The Other Side of Me

This being the first entry for precisepolaroids, just allow me to tell you why this random blog name (which i hope will be permanent for the years to come, unless instincts tells me to move somewhere else). (:

I’ve always wanted a blog which wouldn’t be a facade. The previous one (eyegummy-) wasn’t, but yet it wasn’t exactly the place where i could really be myself. I couldn’t post a lot of issues up, I couldn’t express fully what i wanted to say, without thinking of whether i would be hurting anyone, or whether anyone would be offended reading it. I was afraid of being judged by the world, yes, based on the few words that i string together to form the paragraphs on my blog. To me, a blog is like another world, a place where my thoughts run wild, where i can express my feelings be it happy or not, where i can really be myself. It shows the other side of me. The side which i’m afraid to show to the world.

Thus, precise polaroids. The camera snaps at moments we least expect it, and captures the most beautiful images. It shows the real side of human nature, and the polaroid camera, gives you instant prints. I cannot say that it produces the ones with the best quality, I never said it did. I’ve learnt throughout all these years, that we cannot have everything in life. For polaroids, it’s the instantness that matters. They would be the ones that show the visual side of my life. The real side that snaps when no one is watching. Precise, is not the same as perfect. At first, i wanted perfectpolaroids as the name for this blog, but look, life isn’t perfect, nothing is. Precisely, precise is the word that gives the details, the exact things that happens, not missing a single thing out.

PrecisePolaroids: the exact details of the other side of my life.

And I do hope, that you’d enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy painting out my life. (: Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. – Helen Keller. HAHA but but but however, sensitivity comes in, and some posts afterall, are just meant for my eyes only. (: and if you are the trusted few that i share the password to some of my posts with, please do not misplace the trust that i have in you. I trust that you won’t share the password with some tom, dick and harry. it is for your eyes only too. (:

This new journey, starts right here, right now.

p.s i’m really irritated with the way wordpress is, because i cannot seem to change the theme properly, but other than that, kudos to my new love (:
