Summer Session the Second

Mon Jun 29, 2009, 10:52 AM
First summer session has ended, and with it three classes. I'm relieved, to say the least, because it was a lot of work and a lot of stress and it severely reduced any free time that I had hoped to have. But now! Now it's second session, and Steph and I are only taking one class, and it's an online art history class (20th Century Art and Architecture, to be exact). It's a subject that I like, but I soon realized, today, as I opened the textbook... that the textbook is pretty bad. As in, it's written in pretentious art critic jargon, and it's damn near impossible to read. (I... I really don't like art textbooks. At all.) Anyway, we'll be slogging through that for the next six weeks, for better or for worse.

Fourth of July is coming up, and Steph and I are heading downstate to her parents' place, and my parents are driving north to meet us there. We're leaving... this Thursday. Yeah. It'll be crazy because of all the festivities going on there and the huge influx of tourists, but I'm looking forward to seeing my folks. We'll be there for the fireworks, Heritage Fest, Cherry Festival, etc. It'll be nice to get out of Marquette for a little while~

Hopefully, with more free time, I can focus more on drawing, photography, etc.

Hey! Just thought I'd warn you, this chick is stealing people's art and I noticed she had one of your pictures up and is claiming she made it. I'd report her if I were you.

Thanks for the heads-up. Saw two of my pictures there... definitely reported her.
Hey thanks for the fave and great Gallery, You definatly have a nack for architectural photography, which I find really difficult. I especially liked your fish market photo. It would great to see some more of your photos with that photojournalistic style. Ill watch to see what happens

Thanks for the watch! I'll get working on putting up more photographs here... right now the weather where I live is not being very conducive to photography (it's still snowing). You've got a great-looking gallery too, so I think I'll return that watch. It's always refreshing to see some good photography on dA.
Thank you for the fav :)
thank you very much
