Been a while

Well today is Thanksgiving and I am lying on my bed at 1 in the afternoon. Do you know why? BECAUSE I CAN! The Fall quarter has just ended at SCAD. I have taken all my exams and finished all my projects and I have nothing to do, for now...
This quarter was a real kick in the balls. The workload hasn't gotten worse but I did start a new job that actually requires me to work (go figure!) and I am realizing more and more that my commute takes a good chunk of time out of my day. My hardest class this quarter was photography. I do enjoy taking pictures but if you don't have a high-end digital camera, getting film developed, printed and then scanning negatives to edit and play with in photoshop is a long ass process. Plus you really have no idea how your pictures will turn out till they get developed, where if you do digital you get that instant gratification.
The picture posted is of my buddy Kelsey. My final project was to do interpretive portraits of people and this was part of that. I think it is a really funny picture but it also tells you a lot about Kelsey. First and foremost the kid has a rubber face that can make great expressions...along the same lines as Jim Carrey.
So, I am going to eat dinner at a friends house later in the day. Which means I have a lot of time to do laundry and stuff, which in my current state means I will probably just sit on my ass some more because I CAN!
Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving, feel free to drop a line. Oh, and if you post on my blog you damn well better sign your name...this anonymous crap sucks!
