Photography






So this semester I enrolled in a photography class to help slim out my general ed. load, and to hopefully take some awesome pictures and learn how to develop them. We have had a few assignments since school started, and so far I love it. Our first assignment was called "Scavenger Hunt", and my film ended up being blank. Since it was blank, my teacher told me that I could just go around and take pictures on my camera of anything I wanted just so I could get a feel for the camera and learn kind of how to use the different things on it. My camera is a 35mm camera, and I can only use film that I can develop on my own. For this assignment though we got to take it to a Walgreen's and have them develop it for us. I just finally got this assignment back today and figured I'd share a few of the pictures that I took while I was experimenting with the camera. I took a variety of pictures and enjoyed playing around with the camera. I only hope that my next assignments will be better.

Here we go again...

WELP, its been quite a long time since I have updated this thing. A lot has happend in the past
few months.


I moved into a new apartment with a girl named Amelia Paccamonti on June 30th. So far things are going great!! Our apartment is a little ghetto, and we get nervous sometimes, but all in all its been amazing. I couldn't ask for a better roommate!!



I went on an awesome vacation with the Meiner family (aka, my boyfriends fam) and it was a blast!! I'm not even joking when I say that it was probably the best vacation I've ever been on. We went to Lake Sylvan, Minnesota for a week and a half and spent all that time on the lake. I learned how to ski, although I was not good at it at all, and got to jet ski & tube a lot. Jealous yet??




Two weeks after we got back from vacation, I started back at school.....here's where it gets boring. I'm going full time again this semester. I am taking Math 96, Biology, a Religions course, and Photography (my fave :]) So far it isn't going to bad. My classes aren't TOO terribly hard, but who likes school?........no one.

I am still working at the El Paso Golf Club as a waitress/bartender. As the summer went on I started to bartend almost full time, and so far I love it!! I like learning how to make new drinks, and feeling more responsible :).
