It has come to my attention that this page doesn’t look as great as it could in Netscape. Very odd. I checked it in both browsers before it “went gold” as they say. I’ll do some tweaking this weekend for you NS and Mozilla users.
Holy Shit, Holy Shit, Holy
Holy Shit, Holy Shit, Holy Shit!!!!
Sasha & John Digweed are coming to Avalon in Boston. The date is uncomfired but the appearence itself is. It’ll be the first time the duo is playing together in Bean Town in over 3 years. This better be after Thanksgiving. Please God, please, let them be playing after Thanksgiving. I need to see Sasha and Digweed!!! Please!!!
Well, I remembered to go
Well, I remembered to go to the Bursars Office, and it was a good thing I did. Apparently they are completely stupid and not just “mostly stupid” like I had originally thought. I have to send a few forms back home to have my parents sign them and then I’ll be good to go. I did however, find out that I’ll be getting a large refund this quarter and then next quarter as well. This may have solved my supply money problems. And if there’s enough left over, maybe I might be able to get a new camera. Yah!
Speaking of supplies. I got my package from B&H today. I had order a pack of 11×14 paper for my color photo class but originally when it got here it was pretty beat up. So I sent it back and that was about 3 weeks ago. The replacement finally got here. There was also a note concerning packages from the apartment complex on my door. It seems like everyone else on the planet, they’re scared of Anthrax and so they’ll only accept packages that you tell them are coming. Ex: if I order more photo supplies and forget to tell them, they’d send them back when they got here. How lame is that? Just because you’re scared doesn’t mean you stop doing things normally. I have to actually “sign up” on a list if I’m expecting a package. What if my relatives want to send me something and I don’t know about it? What crap.
Oh well. I guess it’s time for homework. I’ve got to look up information on Cindy Sherman for my 3D class tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll find some good stuff. Later.
Well shit. I guess I’m
Well shit. I guess I’m just going to have to break down and buy a flash. I never really liked using a flash, it always looked rather “fake” but today in color we learned how to use one and not suck… so I might have to order one from B&H. And on that note… I have no idea what flash to get. Usually I’m good about this stuff and have a constant working knowledge of all of my equipment and what things to use with them, but seeing as how I never use a flash, I’m a bit lost. I know I need a “manual or non-TTL” flash that fits into a “hot shoe” but what the hell does that mean? Every flash I’ve looked at is TTL and I don’t know if they have “manual modes” or not. Nikon recommends their own flashes for their cameras (obviously) but their “SpeedLight” models start at $150 and go up. Arg. I’ll figure it out… I’ll just have to find the damn technical specs for my camera (which I own, but I have no idea where I put them).
In other randomness, I got an ego boost in Digital today. I believe the comment from my teacher was “Damn, well, no one will ever accuse you of being an underacheiver”. I was pleased. Oh well. The assignment wasn’t very hard, so I got it done quickly, and after finishing it I kept going. So I had about 12 versions of an image that I only needed 3 of.
I’ve got to remember to go to the Bursars Office after class and make sure my loan stuff went through. I wonder if they’ll screw me and I’ll get money for next semester instead of this semester? Leaving me having to pay for this semester out of pocket (or rather on credit cards). I bet they will. I bet I’ll have a nice chunk of money sitting there but they’ll say that I won’t have any more by January so that I’ll need to use that to pay for next semester instead of paying myself back for this semester. Damn, I hate money. Or, more acuratly, I hate people that control my money and don’t tell me why, when or if I’ll ever see it again.
Lastly, its a damn fine day today. Its about 65, breezy and clear. Man, this is how life should be. I’ve got that nifty jacket on again and I plan on taking a walk to the Bursars Office instead of driving. It’s that nice. Ok, break time is over, back to class I go.
Well, Chris leave today for
Well, Chris leave today for Microsoft. Good luck bro, I doubt you’ll need it, but good luck just the same. I’ve got to copy over my assignment to a zip disk and head to class now. Bye.
