PHOTOGRAM!

In my photography class last night, we learned how to make pictogram's! it was pretty cool. and tomorrow we're going to make our own, and I'm really exited about it.


So what is a photo gram, you might ask? all you do is put an object on a piece of photo paper and then expose it to light, then develop the paper, and it turns out something like this...





Its kind of a revese shadow.

And thats a pohtogram. This should be fun.

Today.

Today I stared school... Not so bad. I relay like my psychology professor. He went off on about five or six random little tangents that took about fifteen to twenty minutes each. and that was just during attendance!
I found Katie! we have a break in classes at the exact same time, and plan to hang out a bunch this semester, which makes me happy. I do like that Katie girl...
So any way, I'm writing from the school library because I'm so very board. my next class doesn't start till 4:00 and I'm stuck hear. when I get my drivers licence, I can go places and visit people in this time, but for now I'm stuck.

The End.

Quotes and Irony.

Today I went quote hunting. I haven't done that in a long time, so it was nice. I think that its pretty odd that I collect quotes. I know some people collect quotes for people they know, but I collect them from anyone. mostly famous people. I had a book that was mostly full, but I lost it.
any way, hear are some of my favorites that I found today.

1)“A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.”
-C.S. Lewis

2)“This is one of the miracles of love: It gives a power of seeing through its own enchantments and yet not being disenchanted.”
-Ibid

3)“You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.”
Ibid

4)“I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.”
-Abraham Lincoln

5)“Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.”
-Mark Twain

6)“If your daily life seems poor, do not blame it; blame yourself that you are not poet enough to call forth its riches; for the Creator, there is no poverty.”
-Rainer Maria Rilke

7)“How happy is the blameless Vestals lot! The world forgetting, by the world forgot. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! Each prayer accepted, and each wish resigned.”
-Alexander Pope

Oh how I love quotes! the only downside is that now it will take forever to put them all in my book... oh well.

I realized today that I picked up a habit from Jesse that use to annoy me to no end. When he had nothing to do, he would just pace the house and snap his fingers. It would annoy me. But now I do it , too. Oh the irony...

something that made me laugh

So I was just looking at my info. to make sure that I didn't miss spell, or mess anything up (I have some rather scatterbrained tendencies) and it turned out that I did. When i put in my birthday, instead of putting "1991" I put just 91. So on my profile it said that I was 1917 years old!
So anyway, that's my random story for the day. (don't worry, i won't really tell those every day) I don't know if anyone else will find it funny, but I did.

Down

Going down stairs. It was like going int a past world. A world that I was once a part of. I found my Romanian Bird whistle that Sarah gave me when I was nine. And a note from Emily from a few years back. I was reminded of how silly we were, back then. But also I was reminded of the way things were when I didn't see as clearly as I do now. the memories were foggy, and blurred together. Memories of when I would sink into my own mind and not come out for days, weeks, sometimes months.
But I see now how harmful that can be. When the only things you truly see and hear are from yourself...When you don't let others in.
But thing are different now. Different is not always better. Different can hurt. But this difference has brought with it, a joy unlike any I have had before. I know that the joy and the difference came from Him.(God) From loving him as best I can and trying to love others in the way that I know he loves me and them.
There was something inside of me. holding me back, not letting me be what I knew I was capable of. I am glad to tell you all that it has left. I don't know when it left, or how, but it is gone.
"And so it took doing down to realize that I was realy going up..."

New year, New blog.

Ok, so it' s the 12th, and the new year is already started, but it's still early. Anyway, this is a new blog.
I have never had a blog that was verry sucsesful, because I'm not good at writing every day.
But I'm pretty determand to make this one differant.
So today I took the test to get my drivers licence for the second time, and failed for the second time...so yeah, that sucks. I usualy don't get up set over thing like that but today I was for some reason. It realy anoyed me because I knoew I shouldn't be, but I was.
and i'm gonna stop talking about that now because I don't want to complain. (even thou I already did.)
Thats about all for today.
