Thursday.

I'm not sure if anyone will ever see this considering we are all basically out of high school but it's here for you.

Today is my last day of high school. Ever. 

I'm kind of scared. Not going to lie.

It has been a fantastic year and each and every one of you who reads this contributed to that. 

I sincerely hope we all stay in touch.

Congratulations everyone. We did it. 

Well. Bye.

Thursday.

I'm so bored.

We are STILL watching TED talks which is pretty cool because this augmented reality one is dope. But, at the same time I'm so bored. I don't know how to write an entire page about augmented reality. All I can think is Inception. Honestly I just keep thinking about things changing. Someone says augmented reality and I just want to enter someones dream and freak them out. This guy's accent is super weird. Magician, he just said magician it makes me think of Harry Potter which I'm re-reading right now. Super fantastic. I can't think of what else to write. Maybe augmented reality can become real life with the whole hologram thing. I'm a little afraid of what is to come in the future. If it is that easy to put something in a life production then how easy would it be to completely change everything. How easy would it be for the human race to lose touch with reality. To not know the difference between what's real and what has been manufactured? It's honestly a frightening thought. Technology keeps moving so fast it's difficult to keep up. This man had obviously rehearsed this so many times. He knew exactly what was coming exactly what was going to come on the screen. It is a well rehearsed skit but it would be nothing without the help of that projector. Nothing without the extra effects. Strange. 

Next boring video.
This one was about copyright. Brown, this is the worst assignment ever. I'm freaking BORED. That guy doesn't even make sense. If I can buy a song on itunes or wherever for .99 then why if I pirate it does it cost billions of dollars. Yep. DOESN"T MAKE SENSE. This whole thing doesn't make sense. Copyright is the biggest joke. If it's that big a deal that you don't want people sharing it then google should be shut down, as well as youtube, facebook, twitter, instagram and just about everything else. That just doesn't make sense now does it? I don't understand how someone can say nope, you listened to that song, you owe me money. It's like what everything is a remix says: if we create something, we don't want anyone else to have it but if someone else creates something, it should be ours no questions asked.

People don't make sense.

Robots. REALLY? I really dislike robots. Especially trying to learn about which way rotors go, and how things move. It moves. That is all I need to know. I'm a little creeped out by the robots actually.. It's like I am robot just ruined all robots for me for always. Though I really do like Transformers. Imagine that? Yeah I don't know what to write about that. Great, the robots are flying. Wow they can turn around and flip upside down. Let's replace all policemen, construction workers, drivers, and search and rescue people. Great. Let's just hand over our world on a silver platters. I feel like I can't trust robots. I know this is a fallacy but I still can't get over it. Mrs. Weasley (Harry Potter) says not to trust anything that thinks for itself, if you can't see it's brain. And yeah, I guess robots are just programmed to do what we tell them but sometimes computers malfunction you know? Sometimes computers don't do what you tell them to do. What would happen if a search and rescue robot somehow shorted out and turned into a search and destroy robot? What if a robot as a first responder misjudged the situation and fired on innocents? YOU NEVER KNOW! This robot knows how to combine bits and pieces of trajectories. What if it could change something and malfunction? I really don't like robots.

Sidenote: I have like five people left to film and realized that today and Monday and Wednesday are my last days to finish filming because I leave for New York on Thursday. AHHHHH 156 hours

Tuesday.

Hello.

I suppose we are supposed to be writing an entire page about the ted talks we just watched. Sad to say I missed the instructions in both periods somehow. Anyway. 

The first video is about the teenage boy who is a genius?

I guess some kids are just really driven to do well. You know. Like multimedia two. We are all just as driven as him... Okay maybe a little more. He seemed like a bit of a slacker.. Does blogger detect sarcasm?

