35mm and digital.

me

I took this with an old role of 35mm that I needed to get rid of. That tank is Alexander Wang. I love it, and him. So yeah... This is my new profile picture. Exciting.

Sleigh Bells

This was by far the craziest concert I have ever been to.  Noise pop is just plain. . . well. . . noisy.  The lights and the speakers in the background were so amazing and the flashing just made everything more intense.

woods

The woods behind my house in all of it's 35mm glory.

And speaking of woods, I love that Bon Iver song. You should check it out.

fourth o' July

first of all: HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!

second of all: a short story(ish)
So for every single year of my short life I have been in Minnesota over the 4th. This is the first year that I'm not, because of stupid strep. Wednesday I felt like I was dying. And not in the good way, if there is a good way.  I couldn't swallow, or talk, or breath, or move, or stay conscious.  I was MISERABLE, I tell ya, MISERABLE.  So I had to stay home or risk having strep in Minnesota for the second time (that is another story for another reminiscence, though I will say I was 5, AND had mono at the same time), and infecting family and other people that are like family.  So this is from last year.  I'll miss judging my close relatives for eating dead birds and other animals and maybe the whole family bonding at my family reunion.  Maybe.  At least I have plans so I won't be too depressed on our nations day of celebrating our independence from Britain. Speaking of which I still haven't finished watching the Royal Wedding. . . Maybe I should get on that.

Matt & Kim

I've been to four concerts this summer. It's like I've finally been able to have a social life! But anyways, the last one was Matt & Kim. They were amazing. There was balloons and glitter and crowd surfing (I wish I could have done it, but alas I was with my little brother). What I'm trying to say with this long list is that it was TONS 'O FUN.

CHANGE

I just realized that I have a terrible problem. I start almost every single one of my posts with SO.  This is annoying and I sincerely apologize.  Especially for any time that I do this in the future as I'm sure it will happen again just because I post so erratically that I won't be able to remember that it's a problem. So here's a photo to try to make it up; this always brightens my day (even though it's a little trite).

Damn it. I did it again. Sorry.
