Life on the farm.

I wish I could work, physically. Really, I feel like I am sitting on my butt way too much. There is a side of myself I neglected for, like, the last decade. Not good. Working at a desk, writing and thinking all the time just seems to be a bit against nature. Guess that was not the idea in the beginning. So lame.
I'm waiting for my pictures to be developed. Yep, I still take my pictures on film. It feels better. I love taking them to the lab and waiting. It's like unwrapping a present, you just can't be sure of what exactly you get. I don't want to give that up, even though it is getting more and more complicated (and expensive!) to do it the old fashioned way. They don't sell rolls of film everywhere anymore. They aren't as cheap, especially if you go black and white. And there are less and less places that will develop them. It sucks. I don't really want to set up my own lab. Or use my dad's for that matter but I guess I'll have to consider that. Sometimes I take pictures with my phone. They are alright I guess, if you're going for a nice little snapshot. But it is depressing that more and more people are contet with what they get from their mobilephone cams. Nobody ever uses a view-finder anymore! There are digital cameras that do not even HAVE one. That's ridiculous. Everybody is always shoting, nobody's ever printing their pictures. They are just data, no physical entity emerges. It's sad. Quantity will never beat quality. People don't care about their motives, they take pictures basically because they can. The picture ends up on somebodies computer never to be looked at. It is just the same as with music. I'm sorry if I sound opinionated and like an old "it used to be so much better back when"-crybaby. BUT buying (I'm not even talking about theft, which probably happens twice as often as legal downloads), well buying mp3s via the inernet is just not the same and not as good as going to the store and getting your hands at the actual thing.
I'm annoying myself here, but I really believe that. Even though it sounds awfully bitter I just can't be cool about this.