Why yes, yes it does. The boy is a genius and no doubt we can all achieve greatness just as he did. I just wonder if he has a social life. I wonder how many dances he has been to in his high school career. How many times did he just go out and "hang out". High school though it is the time for self discovery and to be passionate about something, it is also the only time in your life that you get to just chill. That guy will be doing that job for the rest of his life. Which, I mean more power to him he seems to really like it, but what happens ten years down the road, twenty years down the road when he realizes he has no childhood friends, he never had that great high school love. He never got to enjoy his youth.

It seems like a tough price to pay to achieve greatness.

The second video I don't really understand how we are to write a paper on it... I mean it's super great. He used the mac error and loading symbols to make a presentation. Wooo. He even looks surprised. Blake asked if he knew that was going to happen. Oh man. I think we all know that he made that. So I don't really understand why he was on Ted Talks. I wish he would've talked more about how the idea came to him and how he created it. 

People only reveal their true self when coerced, or far to comfortable.

I realize that was random but I feel it needed to be stated. People suck, as Emma Stone states in Easy A. 

Sidenote: I'm going to be on the other side of the country in approximately: 212.84 hours. 

Wednesday.

Bonjour Multimedia Deux! 

For those of you who don't know what that means, it's french for Hello Multimedia Two! Inspired by our prom theme a night in Paris I decided to bring a little culture into my blog. 

What's culture? You may be asking yourself. 

Google defines it as:

The arts and other manifestations of human intellectual achievement regarded collectively.

Huh. I don't know about you but it was pretty confusing to me. 

Here's how I look at it:

The arts and other manifestations of human intellectual achievement: Humans/art/media/etc.

Regarded collectively: Looked at as a whole. 

So. Everything we (as humans) have made (produced..etc..) in a 'collage' like setting.

Good to know right?

Right.

I don't know what that tangent was about other then to distract me from this looming due date of my video. Which is soon by the way. I hope to have everything filmed, refilmed, and dubbed by the time I leave for New York. Which by the way is in like two weeks. Nerve wracking. I'm well aware. 

Not only is that soon. The soon ness of that means that graduation is in six weeks. HOLY CRAP.

PEOPLE SHOULD BE PANICKING.

It's crunch time now. Our high school careers are basically over. I forget that other people have things like finals and exams to mark the coming disaster (graduation). I only have the one thought of finishing this video. It is the only thing that keeps me having a grasp on this crazy little date. 

Wow. WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW. 

Sidenote(and conclusion for the whole culture thing(sorry about all the parenthesis(I was in a mood))): Prom is in three days. It will be a grand night. Hope to see you all there. 

Monday.

HIIIII MULTIMEDIA TWO.

It's been awhile. I've missed all of you soo so so so much.

Can you believe we are about to graduate? 

It's pretty much super crazy.

Anyway. Last time 'we' chatted (when I rambled to myself and pretended you were all talking back), I mentioned that I was going to the Young the Giant concert. It was FANTASTIC. Group Love opened for them and they did super great. We ended up shmooving our way into the middle and had a super great vantage point. It was lovely.

I can't think of what I've been doing since then so obviously that means it's been eventful. 

I'm pretty sure I didn't watch much TV during the break. 

Though, I did start a new job at none other then Forever 21. It was fantastic.

Pretty sure the whole thing is one blur and moved so fast that I can't remember most of it but it was great!

People shop like demons.

I went and saw the Lorax last night. Huh. After getting a bit teary eyed at the Bully trailer the movie commenced. Wow. Are all children's movies so political? Seriously. The only thing I could think the whole time is how we are the citizens of Thneedville and are ruining the world and so gullible and just not very good people. I hate when childrens movies have alterior motives. It's so sneaky! 

My movie is coming along. 

I'm getting pretty stoked for it. It's going to be super fantastic. If I can get the whole thing finished in time. That is my number one worry. But I think if I can do that I can do anything. 

Sidenote: I leave for New York in 22 days. And we Graduate in 44. 

Tuesday.

So. 

It's been quite the exciting time since I last wrote.

Loghan and I went to SkillsUSA and KILLED it. It went very well as we got third place.

We also went on quite the adventure that I'm not allowed to talk about. It was fun though.

