week long camp adventures
My instagram (@impulsings) was taken over for the most part with day camp excursions, as I wanted to do a fun instagram thing on the website, but I did manage to get in a couple noncamp photos in! (random: I can't upload to pictures from my house aka where I spend 99% of my day, so if I ever want to instagram, I have to be down the mountain and we all know how often I go out ...)
Other things that happened this week:
1. My life was taken over by taking and processing photos, so I didn't do much else except eat and sleep.
2. Except that's not completely true, because late into the night I've been reading again! It's a slow pace, but I'm glad to be doing it.
3. Matt bought me an awesome computer game called To The Moon, that I started and finished on Saturday night. Ugh. I cried so much. So. Much. It's such a good story.
4. I got to go see Tim Hawkins in concert! I got to see him two years ago with Matt, and it was great to see him again. (Also, you should click on the link, because that blog/photos (ie my photography) are hilarious/cringe worthy. And incredibly short lived. Oy. But fun to look back on.)
5. Endless browsing on modcloth for things to decorate my future apartment I'll be living in with my friends in just a month and a half ... I'm so excited! It's going to be the single cutest apartment in the history of cuteness and apartments. I'm SO excited to be with my friends again and be in Oregon again. Counting down the days!
Hope you had a great week! It's been an incredibly long one for me, but fun. I took a week off from my internship for camp, and it feels like I've been gone for months. Well, it's back to the daily grind for this girl! If you can count web design and photoshoot adventures daily grinds.
Back when I very first started dating Matt, I went through a phase when I would watch hours of short films on vimeo.com. This was one of the first films I watched, and it's still probably my absolute favorite. Sadly it was deleted from vimeo (and I nearly had a heart attack because I thought I would never get to watch it again), but thankfully it was still on youtube. I've watched it so many times I can't keep count, and every time it makes me tear up. You may need to watch it through a couple times to figure out all the meanings (or you may be smarter than me and get it the first time). It's such a beautiful film. Ugh, I can't get over how wonderful it is. The storyline, the camera shots, the shallow depth of field, the visual pieces the viewer has to put together to grasp the storyline ... it's perfect.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

I still have two more outfits to post from the remix my closet post, but seeing that a. I haven't photographed those outfits yet (and don't really feel like doing so at this exact moment), and b. I don't want to fall off the face of the blogging planet, I shall leave you with some photos from a few days ago! All this week I've been taking photos for a day camp, which you can see the progress of here, and it's been pretty eventful to say the least! I'm learning just how much I hate bad lighting, from poorly lit museums to harsh overhead sunlight, and I'm learning how to compensate. Seriously, if it weren't for RAW files (which basically saves all the data of the photograph so you can change the exposure and stuff later), I would be in big trouble. It's been tiring running around, trying to shoot down kids (with the camera!) for hours, and then coming home and sorting through hundreds of photos, processing them, and putting them online in a timely manner for people to purchase. But I've gotten some great photos from it, so I'm happy.
Hope you have a great rest of the week!
