Stuff.

Gene is getting ready for his show. He's been mounting pictures, matting and framing them.

Watching has been a good learning experience, because that's probably the exact thing that i'll be doing with my pictures.

Winter is no good at all. I need pictures to work on but I don't want them all snowy and gloomy.

When my grandpa died a few years ago, I took my camera to his funeral. I was trying to get a different affect in the pictures. But I accidentally deleted the folder. I was so mad for doing that. Later today, I found out that my dad had a copy of them. Luckily he was able to put them back on my camera, so come Monday, I will have something to do. :)
I thought that it would be disrepectful to take a camera. I felt awkward. But, apparently, I got "one of the most evocative" pictures that my dad has ever seen.

That's my dad being handed the flag.

Who are you going to pulverize if you don't get the Fine Arts award? I didn't know you were so competitive, Allison! Have you always been so? Should I tell you that you are creating the most thorough and insightful blog in our advisory group? No competition there. But I don't have an award.

It is nice to hear that you are able to retrieve the photos from your Grandpa's funeral--it all must have a great deal of sentimental value, too.

Did Lai Lai say yes?
You should come to school to recruit a photographer or two. Fred has the in on it all, really. Rachel Kemper is OK and all, but she really smells. Do you think you want to support smelly artists?

Melissa filled me in on your English credit--it sounds perfect. Great initiative. Good luck on the wheels. Great journal.
