I never expect things when they come. One minute I'm minding my ow, then the next I'm swept off my feet. I know it won't last, not because it doesn't work, but because of a split in paths. And even though I know he's going to leave, and I know he still cares, it doesn't make it hurt any less.
School takes us all sorts of places, and sadly I'm stuck here and he's over there on the exact opposite side of the world, a 14 hour time difference.
Its only been two days and I feel weird. Like I'm forgetting something somewhere. It doesn't help that I haven't heard a word for two days. It makes my imagination pick up, even though i'm sure everything is fine.
I know how to divert my attention from the constant swirl of memories, but I don't always feel like ignoring them. I want to relive those moments.
I can't wait until I hear from you.
I miss you!

It been awhile since I was really active here on DA. But hopefully thats going to change. i just got a ton of film for my old Pentex manual camera. I'm trying out candid shots of my family and friends. It seems more important to me ever since one of my childhood friends died on new years.
I've put together many albums of all my friends ever since. I guess its my way of dealing with her death.
I recently graduated from college. Everything is under control, even though it didn't go the way i wanted. But change is good. it keeps me flexible.

Many things have changed, most of all myself. I believe for the better. I will not settle for less than i expect, I will not keep my thoughts internal, I will not be stepped on. Call me a bitch, but I feel I've let myself fall to lower and lower standards, for everything. That's no longer going to happen.
You want hang with me? Better be able to keep up!

Ok on to less self discovery. My winter camping trip ended in a blizzard. But me and my group returned safely, thanks to the amazing driving skills of one of our party, who knew exactly how to handle an icey road covered in powdery snow. Also thanks to him, we had dry firewood, enough cooking utensils, and basically a more wonderfully planned trip! Thanks!

My grades are up, I'm applying to grad school, low on cash and loving my life! Things seem down but I feel more alive than ever, so i must be doing something right!

Well, its a good thing sometimes when the mood swing is over, but I will always remember that fact that it happened, even though I've forgiven it.

Classes are murdering me, thank god for weekends. Sorry about the lack of stuff thats new and experimental and awesome, i just haven't had time to do a formal set for awhile. I'll look for time though, don't worry!

Quantitative statistical analysis is beginning to make sense, skeleton study is becoming fun again, and good friends are getting even better. Things are looking up, and I'm very grateful for it.

Just goes to show that even when it rains, the sun is still shining behind the clouds. One only has to weather the storm to see it again.

So I am the queen of wrecking my own life...
I haven't been able to write at all or shoot because of school and work. I also have had a really messy time with my now ex soldier-boyfriend. I really fucked that one up good.

Lets just say sometimes white lies should stay lies. I am now an advocate of the honest truth for everything, no exceptions. But, in the case of my insane screw up, i should have just kept my mouth shut. Oh, I'm not saying I wished we were still together, I just wish I had been less cruel. I wish we could have been friends, not just disappear into nothing all of a sudden. I forget sometimes that we are not on speaking terms. it really sucks. But, life goes on, and I have learned a lot from this experience. I hope in time he can forgive me. I've already forgiven him.

Aside from me torturing myself romantically, i'm doing it mentally too. I signed up for graduate level courses as an undergrad and am feeling the pain of frustration. Quantitative statistical analysis just doesn't seem like a good idea at the moment, not to mention the memorization of the skeletal formations of the Kingdom mammalia, and all of the "missing links" in the evolutionary chain between apes and human. Oh, not to mention also the huge accessioning project i have to do for an archaeological site which hasn't been looked at since it was excavated in 1989... thanks lazy archaeologist for leaving your work for me....
On a happier note, i get to see all my friends and make new ones! This i am excited for, and makes everything else bother me less! Thank goodness for good friends!
Ok I'm done bitching and moaning for now. I'll put up what shoots I have left on my camera and hopefully come up with some new ones, and also perhaps some new models!
