Well, after a few very intense weeks at home, I'm back on campus. Things at home were...interesting...but in a good way.
Friday night I went camping at the Portage Quary with Rob, Ian and
Tracy. It was wonderful. It looked like it might rain, but
then the clouds just cleared and the sky came out and it was
beautiful. The booze was good, the company was better, and the
night was great.
I found that I couldn't sleep at one point though. Everyone had passed
out, and I was wide awake. So I sat by the lake and watched the
sun come up. I've never watched the sunrise from when it was
pitch black to when it was all the way up. It was a very calming
experience. I just sat there, thinking and chain smoking.
It was like I experienced every emotion possiable durring that space of
time. I went from introverted, to sad, to angry, to ashamed, to
lonely, to excited, and finally confidant. By the time the sun
was up, I felt like I could take on the world. What I did instead
was go back into the tent and sleep. It was a very interesting
night, one I will not soon forget.
Now that I'm back on campus, it's a lot easier for me to post
photos. I'd like to post one photo everyday, just to keep myself
sharp with my photography. Of course, I probably won't actually
post everyday, but whatever. I'll get started with some pictures
from friday.

Rob being the king of the quary.
Your humble queen of the quary.
Here's a really nice picture of the clock at the courthouse in BG. I like the orange lighting.
I've been listening to Jet today, so I think I'll end with some lyrics from Move On:
Well I been thinking bout the future
But I'm too young to pretend
It's such a waste to always look behind you
Should be lookin' straight ahead
Yeah, I'm gonna have to move on
Before we meet again
Yeah it's hard
If you had have only seen
'Cause every once in a while
You think about if your gonna get yourself together
You should be happy just to be alive
And just because you just don't feel like comin' home
Don't mean that you'll never arrive