THEN. I went to Moab on Saturday. It was pretty great except the GoPRO ran out of memory real quick so I missed all of the wonderfully great things. It made me real depressed as I drove through some super intense stuff and it would've been RAD to get some great video. Sigh, Oh well.

People think that if they can drive a car then they can jeep just fine. 

No, they can't, stop trying, you look like an idiot.

On Sunday, I watched Mad Men with my parents. Has anyone reading this seen it? It's pretty fantastic as far as TV shows go. They really put you into the early sixties and make you feel like your there. Though it makes me sad when they say a joke and my parents laugh but I don't get it.. Oh well. Anyway. In that show they made a woman look HUGE. Really she looked awful. It was crazy because you know what she looks like in real life which is really not bad but they make her look terrible. It kinda freaked me out how they did that. 

THEN. My mother and I watched the Vampire Diaries. It's funny that you are talking about sound today because their sound mixer was TERRIBLE this week. Literally, during the show I asked my mom if he was drunk. The dialoge was quiet when the background noise was so loud. It was a terrible mixed and made me sad that my favorite show did such an awful job. 

I think that's about all. OH!

Sidenote: I'm going to Young the Giant tonight and I'm SO STOKED. 

WOOO. 

Friday.

I think I'm getting an ulcer.

I'm sure a part of it is from my diet. I mean three cans of Dr. Pepper and no water every day is probably not the healthiest thing. 

But still, I'm STRESSING. OUT.

This is being so difficult. I am on a time crunch now for my senior project which is freaking me out. 

People are less helpful then ever.

I swear every time I say "Hey, can I film you?" I get "No, I don't look good today." Which you know, I understand to an extent but if I ask a person three b-days in a row you'd think they would get it. 

I feel like I'm being whiny since I only have two classes. But at the same time, I'm running out of time. 

I don't know. It's probably just me.

Sidenote: The trailer for the new Johnny Depp movie Dark Shadows looks stupid.

Wednesday.

WOOOOO 

Makin headway on ma video!!!!

People are helpful...Most of the time.

I can't think of anything really great to say and that 's really all that I've been up to lately. So I think that's all I really want to talk about. It's going to be super great. 

Thursday.

Soooo.. I don't really know what to say so I think I'm going to just keep this up and running throughout today's lesson.

I guess I could catch up on DECA.

I didn't do so hot. Still 7th in the state isn't bad I suppose.

I haven't watched anything really groundbreaking lately. I should find something good. I'm in the middle of season 2 in Dexter and I'm super loving every second of it. I watched Castle last night which is one of my favorite TV shows due to it's ridiculousness. It's really funny. They have really good timing on all of their jokes which makes it easier to watch even though it's super cheesy at times.

In other news: 

Desert Noises has a show on Friday that I'm super stoked for. It's going to be fantastic. They have a few 10-15 second clips on Facebook. They look like good ideas for small commercials that we could easily do for video lab. Since they are just short and don't really go together but yet totally do at the same time. 

The TED talks video we watched was quite interesting. I don't know what else to say about it. He is an amazing story teller obviously since he wrote a few of my favorite Disney movies such as Toy Story, Finding Nemo, and Wall-E. He seemed a little awkward on camera though. He reminded me of Zack in our last video announcements how he kept having to look at the prompter.

Speaking of video announcements: for some reason, I keep feeling like I want to combine that with Political Science? Maybe I could be a news reporter for international affairs or something? I just don't know. But I do know that I probably want to be on camera for next weeks show just because it looks super great. 

People have a tendency to underwhelm. 

It's probably my fault. I need to make myself inspired before other people can get me inspired. I need to rely on myself more to feel a drive. I definitely need to stop counting on other people to make me happy. That's my new goal. 

Apple Store Grand Central Station. AWESOME. It looks super fantastic. I'm really excited to go to there.

Sidenote: I really need to get working on my final project for the seniors. For some reason it didn't dawn on me that graduation is just around the corner. AHH!! 83 days. Intense. 

Wednesday.

So.

