THERE'S TOO MUCH CAFFEINE IN MY BLOODSTREAM

My science teacher gave me five rolls of expired film today. As a gift, or something. His name is Sheldon and he was born in Port Alberni. His sons are really cute. I bought a skylight filter yesterday. I'd like to use it, but the Vancouver autumn weather is so dreary!
I'm working on developing more photos soon!

Some old pics (I want to get into in-the-moment portraits again) :

    okay done. is it kind of similar to maclean's ? the articles all seem really diverse (which is good, because i'd stay informed on various subjects). you're right though, the writing is good. do you have a subscription, or do you just pick it up on newsstands every now & then ?

    :)

  4. sick: it is kind of like maclean's. but less canadian in a hokey way. this month's issue has this short essay called "a liar's life", a memoir written by a complusive liar. i laughed out loud (LOL'd, if you will) when i read it.
    but yes, i have a subscription. my dad got it for himself but never read it, so they are all mine now!

    lleander: i agree. and thank you! good news, i have a roll full of portraits to develop, so i'll be posting some soon!

  5. Caffeine  addiction

    In this  article, we are going to discuss the importance of caffeine addiction and the  most important facts ictions in the world, just like  cocaine and marihuana. Caffeine addiction sometimabout it, as caffeine addiction is something we all must  prevent in order for us to be healthy and stay that way for years. We are also  going to mention some significant facts about caffeine effects and how caffeine  effects may affect our body performance considerably.

    Caffeine  addiction is one of the most famous types of addes has been considered a lie,  but it is a really, because caffeine is a stimulant that becomes addictive  within a certain period of time. Interestingly, caffeine addiction shows up  when you are not expecting it, and it does not necessarily show up because we  want to.

    Pure caffeine is, chemically speaking, a plant-based alkaloid that stimulates the central nervous system in any living creature that intakes it. Biologically, caffeine serves as a form of pest control for certain plants like cacao trees, coffee shrubs, yuba mate and tea trees; it causes insects and other pests to fall down from the effects of over-stimulation. So, just like those pests and insects that I mentioned, caffeine also produces stimulation in our central nervous system, which usually makes us feel more energized, invigorating and active.


    There is something called caffeine withdrawal, which refers to the sudden denial of us to consume caffeine, and it happens when regular consumers of caffeinated products may experience painful headaches if the body is denied caffeine. These headaches are caused by excess blood gathering in the area around the brain and sinus cavities, so without the stimulation provided by caffeine, the blood vessels shrink, restricting the blood flow. The traditional cure for caffeine withdrawal is to ingest more caffeine, which is not a healthy solution and this is also why many headache medications contain small amounts of caffeine.You can  more information for the Caffeine addiction in: http://yourcaffeineaddiction.com/
