well here i am in the otis college of art library because this dumbass here forgot all her negs at home so there is nothing to do in the darkroom. errrrrr. i make myself mad. oh well i'm really tired from being out late with brandon last night to see the screening of Dark Water. i liked it though it is sad so my recommendation is to go see it when it comes out. i saw the screening of charlie and the chocolate factory too(courtesy of brandon). that movie is soooo great! GO SEE IT(when it comes out!)

but anyways this college experience has been amazing! eight hours of drwing and photography EVERYDAY!!!! omg. my faith in school has been renewed and i am realizing more and more that photojournalism or as i have come to call it in the words of famous photojournalist marry ellen mark "social documentary photography". i think my dreams are coming closer to commencement. i am antisocial like no other so i can't say anything about the social aspects but the photo part is amazing. the perspective rawing makes me want to punch myself in the face but 1 seconds in a darkroom takes all frustrations away! (i am ging to die of photo developing chemical intoxication!) haha. damn it will be worth it!

staying in santa monica is amazing too! just being away from my parents for weeks is the greatest most refreshing thing i've experienced since that long shower yesterday. um.... okay. bad joke. point being it's amazing. and going home every once and a while makes me realize how much i hate my mom and how much my dad frustrates me. but that's another story in itself. and i really don't want to go home because my sister comes home saturday. if you don't know that tragedy just know everytime i think about her i want to cry. but that is another story in itself.... the weather is great here. always foggy and overcast. it's wonderful. i hate the sun. AND I"M CLOSE TO CIVILIZATION!!!! WOOOOOOO so much better then the boon docks of santa clarita. boo santa clarita. i get to take the bus to and from school everyday and if you want some entertainment ask me about the bus rides.

my teachers are amazing!!! i can't wait to get to talk with my drawing teacher everyday cuz he is jus tthe supercoolest (well, almost) and we really connect. i've never met an adult that is an older um opposite gender character clone of myself. it's crazy. he has to be just about one of the best teachers i've ever had! it's an amazing concept to have a "REAL" teacher that i actually like and learn from. (what a concept eh?) and my phototeacher is a really cool person. i can't say much for her as a teacher but she's a realy awesome person and we both know all the crazy cal-arts photo crowd so it's fun to connect with her.

but i could go on and on about this for forever so i better end this now before i get carried away. my apologies and sympathies to chris jordan (cj) for getting the crappy teachers here at otis. but i promise the rest of you this is an amazing experience.

i am finding my place in life.

finally.

:)