Everything is a remix kind of makes you depressed since it really shows that no matter what we are always going to be arguing about something. That people can't stand the thought of someone else using their idea but using someone else's idea is really no big deal. It's ridiculous. Completely 100%. 

The website for everything is a remix is terrible. I was not satisfied as there is literally NOTHING helpful. A few links and that's it! So dumb.

The Lessig blog is super boring. I'm sorry but I'm not interested.

People are greedy.

But I'm super jealous of multimedia one for being able to make a soundtrack. That sounds super fun and not at all lame.

REMINDER: I won't be here on Friday. I know it's sad but nobody take it too hard okay?

Watch Wristcutters: A love story. Sounds messed up, but probably one of the best movies I've ever seen. I also want to watch One flew over the cuckoo's nest. It's on my list, and it's on Netflix so I should watch it. Oh! And Exit through the Gift Shop. That looks super great.

Sidenote: That count song Lauren just showed me is highly inappropriate. Thanks Lauren!!

Monday.

I hate Mondays.

Not because of why everyone else does I assure you.

I hate Mondays because it means that school starts ten minutes earlier for me, and it's a complete and total pointless waste of a school day. I'm here for like two seconds and it's just super dumb. 

This weekend was interesting. 

Friday: I went to a Mooninite house show which was just fantastic. We danced, we shuffled, we got Todd Bordy to crowd surf. Although it was hilarious because the lip of the ceiling came down too low and he totally almost hit his head.

Saturday: I went to a Desert Noises house show which was super awesome. It was someone's birthday and so there was a secret show. Yada yada yada. It was great.

Sunday: NASCAR. The Daytona 500 to be exact. Though sadly, it was very rainy in Florida so it got cancelled. Supposedly it's happening tonight though which will be great. Then, we started watching the red carpet. I hope some of you saw it because of the Sacha Baron Cohen controversy. I don't know if you heard, but he was invited to the Oscars as long as he didn't show up in his dictator uniform from his new movie The Dictator. There was back and forth all week and his tickets were held for a few days until he said he wouldn't do it. Here comes the limo and.... BAM. 

 

Needless to say, people were INFURIATED. It was so wonderful. 

So, Ryan Seacrest being the great little host that he is interviewed 'The Dictator' as he made his way down the carpet. After explaining that the urn was actually full of ashes, he "accidentally" spilled them ALL over Ryan Seacrest.

Hahahaha! Ryan Seacrest was PISSED. Seriously one of the greatest red carpet moments ever. See all of the security guys in the back? Yeah.. the 'dictator' was swiftly removed from the carpet and not invited into the ceremony. Oh man. GREAT tv. 

Then, the show started. After politely laughing about Justin Bieber's appearance, we were a little ill at ease. Then, they did the montage of 'great movies' which included freaking TWILIGHT. I don't know about you, but Twilight should not get to be counted with movies like Titanic, Avatar, and all of the other actually good movies that they showcased. I was a little angry at that.

About 1/3 into the show, I get a phone call from my brother. "Not to alarm you, but there are about fifteen cop cars, a swat team, and one of those trailers that you put bombs in to blow up harmlessly around the corner." It was a little shocking to hear that just four houses down and around a corner was a bomb squad. My parents and I walked down the street trying to see what was going on. What we gathered were people suiting up. That's about it. I still don't know what really happened. Pretty crazy and kind of nerve racking.

Anyway, that was my weekend.

People are crazy.

This morning we had a fantastic show where we all did super good. I'm so happy with the outcome of the show. 

THEN. We just did a run through of Loghan's video. Pretty much I'd watch this movie. It looks pretty dang intense. I'm sure if I had read it from the beginning and had the character development, I would really like it. Good job Loghan. 

Sidenote: I'm going to DECA State this week and it's going to be super great. I wrote an 11 page paper last week and I'm going to see if I can make it to nationals. Wish me luck!

Tuesday.

Hm.

This weekend was strange.

I learned that I am overly-defensive.

I have this knack for feeling backed into a wall after one comment.

