Made it out west.

I got me an apartment and a roomy, both are great.
I haven't been doing much of anything, i've turned into a total hermit. for some reason it seems that most of my problems have come from knowing people, so if i don't know any people, i won't have many problems. I know that is stupid reasoning, but so far it works. I'll figure something else out when it stops working.

I finally got a job, hopefully a decent one. I'm a web designer at South Valley Academy - this private school on the edge of town. It sounds cool, hopefully good pay and i might even get my own office, or better yet, work at home. I start next week.

I haven't touched any art since I got here, except i silkscreened one self-designed pavement shirt. But i barely touched the camera on the way over here and i haven't dont much with it since i got here. once school starts i'll figure it out.

speaking of figuring out, I still need to figure out what's gonna happen after college. I'm not sure i'll be coming home, I think I might just move to England for a little while until i can get properly set up and go to europe for a while. If I can't afford or get disheartened by England, my second choice is california - but I know fewer people there, and its mad expensive.

Albuquerque is a mix of nice and not nice. It would be a sweet town if everyone would calm down and stop pretending they are so cool and important. seriously, we live in albuquerque - a town that wouldn't make much impact if it disappeared off the face of the planet tomorrow. so people here just need to chill out and stop pretending they are such bad ass gangstas.
Other than that, the weather is what I wanted - sunny every day, lots of blue skies. Occasionally we get rain in the afternoon, but its nice. It stays sunny even when its pouring and it cools everything off. We did have a couple mini-flash floods, they don't have great drainage here obviously they aren't used to much rain. but its kind of exciting.

So that's the story. Some of it.
