Shannon praying for a boyfriend (?) |
In the midst of all things serious, social distancing, and quarantine, allow me to share some photos me and Shannon took on our little day out from a week back. Both of us own a Kodak M35, the disposable film camera that is actually reusable. So we thought we'd bring them along to take some photos while we caught up on life.
I think a huge character development worth mentioning is that when I first met Shannon nearly a year ago in Chug, she was super camera shy. Always covering her face when there was insta-stories to be taken, and with her back facing my lens only. I've lost count the amount of times she've said that she's ugly. But having not caught up with her properly in a few months, she's grown to be so much more confident. Now she's actually smiling in all of the photos I took of her, and not avoiding the insta-story. And as a friend, I'm actually damn proud and happy of her development. (Even if 99% of y'all think it's nothing, it's honestly something)
Just a disclaimer, but we went from Telok Ayer to Orchard, then WALKED all the way to Tanglin, and then Botanical Gardens and across the entire Botanics. So while there were a lot of opportunities to take photos, it most definitely killed my legs.
All in all, I think it was really a much needed catchup. Shannon's one of the gems I found while working at Chug. Our conversation is filled with so many dirty jokes, normal people would have their jaws on the floor if they heard us. And the fact that she loves Gnash's music as much as I do sigh, it's so rare to find another fan. Even though we don't talk often now, our telepathy game still on point though, so much so we really do want it to stop sometimes. But yes, I'm really thankful for this friendship. So this post is an ode to my friendship with Shannon.
(I tried to arrange the photos in a chronological order to the best of my abilities)
But, please enjoy the cute film photos.
