Return of investment

If we sum up all our expenses for our photography hobby, I think it’s big enough to start a business. I never thought to be earning from this hobby but if given the chance, why not? For now I am contented that people are happy with my photos, that Ace is also learning and is getting better in this field, and the appreciation that we receive from taking beautiful images is enough to be considered our return of investment. Now if we will consider going into photography business, we need to invest on better gears and accessories but that is not our priority this time. Saving for that would take us long then that would give me and Ace more time to practice. Wish us luck then!

Working from the bedroom

I think I am reading too much about bedroom feng shui that I was convinced it is not good to have a work area inside the bedroom as bedrooms should be a place for relaxation. Hence, I pulled out the desktop that was inside our bedroom when we moved here in the apartment. But with my schedule – that I need to be working until the wee hours in the morning, I can’t stand the fact that I am alone in the living room alone while everybody are already in deep sleep.I don’t mind about it before because Ace leaves the bedroom door open so I don’t feel really alone though he’s already sleeping. But since we installed an airconditioner in our bedroom, and the door must be kept close, it’s a different thing for me because my thoughts would start to wander and imagine things that I am most afraid of…ghosts! Thus, since hubby got me a lappy, I would bring the laptop inside our room when Ace goes to sleep so I can still work while he is in dreamland. So forget about feng shui and work at the comfort of our bedroom! Now I can continue with what I am reading about Asbestos legislation before Ace went to bed and I was forced to transfer from the living room to the bedroom so I won’t be feeling creepy when my weird thoughts would start to wander.
