the new era
Seems like the times are changing. New year, new president, new semester. All of this adds to the wild ride of life.
Up to this point this year has had its moments. I have shared some good and some bad. Things haven’t gone comepletely the way I had hoped but there is a redeeming chance down the line. Starting this last Monday some big changes have been made and even more are ahead.
School is back and I find myself waking up early again (not that I like to). English 2 is being retaken so I can fix that ugly D on my transcript. This new guy seems ok. I just need to read the stupid book now. A bit long for my tastes but I should be able to stay awake. Another “retry” this semester is web design which I somehow managed to fuck myself over. Again, the new teacher seems cooler and it is a nice change from the old guy who I have already had twice. The actual two new classes seem interesting although I see myself shelling out money like mad and the time sink is going to be big but I look forward to the challenge. Art of photography seems like it will be fun. I get to use my Nikon D60 and learn how to use it better while learning about famous photos and styles and such. Introduction to photography is film based so I will be using my dad’s Nikon F2. I have no clue how to use it so I am glad that the next class is learning how to. So far that class is the most expensive with $88 going towards a kit which doesn’t seem to have everything he showed us. Looks like I am going to have to check with the store tomorrow and see what the fuck is up.
Tomorrow will be a personal change for me. I am going with two of my coworkers to Sacramento where I will be getting a tattoo. Nothing big and fancy (mainly because I am poor and I don’t need anything too obvious). I will be getting the Brotherhood of NOD logo on my right wrist (underside). Not sure how I am going to expain it to the parents but whatever. For the Brotherhood!
Finally, I am planning a huge overhaul for the site. Aside from my constant delay at actually making the home page look decent (not happening for a while) I am going to be working on getting an even better representation of my photos set up. I may move the current site to a different URL (it will still be on this site, just diffrent location is all) or remove it in favor of the new portfolio I am building. In either case my photos will look snazzy. Expect to see it (hopefully) in the next week or two.
Oh yeah, I should be actually getting back to posting here more since I’ll be bored as hell at school during breaks or home since my days are long so expect something at least.
