Wanted by the Paparazzi!!!


Have you ever felt like you are constantly being followed and watched? Do you feel like you need to think about every move you make before you make it? Do you fear that what you do next will be recorded permanently in history by a photograph or a short video clip? I DO! There is a person who follows me constantly and photographs me at my worst times. She wouldn't be considered a stalker necessarily because she is my friend and she has permission to be around me. As I walk down the street, go shopping, change into new clothes, do my hair, or as I am just sitting there in a normal conversation there is always a fear of the words I say or the way I look being recorded for everyone on the internet to see. I now know in a small scale what celebrities feel like on a daily basis. I know my pictures will be shown to everyone she comes in contact with. Which would be fine if all the pictures she took of me looked half way decent. They unfortunately are not. There is never more than a 5 second notice in advance that a picture will be taken, sometimes there is no notice at all and I am permanently posed in a picture with the wind blowing up a size 3XL T-shirt like a balloon so I look like a morbidly obese freak forever (see picture to to the left)!!! I do however enjoy the attention. There is a certain feeling of satisfaction that I get from having someone want to take pictures of me. Although, I am not the only victim of her paprazzi tendencies, I am one of the people who are subjected to it the most. And so I put an end to this blog by giving this advice...Beware of the words that come out of your mouth so freely, beware of your surroundings, beware of the people who surround you, for you never know who is watching and recording what you say and do. It might come back to haunt you.

Just so you all know, I rather enjoy being the person that keeps you on the edge of your seats! And yes, sometimes I even manage to condemn myself with my dang camara (See video where firework hits the American Flag).
