school blues

I'm tired of school crap!!!!!

I'm tired of teachers who grade unfairly.
I'm tired of pickiness where it really doesn't matter!
I'm tired of spending so much in-depth time studying tools and effects that I don't intend on using in my professional life ... perhaps for fun ... but you don't need a class to play with tools and discover for yourself the little things.
I'm tired of having the option of photographing using film, but not enough time in a project to execute.

memories, mine and others'

This past Saturday was my 5th alumni day for All-Ohio Youth Choir. I can't believe that It's been five years since I lived at the fair and sang all those songs every day. I have to admit, I've been a little sentimental since, so I pulled up some youtube videos of a few songs and clips from the fair choir experience. Couldn't find any clips from my years ... portable electronic devices were a little less around back then ... let alone video phones...
