Sucksess

A year ago I used to be logged into blogger for long periods of time pondering what I would write about because I never did anything except sit in my bedroom. Now I'm sitting and pondering what I'm going to write because I've done so many exciting things recently. That makes me happy.

I'm choosing to tell stories through pictures today. Enjoy.

Since purchasing a Hi-definition videocamera with graduation money, I've really been into making short documentaries. I've made three so far, and I plan on many more. The first is called "Ladies of South Congress" and follows me and lovely female friends as we shop in a funky part of Austin. The second is "A Day in Denton" and follows my friend Jessi and I as we hang out in the park, play with our boss's dog, visit town square, etc. And the final is called "Snow Day" and was shot two days ago when we had a freak snowfall out of nowhere.

This carnival comes through every once in a while and parks in our mall's parking lot. I had a hankering for some cheap, dangerous carnival rides...so we went. These are some photos Jessi took with the slow-shutter speed.

If you're ever in Denton, visit Recycled...great books, DVDs, music. And it totally smells like my grandma's attic.

It snowed on Jessi's birthday and the only place open was Chili's. At least she got a few drinks in her!
