NEW IN: Nikkor 50 mm lens

My 50mm is here
Photography is getting more serious of me.
Even though I am still learning and I am still yet to figure out which aspect of photography to specialize in.
Time will tell I guess.

Do have a wonderful week people.

Flat love

♥Lara

I love my heels

But I have turned to flats for 2 reasons.

I sprained my ankle in January and heels hurt for now

and I work in a heels unfriendly environment, before I will go and do "oge"and break leg or neck.

So for now I am rocking my flats.

It days like this that I miss living in Europe, I  actually wish I am strolling the summer streets of Europe in them.

I can't wait to go on vacation to that side of the world, even though that is no longer possible for me this year.

The shopaholic in me already reactivated, I also got this heel, which I wore to an ex-colleague turned friend's wedding,

I hope everyone had a nice holiday

Even though I had promised myself not to do any office work over the holiday, my Oga didn't let me rest.

Wishing you all a wonderful week.

Till I come your way again with a proper post.

I didn't plan it like this!!!

Dusting cobwebs
I didn't realize that I would one day have to start dusting cobwebs on this blog.
I used to "yimu" at bloggers who do this.

Years back, two friends once told me that a time will come in my life when checking out not to talk of been active on social media will be the last thing on my mind. I "yimued" when they said this.

Alas, today this is the story of my life.
No time rara.

I knew I was going to have a busy year
But I didn't expect it to eat up all of my life.

This was my life for the last 4 months
My work life is exhausting, that is particularly what it eating up all of my time.
Right now I am working.
I need to find a balance.

I don't have time even to study, I wrote my first semester examination in the last week of July and I must say I wasn't even prepared for it.

Even though I was on leave, I was practically working every day.
The crazy thing is that my exam came up the same week I was assigned to manage a project.
Yeye Unilag people too are to blame for releasing the exam date so late, that there was no way I could avoid not working while on leave.

The professional exam I wrote this year was also affected, by this lack of time to study.
I have decided no more professional exams this year till I find a balance.

I shall find a balance soon and hope to continue blogging and particularly travel as much as I want.
I am canceling the trip I had planned for the Ramadan break, friends are pulling out and I am too scattered to even draw up a proper plan.

On another note, I am taking this expensive hobby of mine seriously.
I got a new lens and I am hoping to get another one.
Friends are advising I go professional, but not sure I am ready for that.

I am not yet photography smart and to be honest, I don't think I can handle the tantrums thrown by humans. I assisted a friend at a wedding once and I gave up at some point. The couple was just on another level.

Photography, for now, will remain a hobby till further notice.
Maybe someday I will change my mind.

Wishing you all a wonderful week and I guess with this free time of mine, I shall do blog rounds.
