Baby It's Cold Outside

December has arrived! This means several things. First off, it is time to brush off the dust from those Christmas records and start playing Holly Jolly tunes of Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanza/Holiday music (pick your celebrated winter Holiday and insert it's music here).

Also it means that Baby It's Cold Outside Inside. My house is like a freezing icebox and I am cold 24/7. I can't wait to go home for break and be in 70 degree weather again.

December is also my birthday month so I will be celebrating during 23. Finally, December 1st means that we have exactly one month left before the blog will come to an end. No tears necessary - I will be starting another one in 2011 to feed my own ideas of my supposed importance in the world.

The Photographer

The Photographer

Click, a flash. One More memory preserved.
One more picture to look back at when life
Seems to pass by. A true art to capture
The human experience. Joy. Hate. Fear.
The love of a mother. The innocence
Of a small child. The mysteries of life.

There is a strange empty feeling. Somehow,
Lost in the art. A part of my soul, gone.
The passion that once fueled the mind of
Rebel, now withering away like flowers
In winter, covered in snow, awaiting
Their demise. A part of my soul, only,
To be found in one more faded picture.
Perhaps my memories are unfulfilled.

Self and Friend

This is from the old archives for my self portrait for June. Notice the "Awesome Meter Never Lies" shirt. It is quite amazing and wonderful. And factual.

Self in Snow

So it has become tradition for the first day of the month self portrait and here it is. Wearing shorts near the snow isn't the best idea (ok so it was left over snow and it was only like 70 degrees out).

Lady Gaga?

Is this my friend Jane or Lady Gaga? If only you could see the the rest of her outfit - then you would be really scared, as I was. She apparently dressed up for her cast - who loves Lady Gaga. I am not so thrilled about the singer - I do not understand her or her fashion sense.

Why we saw Jane dressed like this: we went to see the Night of One Acts at APU - and Jane was the writer/director of one of the acts. It was of course amazing, just as I knew it would be.

Oh and if Jane dresses like this again (other than for Halloween or a costume related event) I will revoke our friendship.

And really what kind of name is Lady Gaga? Ok - enough of that rant.

Photobooth and Trains

This is what I do on the train ride home. Thank you photobooth on my mac!

Side Show

I went to see the musical Side Show over the weekend. It's a story about conjoined twins and their rise to stardom. Anyway thanks to my iMac - this is what I would look like a conjoined twin. Now I've got work on my singing act.

My Favorite Picture - Part 2

So on February 1st I posted one of my favorite pictures of myself. Since I am rarely (if ever) in my own pictures this might be a common thing to feature a self-portrait at the beginning of each month. We'll see if this catches on. Anyway this is my choice for March.

Speaking of all things awesome - Boggle. New favorite game.

A Field of Flowers

My friend Jonah tells me that there is a large field of flowers so we drive over there with no other purpose but a photoshoot.

I even let Jonah take a few herself. I know I'm out of focus but it has a real artistic quality to it. And the flowers are so beautiful.

Favorite Fremont Freshman

After the Fremont bible study (Philippians 3) Sarah and I took an amazing picture. She is one of my favorite freshman.

But during the bible study we played this funny game. We answered five questions and then when one person read the answers aloud one person was elected to guess. The questions were
1. What would you do if you were invisible
2. If you had to, who in this room would you eat (I was chosen twice!)
3. If you were stuck in any movie, what movie would it be?
4. If you could have breakfast/lunch/dinner with any person (dead or alive) who it would be?
5. If you could have any other talent, what would it be?

My Favorite Picture

Pure awesomeness. I really love that vest too.
