Intermission: Harvard

Took the weekend+ to go visit my girlfriend at Harvard. Day 1 was pretty damn cold. Day 2 it precipitated a little bit of hail, snow, freezing rain, rain, sleet, and I think I saw some fire and brimstone. Once the sun came out, civilization came out of their hiding places. Unfortunately, for a select few people who signed up to compete in this years Head of the Charles Regatta Race, they had to row in that nasty weather with nearly nobody to cheer them on. Sucks majorly. I didn't get any photos of the race for obvious reasons. But I did get a few photos of other stuff.

Blog Fail #1

WOW. Ok, so I'm not dead. I promise. I know August was my last post, and it is now October. Yes, I fail. However, not to make excuses or anything, but I've been a little busy, as you'll see. Between the Missourian (which is awesome), a 3000 level and 4000 level philosophy class (I've never taken a philosophy class before), work (for $), and life, my blog kind of got pushed under the carpet. If I were to make several posts to highlight each assignment that i've done, many would get lost. So what I decided to do was post a link to my profile page on the Missourian's website. Here, you can find all my online-published work. I know, it's a lot, I'm sorry. I will make a conscious effort to update more often.

First two published Missourian Assignments

For those of you who don't know, this is my semester working as a staff photographer for the Columbia Missourian. It is a student staffed paper run by the University. It's real-world experience. We do everything that paid journalists do everywhere else in the U.S. I will be linking to the publications site to showcase the work that makes it online. I may also post photos that run in print, as well as the occasion photo I liked that didn't make the cut. Enjoy.

Back To School

Hickman Football in Kansas City

State University of New York at Oneonta

My parents and I took my sister up to school this past week. She'll be a freshman at SUNY Oneonta playing field hockey this year. It's a beautiful campus not to far from my parent's house, surrounded by lots of mountains and not much else. Just a few shots from the day.

Checking out the field hockey turf. While Oneonta is Division 3, the athletic fields are in great condition. The school also boasts a heated soccer field for winter practices.

Hulbert Hall - My sister's residence hall.

Due to sports, my sister had to move into her permanent room, then live in a temp room for 3 days before official move in. We brought half her stuff up with us and my parents brought the rest up later.

I think one of the things that really hits you as you start to settle into college life is the fact that everything you own, fits into a car with just enough room for you to drive. This is all her stuff minus a few things purchased up in Oneonta.
