Sooo, I haven't posted in a while again, but I had a terrible ear infection The pain I went through is indescribable, but I won't bother you with that stuff. Instead enjoy these wonderful photos

I want to thank the lovely people who donated points in my donation pool. So far I got 38 points. It's not much, but it's something. I guess you folks are broke like me huh

Anyways, every point you donate will be used for subscriptions which will be donated as contest prizes. Oh and the person who donates the most points and a random person who donates will both get a one month sub. So donate a point or two (or more ) if you can

On another note, my classes are over and I'm so relieved because I have more free time now, but sometimes I get really bored.. What do you guys do when you're bored? Any fun suggestions?

Anyways, enjoy these wonderful photos I picked for you guys

Here are the winners of the Winter Macro Contest. Congratulations!
