i love it when i find old stuff i’ve forgotten about…especially film. after the move, i went through all my old camera equipment and came across 4 or 5 rolls of film that were undeveloped. a couple of them were nothing spectacular, and one is still being processed (they said it will take about a week or so). but this one just made me smile. these shots were taken with my Canon AE1 - it was my dad’s and i still love using it. i think some of my best shots ever were taken with this camera.

weekend fun times III

May 13th, 2008

sorry for the delay in posting, but my internet is down at home so i have to find time before work to post…so here goes!

i made it out to taste addison with a few friends on friday. ran into the beautiful nicole who made sure that we got the extra special treatment in vip…nice to have great friends in good places! it was a really nice vibe; lots of people, delicious food, and good music. i surprisingly liked switchfoot a lot…even though it’s not really my thing, the band was really energetic and put on a good show. i’m sure gavin degraw did a good job, but we left mid-set cause i was so tired (lame, i know).