That isn't the problem; the problem, is that I attack, and I am very personal about it.

I say things I shouldn't, and things that I don't mean.

I don't know how to feel about this.

Obviously I need to work on it. As it is slowly ruining relationships in my life right now.

People are difficult to read sometimes.

They change their minds before I have time to react. Then it becomes my fault, or my problem to solve.

I don't know what the first step to fix this is, other then stay quiet and think before making any comment in any argument, fight, or even heated discussion.

Sidenote: on a whim, my mom rented Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1 this weekend. We watched it twice. It was horrible. The funny part about it is that we watched Gnomeo and Juliet afterwards and that was a better love story, as well as more realistic. Gnomes. Oh dear.

Valen-Tuesday.

I learned SO much this weekend.

Oh man it was a fantastic weekend.

Friday I tried to get the 'crazy' footage for my video and I'm really not satisfied with how it looks. I'm going to have to re shoot it because I really dislike it. 

Saturday morning I declared a major at UVU which was pretty exciting:

Political Science with an emphasis in World Politics.

Completely different from everything I was thinking.

I went online and started looking at the course catalog and realized I wasn't interested in anything they had. So I kept looking. I found Poly-Sci and BAM, it hit me. I was interested and pretty hooked. I'm sure by the time I actually graduate from there it will be different but as of now I'm pretty content.

That night (Saturday), I went and saw The Artist. Oh boy that is one fantastic movie. I had high expectations going in and it still exceeded them. The way you can communicate with no sound just hit me. It was fantastic seeing the way just the way they moved told the entire story. The words weren't necessary for every line. Funny story actually I got in a fight with a close friend of mine because I was acting strangely that day. It was funny to me because even though I never said anything it was clear I was upset.

Sunday morning I went to the boat show and saw ridiculously priced, over sized boats. It was great. People are funny.

Sunday afternoon I went to a friends house and saw the last twenty minutes of a movie called The Wave. For those of you who have never heard of it before it is set in a High School in Germany and a teacher can't get across how easy it would be for someone like Hitler to dictate how everyone thinks and acts. In trying to teach his students how easy it would be, over the course of a week he gets everyone involved, militarized, and basically worshiping him. It even goes as far as a boy beating his girlfriend because she won't join. The part I saw was the climax, where the teacher is making everyone realize that it was all a trick, and that it was easy for a dictatorship to reign in society. One student claims it was his life and ends up taking the life of another student, as well as his own. The last five minutes is completely wordless even though peoples mouths are moving, but you know every emotion. You can fill in the blanks and you completely understand what every single person is feeling. It made me think of The Artist and again I was amazed at how little needs to be said in order to convey something. The twenty minutes I saw was enough to realize it was a great movie. Supposedly it was even based on a true story in California. Which is weird to me that they decided to set it in Germany where it is more of a touchy subject. Great film though. 

Sidenote: I watched a new video blog that I'm in love with. Though it is completely inappropriate for those under 18. It's called my drunk kitchen. It's on youtube. Pretty self explanatory. I'm not suggesting you watch it. I'm just saying if a bunch of explicit words and an extremely intoxicated girl don't bother you then it's a funny watch.

Friday.

Today, I'm learning how to deal with people.

From mix ups, to mis-communication, to manipulation. 

People are fascinating. 

Finding out what makes them tick, what keeps them going, what gets them up in the morning, why they do the things they do.

I'm in awe. I just want to know about it all.

Today I learned a very valuable lesson that sometimes saying nothing actually isn't saying anything at all. Sometimes words do speak louder then actions. 

It's knowing the situation and when to use your words that really counts.

Wednesday.

Superbowl commercials.

OH man. 

That's all that I have to say.

Monday.

It seems we've come to an impasse. 

You want me to sketch, and I'm not going to.

It's not as if I'm just trying to make anyone angry or specifically refuse to do something, it's just that at the end of the day, I can't draw.

