Day 77

I've been lazy and trying to nap all day.
I am fairly confident in my likelihood of being sick.
My coughing has become worse, and I had the beginnings of a fever a few hours ago.
Don't worry, I'm combating it with a steady wave of
sleep deprivation, malnutrition, and stress.
Hahahah!






I've been having an increasingly more difficult time updating this consistently with actual daily updates lately. I've been taking a surplus of pictures on certain days, but not for the rest of the week. I end up using these surplus pictures because I'm too lazy to take one for a day. Though there's nothing wrong with this, because technically, as long as I put a photo per day, there are no problems. But I think my Photo 365 should be documenting my life more accurately, instead of more artistically.

I think my lack of constant daily updates is due to a lack of inspiration. I'm not going to lie, it's been kinda tough maintaining this thing daily with all the stuff I have going on in my life. I've taken 77 pictures since my birthday, which was almost two months ago. It took me two years to build a repertoire of 300 pictures prior to this little experiment. I'm not used to the constantness of this type of photographing. Sooner or later, I just get tired, or run out of things to take pictures of on any certain day.


So I'm going to be trying something I was thinking about midway through these first two months. I planned on losing interest in this at one point or the next, or at least losing inspiration. So I'm going to attempt and revitalize my inspiration with a theme.


Next week, all my updates will be focused around the theme of a playlist of songs. One song per day for the entire week. My daily little blurb will be replaced with the lyrics the picture was inspired from. I think this will make things interesting for me, and produce something nice to look at too. I'll be giving the playlist when I think of a nice set of songs. =]

Good idea!
BTW, I do the same thing. Surplus photographing has become my friend. But now that my busy week is finally over, I might just finally take a photo a day again.
