How to Take Better (or Thinner) Pictures of Yourself
This a funny and informative video that just about covers it all: The video just about tackles it all but I would like to add bits on how to look slim for the camera, which I’m good at. Take a look at this picture of me. I look so slim, no? Everyone says so. But […]

Book Review: The Last Song and All of Nick’s Books