I'm not afflicted with false modesty, I'm not trying to be cute, and I certainly am not trying to be difficult. I cannot draw. It is embarrassing to me to even try, and frankly, it probably just isn't going to happen. 

My apologies.

I did warn you.

Thursday.

Create.

Mindset.

Words.

Video.

Photo.

Peanut butter.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/317nkI/smokingdesigners.com/40-outstanding-black-white-forest-photographs-nick-lisitsin/

Cool.

Tuesday.

I am at a loss.

I don't know what to look at. 

I keep thinking about super bowl commercials and knowing how they will be ruined makes me depressed.

This massive attack song is good but kind of melancholy and is making me sluggish.

The work I have to finish on my senior project is staggering.

I should have brought my flip camera so I could be productive.

I think I'm going to look at sites now and try to find something.

I'm so...uninspired.

I just spent twenty minutes on both stumble upon as well as look book and all I can say is BLAH. Nothing is standing out, nothing is catching my attention, nothing looks that great. I'm at a loss of what to do. The pictures I saw on stumble upon are great whatever but now I've seen almost every good looking nature photo that they've put up. As far as lookbook all I can say is that everyone has the same face in every photo. It's like a clique in high school. It's pointless. I'm so angry. 

Sorry. Broken Jeep. Broken Heart.

Blah.

Wednesday.

I realized about five seconds ago that I haven't posted in nearly a week, and, fearing for my grades, I figured I should come up with something or other.

I am currently watching Romeo+Juliet, the good one.

This one.

It is so wonderfully fantastic and I highly encourage anyone reading my dear little blog to check it out. Personally, I know it word for word, every line, scene, costume change, and facial expression. It's kind of one of my favorites. Plus it made me fall in love with Leonardo but pretty sure everyone who saw it did.

Anyway, This week I haven't really watched anything of importance though I have started compiling a list of movies I truly want to see; the list is as follows:

Moonrise Kingdom

Jeff who lives at home

Into the wild

Wristcutters: a love story

Detachment

Garden State

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou

I'm sure I am forgetting many but this is what the list is so far.

Aw, Paris is dancing with Juliet and has no idea that she has just seen Romeo for the first time and is so infatuated. This movie is just so fantastic.

Back to things, in class today I started working on my new project, but this makes me worry about my old project, valley sounds. I think, however, after I have new project (oh the places you'll go) filmed, I can edit them nearly simultaneously given that I will more fully understand the editing process. Furthermore, I will hopefully have filmed my intro by then...

Oh, Romeo has just realized she is a Capulet, heartbreaking dispair. Now nurse has told Juliet of his being a Montague, though she still looks as if she has hope. This movie is so tragic, sigh. 

Gosh dang it now I'm noticing flaws.

CURSE YOU MR. BROWN

Romeo's mask changes positions multiple times during the party when it keeps cutting back to him. ugh.

NOOOO, now the metal stand he knocked over trying to hide from Juliet is standing back up again.

This is ridiculous, yet sadly okay.

Her hair was pinned up when she fell in the pool and now it is just down.

UGH.

I don't remember watching anything else lately, though I have been reading the girl with the dragon tattoo series which is just wonderfully gripping. I literally finished the second book in two days and the third is nearly over. Great read if anyone is looking for a political thriller. Though I must put up that it is extremely graphic, and doesn't really become political until the second and third book.

Anyway, I think that is all I have to say.

Have a wonderful weekend everybody.

Thursday.

What an interesting day. End of the term blues, over stressed-underfed-running on no sleep teenagers spiraling out of control, a look at a photo shoot that didn't go as expected, and a real life glimpse in to what I'm supposed to be looking for into photography.

I took note of the comment posted about looking into what I actually like about photography, about reflecting on my culture and figuring out where I want to go with it. I made a list after viewing all of the sites I posted last time and trying to sum them up in a few words hoping to find some link between all of them:

Hipsters

Creepy old pictures

Books/libraries

Palindrome. Learning

Real life new york

Blog interface/ whimsical shots

Celebrities/real looking portraits

Extreme close up/black and white/detail

New york.

