Life just got thiiiiis much better!





Say hello to my new baby! A name is still to be decided (it's a stretch between Baby Benedict and Little Edgar...Yes I name my cameras)...but for $100 more than it would have cost me to lease a 4x5 camera out for the semester I now have one allll to myself. Unfortunately I had to buy a 210 lens (ebay you are my savior) and should be getting my fuji polaroid back in the mail soon!

This week went by long... but I enjoyed every minute of it.

My Mondays will be amazing. I start with the darkroom opening at 8:30 AM. Then get as much as I can do before I have Art History through the 20th c. which is basically just focusing on Modern art. Which I'm so amped about. My instructor has an odd sense of humor in that hes the only one who laughs at his jokes... but it's fine.

Then I have to haul ass to SOMA to go to my instructors studio for my still life class. This guy is amazing. He has such a great outlook on life in general and I love the way he approaches the concept of still life. He does a lot of food photography, but wants us to take photos of what we do normally, but to make it work for the assignments. I was worried I'd be stuck in a studio taking photos of fucking fruit this whole semester.


Things have been falling into place well.

I have sooo much to update on. But this can wait until Tuesday. Or 3 am if I dont fall asleep tonight.
