Herro,
Sorry for the delay! I've been busy with school work and various projects. I'm not fully back up in running the blogging sense, this entry is more about letting the people (you guys) know about some pretty cool shiz coming up! Shiz that I'm involved in.
#1
All of you CWUers should join me on the Thursday, October 28th down at D&M Coffee for their Open Mic night! I WILL be preforming and it WILL be awesome!
#2
I am putting on my own Open Mic Night for my COM 202 class. This is a display of students utilizing their First Amendment rights! It's Called 'Got Beef?' and anyone can get up on that Mic and just talk about what pisses them off about central. It should be really cool, informative, and possibly a good stress reliever? I'll work on uploading one of the flyers later but for now here is all you need to know:
It's tentatively (we're still waiting to hear back from the reservation people) on Wednesday, November 3rd (same day as my dad's bday!) at 7pm in the SURC Pit! If you want to preform you can basically just show up and get on up there!
Alrgithy then!
P.S. If that informative entry didn't have the pzazz/artsy edge you were looking for, here's a poem I just wrote. Be kind it's only 30 minutes old.
Broken Board Games
I love the feeling of a fresh razor on prickly skin,
How the hair just glides off,
Just like you just glided away, that way, in the opposite direction
What the fuck, man
Leaving me here, alone as the bitter spinster
The girl on the outs, ego in the gutter, right?
Wrong.
While you might think your hand is higher,
I hold the marionette strings
I control the situation
That’s right you should walk with trepidation
Every step you take towards me, every word you throw at me
I’m ready
To block the step and catch the word
Because the playing cards are bent, the dice are loaded and the monopoly went bankrupt
The games over

Hola!
On friday I developed my first camera! I got 25 pictures.
Here were the issues:
-I'm pretty sure I took 28 pictures.
-One picture was too dark.
-a majority were washed out.
The good news:
-I was able to semi-save a portion of the washed out pictures.
-The ones taken outside had fantastic lighting and turned out better than I hoped!
-I'm on my way to discovering how to properly use these disposable cameras!
I'm pretty sure that I should straight up not use flash outside, try to avoid taking pictures when there is just bad light, use the flash inside with dim lighting, and lastly I shouldn't use the flash when the room is full of good natural light.
I got a little trigger happy over the weekend so I have a second camera just waiting to be developed, and a third camera waiting to be used...but I'm going to be using this last one more sparingly because I refuse to buy another one this month.
Here are a few examples of my outcomes:
One I was able to save:
One that was past saving:
And a few that turned out just as I had hoped:
Hopefully I'll have the next one developed within the next few days.
Comment if you would like the link to my flickr to see the rest!

Disposable and Awesome
Hello Blogging World!
"What's on your desk right now?" is a question you may be asking yourself.
Lemme tell ya:
-A mug of cold coffee
-Blank note cards
-Note card holder
-A Lotus Clothing & Jewelry Design bumper sticker
-A roll of masking tape
-My fish Confucius
-A cup full of pens
-A framed picture of me and some amigos at Half Moon Bay
-My Alarmclock/ipod speakers
-Some dumb paperwork
-My Cell Phone
and last but CERTAINLY not least....
- MY DISPOSABLE CAMERA
Many of you are surely wondering why have a disposable camera, and for those of you who are wondering about something else, sorry but you're out of luck because I have no intention of explain anything else besides my camera.
ANYWHO, sometime between summer and last April I miss placed my digital camera (oops) so I have no camera which is sad. Recently, however, I was reminded of the joy disposable cameras brought me, and I also decided I really liked the film quality! So I made a life changing (okay not life changing) decision to document this year with disposable cameras! I will use one a month, and use them sparingly! Although, I'm going to go click crazy with this first one because I get to get another one in like two days!
If you want to see the pictures and aren't one of my facebook friends, THAT SUCKS FOR YOU.....well maybe i'll make a flicker or something...I don't know though...I'm just to excited to think rationally right now!
That's all for now!
Love you all!

YO, what up.
Could a place be any winder?!? Ask me that on Thursday after I visit the wind farm.
P.S Looky Loo, I know who you are *cough**cough* dad! Did you think I wouldn't recognize that blob of hair....OR THE NAME?

8:07 Am.
So Eastern WA is beautiful, and for the most part I really enjoy it....but right now, I have A MAJOR bone to pick with it.
So for the past few days it's been really nice and hot out in the afternoons/late mornings...which is awesome! HOWEVER, on days like today (tuesdays and thursdays) I have a 9am class...and this year I have started a new routine of waking up an hour and half before my first class to get all pretty and such, make some breakfast and get ready for the day (it works wonders)!And today I had to wake up an extra half an hour early so I could edit a paper....so long story short I was up at 7.
Are you ready for the issue at hand? And no, the issue is not me waking up at 7 (even though it sucks) the issue is, I don't have a break in my classes that is long enough for me to come back up to my dorm and change into suitable sunny clothing, so I have to dress for summer in the cool cool mornings! So right now its a nice and chilly 57 degrees and in 45 minutes I get to walk to class in shorts, a tshirt, and a light jacket (thank god for layering).
P.S it turns out I didn't need a full half an hour to edit my essay...

Oh you, you know....
Just reading some poetry before I head out for a night on the town;
By-the-Way
These be the little verses, rough and uncultured, which
I've written in hut and model, deep in the dirty ditch,
On the upturned hod by the palace made for the idle rich.
Out on the happy highway, or lines where the engines go,
Which fact you may hardly credit, still for your doubts 'tis so,
For I am the person who wrote them, and surely to God, I know!
Wrote them beside the hot-plate, or under the chilling skies,
Some of them true as death is, some of them merely lies,
Some of them very foolish, some of them otherwise.
Little sorrows and hopings, little and rugged rhymes,
Some of them maybe distasteful to the moral men of our times,
Some of them marked against me in the Book of the Many Crimes.
These, the Songs of a Navvy, bearing the taint of the brute,
Unasked, uncouth, unworthy out to the world I put,
Stamped with the brand of labor, the heel of a navvy's boot.
-- Patrick MacGill
I promise to post again soon, just waiting on the inspiration!

What?
Eleven followers? I thought I had twelve....suspicious, I sense foul play.
I move back to school on Sunday, so expect a fruitful blog entry sometime the next week!
