done with photo assignments, as for shooting them. have to put together a final comp book--easy enough. still have a final in english and an essay. ugh. persuasive, research one. triple-quadruple-quintuple-bajillionuple UGH! makes me very unhappy. 

was up til 5:30am shooting and being shot (editorial portrait, one of the new posts). was bryant's model for both of his shots.. and bryant was mine.. and bryant&i were both models for one of alex's shots. lame that it took so long and went so far into the night. i couldn't even stand up straight--i kept teetering this way and that. but the shots came out pretty nice i guess. weird thing is that i used one of bryant's lighting setups (except for one part) and i got a better grade on the image than he did. i mean.. i think my image looked better. but it was still the same set up. he got kind of upset. he got B C and A and i got 3 A's. i think the teacher's biased. and also for the fact that i got a smiley face on my paper--i think she's trying to be nice. damn the fact that i used that white lie. just hope that we BOTH pass, not just me. that would be super lame. i think we both will--we'll see :\ 

had english class, that was a waste of time for me. going over semi colons and colons. and the comma quiz (put it in the right place and name the rule of why you put it there). i got the only A.. and an A- at that. i don't know how many b's or c's, but it was mostly d's. super sad. i studied for that like.. 5min before the quiz. eh. oh well. and the rest of the time we worked on our essays that are due friday... and i had nothing to show for it. 

need motivation.

at least we got out early (6:00 not 6:45). wanted to stop by calumet or samy's (photo equipment places) to get an umbrella for my flash and another one for bryant--i accidentally broke his diffusion flat stand thing, but they both closed at 6pm. lame. went to chipotle to get dinner.. came back, ate. was way too tired to go home to shower--was supposed to but eh. haven't yet, obviously. lame. i feel gross--doesn't help that i almost pulled an all nighter last night, in terms of staying up late (slept til 12:00, had class at 12:45). took a 1-2 hour nap... woke up.. posted to the other blog (brooksperience) and then.. am here. whoo. how exciting. bryant's still sleeping. oh. well. he's just stirring but i doubt he'll wake up. 

six months on thursday!! i found a breakfast place--well, my mom did. it was on the food network channel. apparently it looks pretty good. giada went there--and bryant looooves giada. i do too. so it must be good :P taking him there for breakfast (i think i said that before) and.. after that, i don't know. apparently no dinner reservations anywhere but he has plans. one set that he's going to do and another that he's planning on maybe doing.. he only told me 'cause i was having a rough week last week. or earlier this week? i forgot. i'm excited :) we're doing really well again.

he just woke up. it's about midnight. i still haven't showered. this post has been open for awhile. i need to think of something interesting to write and post this... oh! kat and james (hu and griffith) are together--don't know if you guys have known this--for awhile. and they just asked me to take pictures of them. and possibly even their..

james: can we ask her to take our wedding photos?

me: LOL she already intends to
james: ahaha
james: and engagement pics
james: actually could we con her into taking some of us?
james: we hardly have any of us

sweet :D totally excited. my next class is ALL about lighting people (called LP actually... 201) so... i HOPE i'll be all good at lighting people. well. couples specifically--have an assignment called "studio couple". yup. hopefully i can take that and apply it with flash and whatnot. hope so. it'll be so cool! i'm super psyched :D

okay. can't remember what else to post. beth, i hope you've figured out a date for the sleepover~ love you gals x0xo
