i'm really alive i promise!

I have officially started the photo program at BYU! YAHOO! Last semester was a SO LAME. because i was accepted in the "art program" had to take art classes that weren't even related to my major.....

Drawing
Freshman seminar
2D design

Serious?? I know. I can't draw this is why i take pictures. Thankfully they took that in consideration when they gave us our grade. and i will admit i did learn a thing or two!

freshman seminar? I am pretty sure this is my 6th year of college--yikes that makes me feel old. and 2D, well that one wasn't to bad, i got to learn to how to "abstract" my work and even got to photograph some of my projects.

But NOW......

I am an official photo Major student :)

I am taking a Black and white film class which i have already taken and don't feel like i need it but they want us to "start at the same level" But at least i get to take pictures and i love the darkroom. Brady wants me to fight it, but honestly it will be a nice review and i know i will learn something out of it....i always do! and besides i don't want to miss anything.

they also just informed us that they accepted 30 students and normally only take 25 so everyone has to take this class and then REAPPLY!! Crazy huh!!! so 5 of us won't make it!!! so this class is super important to do good in so i decided with my life and photo bus. that i am only going to take this class!

Wish me luck!

I am not worried about you. You are already an amazing photographer. And I love you family photos on your photo blog. If I had a dog I would bring him to a photo shoot. Does a kid that acts like a dog count?

So I lost your blog link and then found it again. :-)
Let's get together soon - I mean, outside of class and the dark room. ;-)
