Twisted Perspective - Day 41

Day 41: Twisted Perspective

Twisted: skewed. perspective: angle of view.

The light fixture is in the Holiday Inn next to our Civic Center. I went to go watch the SHS Drumline play and be photojournalist. They were invited to play at the P.E. Teachers convention.

One Lump? - Day 40

Day 40: One Lump?

One: single. Lump: usually of sugar.

"One lump, or two?"

I usually only put ice cubes in my coffee, not sugar cubes. But that's not to say that there isn't sugar involved. ;)

Vana Pedum - Day 38

Day 38

Vana Pedum: Latin for "Idle Feet".

=]

I'm not making this up when I say thats how my shoes were when I took them off. I had been kneling on the floor arranging my quilt so I could get a decent picture of it for my sister, and I shucked my shoes, and thats how that happened.

Hidden Agenda - Day 37

Day 37: Hidden Agenda

Hidden: inconspicuous, non-obvious. Agenda: schedule, plan, idea, to do list.

The large flake is what I meant to capture. The funny, "bad" flake was not even noticed until viewing of photos later.

See if you can find the "bad" flake. He's pretty small, so you might have to click on the picture to view it larger. Let me know what it is that the flake looks like. I thought it was pretty funny.

Mom, you know where it is, no cheating!

This is the bracelet that RAS's parents gave me for graduation last spring.

Love: amore, to care for someone. Letters: pieces of paper that come in folded up pieces of paper with a sticky piece of paper on the front and some ink scribbled out.

Pale Artiodactyl - Day 33

Day 33: Pale Artiodactyl

Pale: light rose, almost peach colored. Artiodactyl: even toed.

This is Wilda. She sits on my desk, keeping the silver piggy bank company. The bank was a gift from my parents for graduation. It's a silver pig with a red gingham bandana. He is quite full of character. =]


You were so eager to see today's photo you didn't even notice the new header up top, did you? I'm kidding, of course you saw it! I decided I needed some sort of update, and that happily only took about 5 minutes.

Frosty Foot - Day 32

Day 32: Frosty Foot

Frosty: snowy, frozen. Foot: doggy toes.

Poor thing was cold.

Bonus photos!

Here is what I made for the drama department as a good luck charm for their performance at the state one act competition. They perform at 11:45 am on Friday in Brandon Valley, SD. Break a Leg SHS S.T.A.R.S.!

I wrote a little note to accompany the jar of 100 lucky stars.

"Dear Alice Ensemble,
You are probably wondering what exactly this is all about, right? Well, what you hold in your hand is a jar of 100 lucky stars. They will help to guide you and remind you of all the hard work you have done to get to this point.

As I made each star, I remembered many things about my own experiences at state competition. I remembered being stressed out during hell week and nervous during the competition performance. But I also remembered all the enjoyable, fun times I had as well. Remember those good and bad times, and treasure them. You may not realize it, but you have learned a great deal in the past weeks.

Take a look around you. These people are not only your friends, they are your family. Some you have known for a while, others you met when rehearsals started. If you think about it, it’s amazing how different your life is with just one new person in it.

You are telling a story with every movement, every sound, and every word. Everyone, on and off the stage are telling a story. So:

Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.
