While browsing through a few of my favorite blogs on my subscribed feed, I came upon Jenny Sun’s latest entry (She is my local female photographer idol. As much as I love Mona T. Brooks!) answering to a tag she recieved. Since it was really that interesting to read, I decided to take up her invitation & answer to the same tag in this entry.
