the skydive.

it was amazing, you are really just falling out of the sky. i couldn't believe it, it was an amazing feeling. it was scary, intense and beautiful all at the same time. i really still cant believe i did it.

the jumpsuit was pretty awesome.

this technically isn't me but we will pretend. this is at least what we looked liked, falling out of the sky.

and then you land, i was fearing we would crash into the ground or something but we glided nice and slow.

this is my friend steve, he watched the fear in my eyes and laughed when the video guy asked me "any last words?" and i replied "i dont want to die." then me and my Tandem Master, Fish, fell out of the plane and into the sky. we free fell for about 50 seconds, that was intense, then Fish let me control the parachute, it was so good. i will do it again and maybe just maybe solo skydive. that will be the day.

HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY! my little omi has grown up to be such a beautiful little girl. oh how she has grown. i remember when she was a little 2 month old and i would sit there and try to rock her to sleep. sometimes she'll still crawl up into my lap and want me to hold her like a "baby". time certainly has gone by so fast.




art.

my spring class ends this monday and then i will have the rest of the summer to play, work and play some more!
this work isn't from my spring class but from my Alternative II class this winter semester. it took me the whole semester to get my images to look right and to actually stay on the glass, when the image started appearing in the developer and i noticed it wasn't fringing off i danced in the darkroom. it was a happy moment.

welcome, welcome

so after much questioning and no good answers as to why i don't have a blog...here it is!
i think it was the fact that my sister Heather started blogging that really got me thinking, "if she can do, then i can do it."
thank you Heather and to all those that questioned, heres your answers.
