Gone Fishin'

INTO THE WILD and the beginning of Spring really got me thinking about nature and how much we take it's beauty for granted. I try to get out in it as much as I can but I still get caught up in work, homework, etc. Busy life is no excuse not to take 15 minutes to take a walk or sit outside. I think everyone could benefit from it and maybe even get some inspiration. I had to take some kind of break during this weekend. I ended up working till 11-1230am (with breaks) Saturday! I'll admit, I didn't get much homework done this weekend but that's how life is sometimes. I'm fascinated about the animals, plants... everything but who isn't? Even though I try to enjoy some fishing or a walk, i still have a running mind about all the busy life things, projects, work, laundry, etc. I wish I could just forget about it all for a few minutes but taking breaks like this does help. Breath in that fresh air. ahhh. [ps- i'm probably the only asian redneck girl you'll ever meet around here]


As i sat on the pier, I noticed little things like the surface texture on the wood planks, the ripple patterns in the water, the way the wings on the geese moved. It would all be pointless information to someone that wasn't an artist but i love to take it all in.

Random fact: Did you know that geese are monogamous for life? If their mate dies then they usually won't find another but if they do it's after several years. I always think about that when I see goose all alone.
How beautiful is this sky? I thought it was so cool to see the sky and it's reflection in the pond at the same time but i couldn't really get a good picture of it.

I love fishing, I've been wanting to go so bad recently! I always went with my dad, and I love when people think I'm really girly, and when I go with guys that refuse to bait their own hook or take the fish off it cracks me up!