Old school/vintage lighting concept, run down, old, growth

Vintage, blurry

Celebrities, real looking.

While looking at this list I found a clash, between modern and extremely old age. I LOVE New York, the bright spiraling loud city. I love modern straight lines clean cut but yet I love old photos. I like vintage-looking photos. The bus in the field just stuck out to me. The clash of the in between:

Like this for example, I love how straight on all the lines go, yet the under growth looks so perfect next to it. And the dark color palette just finishes the photo for me. Makes it look like it's supposed to be there. I can't decide if it's modern elements that I love more or the more vintage elements. 

I also figured out that since I love books and architecture so much these libraries really just stood out to me. specifically this one:

The clean lines just freaked me out in the greatest way. Plus the thousands of books just waiting to be read, and the sunlight filtering in making it look like the most fantastic place to sit down and read. Oh I really truly just love it. Plus the photo composition itself is wonderful, you have your rule of thirds down to a t, your focus directly in the middle, and your eye just flows with all of the straight lines directing you around this temple of knowledge. 

I'm going to keep trying to find the elements that catch me and relate them to the things that I love and that define me. Lets see how this turns out. 

Tuesday.

Just watched Eat Move Learn videos. Super great. I'm writing vimeo down right here right now so I can remember what it is. Today I looked through a whole lot of sites and here are a few of them.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/2lg2bk/media.divinecaroline.com/ext/article_images2/hipster/hipster_lg.jpg/ best list of all time.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/1Vt2Kp/www.cracked.com/article_19512_16-real-old-timey-photographs-that-will-give-you-nightmares.html/ so weird.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/2YXNG4/www.miragebookmark.ch/most-interesting-libraries.htm/ I want to go to these

http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/2yplgk/www.sadanduseless.com/2010/10/words-on-pictures-part-13/ palindrome. We all learn something new every day

http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/2pvagS/blogs.wsj.com/photojournal/2010/08/30/awake-in-the-sleeping-city/ I’M SO GOING TO BE THERE!!!!

http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/9v78rt/www.cartright.com/ I don’t love the photography except for a few of the beauty shots. But the interface of the website is really quite something.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/2hm87g/www.mullerphoto.com/ Have you ever seen a famous person? This guy probably took a picture of them. Go to portraits. It’s slightly insanity.

Sunday.

I suppose since I posted a look I might as well post a post right?
Oh dear weekend you slipped away so fast.
Many a thing happened in the past three days:
One, I cannot go to a certain digital production competition due to the unfortunate tooth extraction going to take place on one friday the thirteenth.
Two, I learned that I appreciate Lord of the Rings far more then I had ever intended to. (I might've watched the entire trilogy)
Three, I miss disco skating. Never thought I'd say that again.
Four, Family domino night is possibly the greatest night ever
Five, Procrastinating is the best form of motivation.
Ha. I really like that last one. Only because it gets you motivated in that last minute to finish. Even though I'm sitting here posting...
It's funny how fast time goes, especially when you are trying to make it go slower.
Yet when you want time to go fast, it just draggssssss on and on. Terrible.
Alas. I've spent more time on here then I was going to already, and here I thought I was being so productive.
TV Shows watched in the past two days: New Girl, Dexter, and Vampire Diaries. So great.
I'm going to hopefully get off now and go do something actually productive, like homework.

Friday.

Today the hammer came down, it was decided everyone in my class had to not only make a blog, but post in it everyday. Sigh. I apologize in advance for the posts about to be endured. Hopefully we can all make it through together.
Before this conclusion came down I have been spending my "very important" class time looking at various blogs, websites, and photos. Here is a list of what I've got so far. Please, enjoy.
P.S. I did make a few comments on a few of them. You can choose to disregard or not.

https://www.stumbleupon.com/su/6KOW1I/dornob.com/artistic-photo-editing-of-everyday-built-environments/ The captions explain it all. Under every photo it talks about how you almost believe the illusion just for a second, before sense comes in and you realize it isn’t real.
