So, I’m currently getting the pictures ready for viewing from 2 of the 2.5 rolls of 35mm film but I thought I’d do a more current update on my life.
For some time now I’ve been planning on going to VCU for photography school. I know that VCU has the #1 arts program in the country for public schools and the #3rd or something for Photography majors. I didn’t really think that was a big deal. So, I was advised to do the “art foundation” courses at my community college since it would be cheaper. What no one told me is that the art foundation is actually a sub school of the School of the Arts! And, since VCU is such a “top school”, you not only have to submit a portfolio to get into the Art School (expected) you have to submit one to get into their prep classes! I was perusing the website and it said to submit 2D & 3D artwork. I was a little confused. Am I supposed to already be a potter or sculptor before I get into school? So I emailed them:
I feel like I should make some kind of post about the “marriage celebration party” my parents had for me and Gael on 27 September 2008 & our “honeymoon” of sorts that weekend.
My mom really went to town with the party. She suggested a Japanese theme so we got some kimono and Asian-esque decorations.
For our honeymoon, we went to Jordan Hollow Inn near Luray Caverns. It was so pretty there & they had over a dozen rescued kitties there! It made me so happy to have lots of kitties around.
Pictures after the cut!
I thought I’d do a picture post today. Ys had asked for some pictures of the rings & I was thinking I’d have to put my macro lens on my camera & snap some 35mm photographs. This is not true! Today, while waiting for Gael to on lunch break from work, I started playing around with my digital camera (that I’ve had for about 2 years) & I realised that it can take sharply focused close- up pictures! Neat! I always wondered what that button with a flower did! 
So, here are some pictures of the rings (mostly mine):
