1. "Can you bring your camera to *family event*?"

Yes, because taking a few quick photos that I will definitely not edit will turn out so differently from your iPhone (spoiler alert: it won't).

2. *tries to take a photo* *lens cap is still on*

Then you quickly take it off and hope no one noticed.

3. Full memory card

And you can’t find the extra one and everyone is waiting on you and while you’re searching for it you can just feel them judging you and off in the distance you swear you hear sirens and you JUST. CAN’T. FIND. THE CARD.

4. Using your flash at a dark event and everyone turns to look at you like

It's like you're a murderer.

5. Buying new equipment

EVERYTHING IS OVER $200!

6. Editing

*stares at photo for 30 minutes* *edits it until you think it’s perfect* *stares at it longer* *starts to hate it*

7. "Your job is so easy!"

Please stop.

8. "If I had a camera like that, I could take good pictures, too!"

You know nothing. Peasant.

9. Seeing other people's work and thinking you should just give up

10. But then you take an amazing photo and you're like

11. iPhone photography makes you angry

I SPENT NEARLY $1000 ON THIS CAMERA AND ANOTHER $500 ON LENSES AND YOU SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE AMAZING PHOTOS ON A PHONE!

12. "Can you remove your watermark?"

Yes. But I won't.

13. Watching people put filters on them on Instagram

Why did I even edit them?

14. Never having any good photos of yourself, so you're just like

Self-explanatory.

15. Trying to get that perfect shot

^ Yeah, it's kinda like that.

16. Figuring out how to work with the shadows and current lighting

Dealing with shadows can be the absolute worst.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
