A check for the bucket list


I'm sure we all have the list, may it be written on an old restaurant napkin or in a special book, we all have a bucket list.

Life is about chances, things that scare you or push you to your limits. I think becoming older and looking back on my bucket list I've been playing things safe, I've been living life safe. A chance presented itself when Classified posted he was in need of "extras" for his new video. Here's my chance......I sent in a few photos (not including my age) and waited.   Its great that the first on my list from a young age was the first i got to check off.....Being in a music video. Now i thought this would be me as a dancer doing my thing however at 32 I was happy just to roll with the 18 year old for the day. lol

The day was filled with special moments, from personal ones to sitting back and having a front seat to others personal moments.  Can you see me???
I loved being on set and feeling the energy of the crew. They transformed a simple space into a space perfect for the vision.  Of course i took advantage of being a part of the video and had my camera beside me when ever I could. I knew I would get some shots to remember, and of course I did. Because I was able to take a chance, my bucket list is now bigger.

Please visit my website for more photos of the day

Simplicity


Found this great video today, i think its perfect for a Friday song. I also love the use of the lighting it adds to the simplicity of the song. Since i have been getting more followers and email regarding my blog, its time i show a little more personality on here! Don't you agree? So now you will find all sorts of fun stuff. Enjoy!!!

Somebody That I Used To Know lyrics

Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end
Always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

I used to know
That I used to know

Somebody...
