imenu nostalgije )

Naa, I understand completely the turmoil and confusion that comes with situations like these. Someone passing on and you should feel awful, but you feel at peace and grateful for having the privilege of knowing them.. I'm sure anyone with an artist's soul thinks about it all the time, living right, dying right, feeling about it right.. We read about a million thoughts on the subject, from James Dean to Zen monks,we have a million emotions about it on our own. Life is such a weird thing. So magical and so difficult. I'm sure we can easily blame creation or something, hehehe: I bet Universe created us just so that SOMEBODY would stop and stare at the stars once in a while and be impressed by all the music and sights and colors.

Ugh... Should I have had? I am usually the sort of a person who takes a biiiiig semi circle around any such thing.... In my town - where I started out, obviously and where this got deep into my psyche - photography societies are MADE of jerks.

Are the clubs here cool? How does that work, anyway? O.o (<-- newbie alert)

I'm very grateful you're kind of showing me around, hehe. Despite what my profile says, I've only been here a week
