'Well duh Erin, soldiers are humans too.' I know, but I mean, they appreciate every word of thanks and to say "Thank you" to every one of those soldiers is the least that I (or anyone) could do. It bugged me how kids were so restless and disrespectful towards the speaker at the assembly (a gal behind was texting like every 5 minutes) and when he asked students who had relatives who are veterans a friend of mine said "What? I don't want to stand!" I mean, c'mon!! Shouldn't we be proud of our nation?
Ok, it's almost midnight, and I'm not sure where this is going, but then I don't want to erase this just in case I am proving a point that I'm unaware of. Buttt all in all, I just want to thank our soldiers who are fighting now and those who have fought because they faced struggles unimaginable by the average person. People complain about how much homework they have, about their grades that are stinking, who's going to that party, and how they need to go shopping or facebook is crashing, but actually, what really matters? I'm glad there is a day to commemorate those who were able to think so much beyond themselves and these petty things. Without them, who knows where I/we'd be.
ALRIGHT. And in celebration of this beautiful life, the weather was gorgeous a few days ago and I took some pics! :) I had a mini-photoshoot with myself. I really want to learn bokeh. I tried to achieve the "Bokeh" effect with the green/orange leaves photos. :)

Ahhh, lookit at the pretty fall colors! I love that first picture and the one with the leaf on the ground and light coming in lines across it. :D So pretty! Your dress is adorable, tooo. <3
if you want bokeh, you need shallow depth of field. i'm not really sure if your camera has a function for that, but with slrs you open the aperture really wide to get bokeh in the background. i love the first pic!
I love the dress is really beautiful
