Sidney Kalani.

Over the past week I've had a lot of time to myself.
A lot of time to remember... me. There were things I had forgotten about that I loved.
Things have been a little tough but, surprisingly very eye opening and reminding.
Its so nice to be able to get back to your own roots. Your very very own.
Not your families and yours. Not your parents' and yours.
Just You.
I've been reminded that I love:
MUSIC.
Oh my goodness! Before I moved to Boise I imagined myself getting more involved with the whole music scene [once I got there]... you might find it odd considering I don't play an instrument or sing or even write music... but there is something about it that can dig deep inside and make you feel.. alive. 
Wait, I need to clarify. Not just music- the stuff that hardly anyone knows about. The songs and bands that are not played on the radio. Those smaller guys... They're the ones with the art that really gets to me.
Anyway, recently two of my favorite bands released new albums.
The Maine's Black and White
Rookie of the Year's The Most Beautiful
I love every single song on each one. Ah! So amazing. Go buy them both and listen because it'll make your day and week and month and year! 


READING.
I didnt really forget that I like to read... but damn, I finally have a little time for it. haha
Give me a really good book and I'll finish it front to back.
Right now I'm reading Charlie St. Cloud.
I am fascinated with this story! I cannot wait for the movie to come out- especially since Zac Efron is in it... ;]


THE LITTLE THINGS IN LIFE.
The other night I went running for an hour. 
It was 8:30 in the p.m. -right as the sun was about to set.
It was the most beautiful hour in a long time.
I had it all to myself.
The way the sunlight hit the wheat fields and colored the clouds... breath taking.
Guess what I thought about?
My Nikon :]] It's been so long since I've used him and while running I saw a thousand wonderful picture opportunities. From now on I will run with my camera! :] 
I've been told I have a good eye for pictures... That I notice the little things. Personally, I think that's what creates a great artist whether it be a photographer, painter, musician or whatever you can think of. 
Truthfully, it's the little things in life that keep it going.
If you start looking at the big picture and so far into the future it can really do some damage on your mindset. 
Maybe, that's just my personal opinion and experience but I still think it can apply to everyone. 


Other things would include animals [especially mine], crafty/artsy things,  God, my family, how badly I want to travel....
Lots of things.
I'd keep listing them but I'm outside Barnes and Noble and this dude just lit up a cigg and it freaking stinks and makes my head hurt. Ugh. 


Here's a question...
