Headway

I should really be doing work right now, but I have no desire.  So instead, I figured it was about time I updated this thing, even though I don't have any exciting news really.  The only thing that I've actually knocked off of my list since last Monday was developing my own film, but I listed it as '66.    Develop my own film and make my own prints'.  So it's only a half, really, since I haven't done any printing.  Anyways, check it out:

Just a shot from my phone's camera, but you get the drift.  I was actually surprised the film even developed, I thought for sure I'd ruin it.  I did end up scratching it a bit, but it seemed like I only really hurt the pictures that I didn't like as much.  Oh well, we'll see what's up when I get around to printing!

I have a few videos of myself doing some covers of songs, but they're pretty bad so I think I'm going to hold onto those, lolz.  Actually, the main reason is that they're upside-down, since my laptop's webcam is strange, and I don't have any video editing software to fix it up.  Really I'm just being lazy, but maybe I'll post one next time.  Instead, I'm going to leave you with a dashing picture of Jesse Cline that was from the roll of film I had developed last time I posted:

101 - 1 = 100

While these pictures were taken before I started this list yesterday, I did finally develop them today and I feel like posting a few anyways.  I think it counts.  Also, I made a guitar slide today along with a few mugs from the rest of the wine bottles, pretty relaxing way to spend an afternoon.

This is a shot of a sunset in Pacific Beach, a little south of the pier.  I'm a sucker for sunsets, and I'm really loving the film feel.  It's trickier and more expensive, but holding the pictures in your hand the first time you see them has a really satisfying novelty to it.  I need to find an accessible dark room around here but the only one I could think of, which would presumably be affiliated with the UCSD photography club, apparently doesn't really exist because the photo club here is full of people with point and shoot cameras.

Quintessential garage shot, taken when Shela and Jesse visited.  Miss you guys!  This picture is very typical, although the Cutlass has since been sold off and hopefully is enjoying a new life of, well, actually living.



I have a bunch more pictures (read: 22, considering these came from the same roll of film...) that I'll probably post as filler when I'm not completing any goals.  I'll post some shots of my guitar slide and mugs when I get a good picture of them.  I'd do it now, but alas, I'm drunk again and apparently not making any progress on #32.  Oops.  Also, this capitalization and syntax tomfoolery will probably be gone within the next few weeks as I'm sure I'll be getting very lazy about.  I know, it's suchhhh an interesting point, but you're the one reading my blog SO DEAL WITH IT

<3 gan

what?

So, I decided to make this blog based on the challenge to do '101 things in 1001 days' (the idea of which I stole from Shea--THANKS LOL). Basically, you make a list of 101 things you'd like to accomplish within 1001 days. It's very complicated. Typically I'd keep something like this to myself, but I listed a few things that I'd like to publish throughout the next few years (photographs, songs, etc.), so I thought it'd be fitting to BLOG ABOUT IT. Anyways, the first step; here's the list:

ohhhhh nelly

 















blank post to help with formatting lol. figured i'd play with posting an image, too--i miss my baby.


also, the first suggestion for labeling this post is 'scooters'. haha.
