Man, time flies, it just seems like thursday when I was excited for my first holiday...and now I'm sad because my next holiday isn't until Thanksgiving. LAME.
Thursday, went to class...Went to Wolf camera. found out that my pictures are going to take 7-10 business days to pick up, oops. I should have asked about that before I left, oh well live and learn. Bought 2 rolls of film, 24 exp. :( I need 36 for class, again didn't check until I got home and after I opened the box. oh well Live and Learn, I just really wasn't focused on Thursday. :( Hung out with Elisa WHOOOO and Mr. Poopie Pants, who is going to be put up for adoption :( sadly, so we walked the dogs for about a half hour, then Elisa abandoned me to go to work.
Friday, went with Maria to Barney's freaking best burgers ever. My intentions were not totally pure, I wanted to use Maria for all of her photography knowledge :D :D :D So she drove the red car! never got to ride in a Del Sol before* (for more than 30 seconds that is) We hung out at my house for a bit, she helped me use up the stupid role of 24 exp. that I used and then showed me some of her old projects and stuff and unloaded infinite amounts of knowledge on me. I learned more from her in 30 minutes than I have from my instructor the 2 or 3 weeks I've been in that class.
Then she so skillfully drove us to Berkeley to the most awesome photo shop which actually has the film I need unlike Wolf Camera and the stupid bookstore. I bought some awesome film and paper packages so when it comes time to print I don't even need to go out to get paper WHOO! At the photoshop Maria also unloaded her super knowledge of German knowing the phrase "Boring Postcards." There was a book titled "Boring Postcards" in german at the register and Maria just read it outloud, like she speaks german everday. It was awesome. And then it was off to Albany :) Barney's burgers, my first photo assignment was to photograph the "Great American Burger" or "something of special importance..." the burger seemed to fit both. LoL So I learned a lot more, took a bunch of photographs, of maria and burgers and milkshakes. I had a "Turkish Coffee Milkshake" ... which we decided was basically all of the left over coffee grounds from the past week put in with some vanilla ice cream and milk. It was AWESOME. I was seriously up for the rest of the weekend on that LoL. Ate a bacon cheese burger which filled me up for the next 24 hours. Maria gave me an awesome scenic tour of the whole east bay, and so skillfully avoided traffic. Her beauty cannot be tainted by sitting in traffic. We also dropped a burger off at Sportsmart to Ben who was working. passed the "Scrapper Gurls" car or something...interesting colors
Came back home, then went to the A's game for fireworks night. Good game, kinda cold, but the fireworks were awesome :D Man I didn't eat anything that whole day...not until noon the next day...and I didn't even eat the whole burger. oi.
Saturday went to Gilroy for outlet shopping, bought 2 shirts, only 5 bucks at the gap, everywhere was major sales for Labor Day. Jeans were like 14.99, but I didn't really need anything, so I tried not to buy anything...Ate dinner at Mimi's Cafe, had this grilled chicken with MASHED POTATOES AND GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVY!
Sunday Volunteered...slept, did homework, breaked, homework and then went to dinner in Burlingame (i can't spell.) at an Italian Restaurant, Il Foranio awesome bread, the actual meal was alright... But they had matchboxes which was way cool :)
Today, did homework, watched tv, studied for some quizzes...relaxed and chilled at home :) wonderful day. :)
