Music Is My Savior



Every time I hear Mims' "This Is Why I'm Hot" anthem, I can't help but think about what M.I.M.S. stands for : "Music Is My Savior"... Not the most original stuff ever, but I still like it. And I really feel him on this one. People can't even begin to realize, but music is such a major part of my life... That's what keeps me going when shit happens, or give me a way out when I'm not in the mood.

Anyway, back to the picture... It all started almost a year ago when I was bored, waiting in the rain and the cold for my bus, with all my stuff that I carried all day long walking around in Paris. I shot a picture of myself that you may remember from a previous post.... I did it randomly but it turned out to be a pic I really liked, and that my friends at the Wide-Eyed Crew liked enough too, to select it for our first WEC exhibit. That was very unexpected but a pleasant surprise, and I subsequently found out that my other friends also liked it. So I showed some more, and here I am, shooting pictures of myself at home...

I know it's probably gonna look like I'm obsessed with myself, but it's just that right now, I'm in the middle of one of those phases where I'm reflecting a lot on myself and the people surrounding me, or what's happening around. As a matter of fact, these pictures are simply the best and most authentic testament I could produce to illustrate my current state of mind. Sure, I could go out and shoot buildings, concrete, walls, I'd really enjoy it and that would be ME too, but this is just closer to reality... Lately I've spent quite some time thinking to random and more important things, while listening to some music, and at the same time, wondering what it looked like as seen from the outside... So I'd just grab the camera, set up the self-timer, and shoot...

M.I.M.S.
