It will be alright





I feel like every day I just have more and more on my plate. I tried putting all my energy into my 4x5 class.. but am now a good 2-3 assignments behind in still life. And an assignment and a half behind in Wass' class. However it consists of a total of 15 prints. So fuck me- right?

Today was actually pretty good. I dont know what it is about wednesdays. I spend all day at school. Go home and can never go to sleep. In turn giving me 2-4 hours max of sleep and then I go to 4x5. Then Concept class. A total of 10 hours. Then I find some way to manage to still stay in school and work on some assignment. But I'm usually in a pretty good mood thursdays. I dont know how it works itself out.

Tonight I went to slideslam which was presented at our school this month. It was great seeing some of my east bay photographer friends. I met some great new people. Juan Carlos presented his work that he just finished in Haiti. He presented a lot of film which was so great. Check out his work here.

There was a huge turn out which I was super amped on. A lot of new friends. Good vibes. Met some new contacts for Dust's next issue.

Speaking of....

We're finally cracking down this next week and putting Dust together. I think a total of 20 something photographers this issue. What the crack is that? SO amazing. I'm really happy.

I got my fuji back. So amped. Just won a 4x5 jobo loader with the guide and tank. So I'll be waiting for that little sucker to appear at my door in the next few days. I found a box of old band t's from my middle school/high school days. Think glassjaw, anything drive thru records, kinda stuff. I'm totally rocking those t's this summer.

Life has made a crazy fucking turn in my life. For a long while I saw it as a huge blockage in the middle of the road and it's taking me a while to see past that and see it as something in a more positive.. it's just hard to see that. Maybe sometimes it just is what it is?

Spring break mother fucker. Spring. Effing. Break.
