A good day

I had a pretty good day today. I wasn't excited about the week though...what with the Presidential candidate, and worries over what's to come and what kind of "CHANGE" we have to look forward to...I really hope Obama is all he says he is, and that he really is going to promote "good change" I will try to hold my doubt at bay...

But TODAY was fantastic. I LOVE my photography class. Can I say that again...I LOVE my photography class! It's been so much fun. This last assignment (I will try to get a photocopy on here for you all to see) I shot pictures of my brother Shiloh, and a pregnant gal, and Shilohs girlfriend. It was a lot of fun. I made up my own studio, and made some good lighting, etc. Well, today was critique in class, and my teacher said he was "extremely impressed" with my shots and the "great lighting" I came up with. He even said he'd like to trade me one of his prints (He sells them for between 35-85) for one of mine that I did this week. It made me feel really great! I think I'm getting better as I go along, and being able to see things better through my lens...how to make things look good. I'm having a lot of fun with the class. I'm not however having as much fun with Ceramics...I don't love it at all. I stink at working with my hands...

I'll be sad to leave my photo 1 class, because my teacher is awesome, and the class is a class full of about 15 girls, and we have all become great friends, and they are so nice. That's rare for me to feel that way, because I rarely get along with girls, but they are just so nice, and we have a lot of fun together. But I guess in order to advance, you have to keep moving on.

Aspen has had roseola (Sp?) this week. She's been SOOOO grumpy!!!! Ugh. Poor girl, she is so uncomfortable. We have had a year of it. One sickness after another. But we are gonna start getting on the up and up here!
