P.S. I Love You


If you hadn't noticed i'm too good on the whole spelling and grammar deal, but you know what fuck you, and fuck your grammar!

Watched P.s i love you , "aw that's soo old!" yeah i know ok. well anyway i thought it was the ultimate chick flick and i loved it and will probably never watch it again. But i'll admit i cried.

Awesome opportunity for some good photos today, nice overcast, but as fate would have it i forgot my camera. So i never took this photo, but wish i did. It's actually from the 1985 issue of National Geographic photographed by Steve McCurry. Her name is Sharbat Gula, nick named 'Afghan Girl', an Afghan orphan in a refugee camp. It is said to be "the most recognized photograph" in the magazines history.

It's just a beautiful image really and even better when you know the context, like anything really.
