CALIFORNIA

The Long wait is over! Peter and I drove from Columbus OHIO to Los Angeles, we visited old friends and made new friends on our way. Peter stayed in Santa Monica with me for the first week and then moved to La Mirada with his new roomates! Santa Monica is a pretty hip area with very unique restaurants! Unfortunately I have yet to set up a bank account out here and almost everywhere is Cash Only. So anyway the plan for tomorrow is to work with the photographer that i moved to LA to work for, then to build my own bike... we will see how this works... considering my luck... probably wont work for cheap.. I dont have very much money so coming up with an inexpensive, yet quality bike will be very very difficult... :(

Pea pod for 3D Art

This is our final project for my 3D class at OSU. It had to be around 36 inches and made out of wood. It was a site inspired project, where we had to choose an area and design an object to fill in what was missing. I chose the pea pod because my peas have not yet sprouted.

Summer in LA!?!?

Peter and I are planning on living in LA for the summer we have been looking at the map and trying to figure out where we are going to be staying, and other fun things we can and will be doing! we are super excited and also nervous. We are planning on driving there with our friend Kasey coming along for the ride.

a day with Torben and Karen

Pete and I were home for mom's birthday. Torben and Karen were also in on their Holiday to America from Denmark! We had a nice day playing vikingspil, eating deserts and chatting.

Kentucky

Over this past weekend I went camping with The Ohio State University: Anthropology Club. Around 5.5 hour drive down south we ended up in central Kentucky to see the Natural Land Bridge in Daniel Boone Natural Forest. Little did we know that nearly all of Kentucky is dry (no sale of alcohol, this gave us a mission. We ended up finding a little shack that sold beer and other random beverages. We did tons of fun hiking, drinking, eating, and bug swatting. I still do not have a digital camera so these are some pictures that my roommate Alex took. Over all it was a good trip, made some friends, and enjoyed being away from the house.
Cant wait for the next camping trip!

In my photography class we have a project due once a week. That isn't that big of a problem its more that she only gives us one day in the lab to develop and enlarge our photos (and that day is the day she explains the assignment). I tried to explain to her that it was impossible to make perfect prints when there is absolutely no time to work on them, especially with limited lab hours. I am super frustrated and don't know what to do. Well hopefully I can get the project done for Tuesday.
