i finally ordered this.

i had it shipped home, hopefully it will be delivered when i'm there!

i've been pining after this camera for years and i finally decided to spend the money on it. three weeks of summer camp for this camera. money that could be spent on books or study abroad. but i'll work this summer. i'll try to get a job on campus next year. any time i've needed/wanted a job i've been able to find one.

and i'm going to take the best photographs ever.

life is good.

housing worked out excellently for next year; we didn't get the suite we wanted but we're going to stay on our floor. and what is even better: all of our friends are staying here too! so next year is going to be great too.

i started looking at schedules for next semester, so far it's very similar to my schedule this semester.

i have also been attempting to acquire a job for this summer. so far it's either
1) lighthouse, if i can reach john
2) harvey camp, even though there's 6 people who'd like 1 spot
3) caramoor, in the box office, if i can schedule an interview and get hired

we'll see.

binghamton is amazing.

first legit snowfall on campus...

...unfortunately it melted by the afternoon.

dad, carla, drew and i took a trip to ithaca. we went to buttermilk falls and hiked to almost the top of the fall. it was beautiful. i will post the rest of the photos later this week.

after the hike we headed to cornell's collegetown for delicious bagels and to explore the campus. fortunately claude was around so we dropped by her dorm for a bit.

it was a very good weekend, great to be with family and friends.

this is where i live.

beauty.

2007-10-25T15:23:11Z

new hampshire, late july. my second cousin jon was married here. i had never been to a wedding before (if i had, i must have been too young to remember.) it was a beautiful service - short but meaningful.

you can't tell from the photo the true beauty of the location; perfect weather, a huge open field, surrounded by trees and mountains.

---

i love being here at binghamton university. it has such a collegiate atmosphere - there are many options when it comes to classes, and so many things going on around campus.

i don't like the architecture but then again, it is an engineering school. and even though the arts program is small, its welcoming.

when i walk around campus i just feel so fortunate to be here. i am truly lucky. still... even though its mid-semester. i guess the shock and relief of actually getting out of my hometown still hasn't worn off. i had been looking forward to graduation and moving onwards for so long it still doesn't feel like a reality.

save our jobs.

2007-10-24T20:19:34Z

in keane, NH. a boarded-up building with grafitti - save our jobs.

keane is a tourist attraction, artsy shops and little restaurants. it is one street long. once you drive on streets parallel to the main street, it seems that the main street is a movie set, with old houses in the background. the view from main street is mostly boarded up buildings and vacant dirt lots.

three mostly unrelated summer photos.

jojo's was a cute little ice cream stand we came across in virginia. not that we were looking for ice cream: it was mostly to get out of the car. it took hours to get out of richmond.

charleston, south carolina. how to get to the porch, from inside/outside the house. it's cooler outside usually because of the ocean breeze - houses were built to so that the porches would be subject to as much breeze as possible. families would eat and sometimes even sleep on their porches.

i wish it wasn't so blurry - but this was to get to an outdoor patio restaurant, also in charleston.

if you ever get the chance to visit charleston, do it. don't be too turned off by the fact that it's quite a tourist city - my brother and i found some great local stores that gave the city flavor. unfortunately we also stumbled across a street with stores we could have gone to at a mall.

charleston's cobblestone streets are still drenched in civil war memories, especially in the historic district, where one needs a permit to do anything to their house, it's definately still a worth a visit. (can you say private property rights??)

charleston, south carolina. an outdoor gallery on a hidden patio.

and during THE war...

2007-10-21T17:33:55Z

this is, i believe, the oldest pharmacy in charleston, south carolina. and since it's a historic district, it's one of the few establishments with neon lighting.

after re-painting over the summer, i switched with my brother so he can have the bigger room while i am at college.

it's parents weekend - my family is coming up to see me!!

really really free markets.

2007-10-19T20:22:21Z

mr. booth by the sign for the first really really free market over the summer - june 10th. there is another one tomorrow, actually. i wish i was around to go.

"Get Free Stuff at the Really Really Free Market!

RRFM is a community event where everyone brings old stuff and everything is free. In addition to the free stuff there will be music and workshops and general fun. Good things to bring include, books, CDS, clothes (especially winter clothes), working electronics, and other household appliances.

Saturday, October 20th, 12-6pm
St Bart's Church, 82 Prospect St., White Plains."

if you're around, head over and say hi to Jon Booth for me. the more people that go, the better the event is. bring a blanket, clean out your closet. there will be tables set up for workshops and bands playing - all in all a great time!

there's no need to support coorporations that exploit workers and deplete the environment. there is more than enough to go around - so there is no need to buy anything! the Really Really Free Market isn't about saving money - it's about working together to bring about positive social change.

this is a great event. i got a few things i was wanting, and i gave a few things away. it's rewarding - i saw a kid pick up some of my old toys, and someone will make good use of those shoes that didn't fit. and i've been drinking from that coffee mug set every day here.

these phones call 911.

2007-10-18T21:12:16Z

i spend a lot of time in the practice rooms.
or at least i feel that way.

2007-10-17T19:47:18Z

hello - i'm back. i'll try to post a photo a day... hopefully. i miss taking photos and i'm not fond of my camera's quality. i found out that the camera i want has dropped in price by about 60% since i started lusting after it - but the new models are 2x as better. i'll probably wait a few more months before i buy a new camera.

anyway, i present binghamton university's bartle library.

college is great, i don't know why we couldn't have started it earlier. this is totally where i was meant to be; it's definately an ideal lifestyle. not too much work, a lot of music - listening, playing, and a lot of new people.

binghamton, april 5th

the air: freezing cold.
spring break; an empty campus
the wind was howling

someone had painted
candy names of dorm buildings
a sketchy white truck

vacant practice rooms
with red telephones inside
in case of attack

the rehearsal space
awaiting rearrangement
for a west side story

admissions gave us
statistics, this year had been
the toughest one yet

clean (model) dorm room?
one sweatshirt, one pizza box
unbe(live)able

they told me i'd get
free laundry. thank god i won't
have to save quarters.

radio control.
i can tell from the stickers:
this is my new home.

these purple couches
don't look that comfortable
that's SUNY for you.

to be honest, i took only the first three photos of this post. however, i wanted to share them because my brother does take good pictures. it does help that he is a foot taller than me, and therefore it's quite easy for him to take amazing crowd photos.

it was a beautiful day.

that's what i can see from down there.

my brother, evan, took the following four:

my favorite!

our school usually has the biggest group there... stolen from holly.

we took a drive up to binghamton yesterday.
this is my favorite; more pictures later.

related, and much better: informal portrait.

times square. i love the city at night.

experimenting w/ contrast and direction.

j-lin!

from the 19th floor at the hotel.

although i despise my camera at times, i felt these artsy shots came out particularly well. perhaps the rest will be posted on facebook, eventually.

i made a new notebook of completely reused/recycle-able material with some composition notebooks from third grade and a hint of creativity. i ripped out the unused pages and bonded them together with pieces of cardboard from other notebooks using a 3-hole punch and leather shoestring.
