It has been almost two years since I have posted here. During that time, lots has happened, including getting married. I am making a new push to take and edit photos, and hopefully you will see some of that product here on DevArt. Also, just a few months until I graduate from college.

So, two weeks until my sophomore year is over. Then I move out of the dorms and into a house with my friends.

I managed to stag General Manager of Photoservices here on campus, so now I am in charge of all photographs for the school newspaper, yearbook, and more. Power overwhelming.

Even with that, I have not had enough time for photography, hope I can remedy that this summer.

School is finishing up hear, with about two weeks left. Lots of projects to do, labs to catch up on, and headaches to fight.
Working on a calendar to use for xmas gifts, which is getting me to find new stuff, which I may post.

Move in day is on friday. The second year of college approaches. I am really excited. I get to live in a suite with friends, on the same floor as my girlfriend. Yay! Packing is a pain, in fact I am hiding from it right now. Those who know me personally know I have WAYY! to much stuff. And a lot of that has to go to school. And I leave monday morn, driving up and visiting family on the way.

I am now on LiveJournal. You can find me here: [link]
I have been told by many that journalling is good for you. I also figure it will help my friends from back home stay up to date on what is happening with my life at college.

I am pretty excited for classes. I have two computer science classes, e-commerce, where I get to work on practical problems that I am interested it, and software engineering, a distributed programming class that focuses as much on documentation and procedure as code itself. Both classes are with my advisor, who I love, and Software engineering is with my girlfriend and another friend of mine. Then I have circuitry, which should be tons of fun. I am going to reprogram my Marvin the paranoid android figure so that he can speak. Then I have german. I am ambivalent about that one. Hey, 3 out of 4 ain't bad.

Sleep now...

I last wrote about the on campus art contests. Well, here are the results:
Over 90 entries were submitted. I submitted 5 (most was 8, many 1). When we arrived for the reception, five entries were covered (1st - 3rd, there must be a tie). The runners up were on display, with "Fog, Bench, and Tree" [link] in 7th and "Autumnal Leaf" [link] in 4th. For these I will getting some gift certificates. They had sitting out the non-winning submissions. There were some pretty cool concepts, but some people had shot themselves in the foot by submitting 4 almost identical versions of a photo. In amongnst those was "The Devil Inside" [link] which I had retitled "The Spirit Within" for PCness. A did a simple inventory, and could not locate two of my prints. That must mean they are behind the covered easels, getting 3rd, 2nd, or 1st.
And so after people looked around, introductions started, and the runners up were introduced (including my two earlier mentioned pieces). Then the three tied third place photos were unveiled. None of them were mine. It was only a question of which got first, and which got second. "London Eye Fairylights" [link] came in 2nd. And my favorite, "Enchanted" [link] came in first! For each of those I won $100. That will help cover some of the printer supplies cost. Damn, this printer is addictive, and costing me a fair bit.
So I am fairly jazzed, and am looking for some other venues to compete.
