Photography Around The World To Remember February 2018

"A year ago today..."

Pictures truly are worth more than a thousand words. They fill us with memories and emotions that let us relive the past. Every picture is very special, each telling a unique story. Pictures allow time to pause just for a second, and then give us a lifetime of memories. Live in the moment, don't live through your phone. But sometimes, we need to capture the moment.

And these "1 year ago today" memories are making me nostalgic.

Last February, I started to become more interested in photography, which lead me to taking more and more pictures. It was a prime opportunity to photograph the world. I was seeing art and history every day. I took advantage of my interests and my locations to start photographing more of the places I traveled to. I started watching the sun set and the architecture around cities. Not owning a professional camera limited me to using my iPhone camera, which can still take high-ish quality photos. Here are some of my favorite pictures of places I've been and the beauty of the world I captured (on my phone) from February 2018, some things that are very special to me.

I started February 2018 off in Paris, France. This photo is from inside the Louvre Museum. Free admission for students on Friday nights! The Louvre was where I started to appreciate and become interested in art.

Paris, France. The famous and breathtaking Eiffel Tower. At night, it is lit up and sparkles at the top of the hour for 5 minutes. It was magical.

The Catacombs.

Paris, France. The Catacombs...the largest underground cemetery that holds the remains of more than 6 million people. You are not supposed to take pictures, but I did.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
