update on things
My final fall semester before what is hopefully the start of a new school has been completed. I still have to sit in on one class tomorrow, but I am not so worried about that. Most all of my finals went well, however the pictures that I promised my faithful blog viewers didn't turn out quite like I wanted them to (more on that later). I am also looking for a job, and I seemed to find the perfect job today (a part-time Graphics assistant at OW) but it was already filled.I was searching the internet today and I came acrossed a do-it-yourself article about how to make a macro lens for your camera for under $5 (most macro lenses are pretty expensive). It involves using a Pringles can, which seems pretty interesting, so I will have to try it out. For those of you who are not camera-literate, a macro lens is used to take pictures of things really close-up.
In other news, King Kong is playing this week, and Jon and I will most likely be going to the midnight showing on Wednesday. It looks like it will be a good movie, so I am looking forward to it.
Okay, so on with the story about the pictures. I arrived at the Photo Lab at about 12:30 and I ended up staying there till 5:00 or so, trying to get some good prints. The only problem is, if the chemicals used to develop the pictures are used several times (which they were) they end up changing the color of the prints to a nasty yellow color. Most of the copy prints that I developed had this problem, but I tried my best to crop them. However, the print of the Trinity Bench was missing, so I didn't get the chance to develop any copies of those. I do have some copies (albeit cropped ones) so some of you can either pass on your copies till a later date or you can have the ones I printed out.
Lastly, I just want to mention (for all you beer enthusiasts out there) that I am drinking a beer called Maudite and it is positively out of this world. It's not as thick as a Chimay, but it has a kick to it and it tastes good as well. I found some at the Publix in Destin, and I suggest that you all try some (or at least those who like beer).
That's it for today. I hope that everyone does well on their finals and that they have a safe ride back home.
