Dream

The last thing I feel is this lighter than air, soaked in atmosphere connected, floating sensation. I'm part of the world.  I've felt this before waking up, but haven't remembered.

Anyhow, my dream:  David and Ted called me over to talk about photographing a soccer game.  I grabbed an sb800 and was about to run out into the field, nothing holding me back, but they held me back.  Then I realize it's more of an interview, and there are at least 7 other photographers waiting there (including Tumia and Brandon from last year).  I end up leading them in the general conscensus that now is as good a time as amy to hire (they wanted to wait until after college).  And that we're all so different, and my strengths could be this photographer's weakness and vise versa.  Then, I realized I was in front of an elevator and saw a sequence of people through the window in the elevator.  I felt restrained, like I wanted to repect the people and not photograph them, yet I saw a child in a chicken suit and thought "awe, hell, better get it."  It was ironic but also a bit disturbing to see that.  Then the child grew so that he was as tall as his parent.

Starting Off my New Blog

I considered continuing my "Through my eyes, summer in Pittsburgh" thing but didn't like the title (a bit too want to be pretentious) so I'm just making this one for my work and thoughts about it.  As I've been having a rough time sleeping lately (break-up withdraw symptom - a new and depressing condition), I've come to realize that by letting out my thoughts and displaying my images in a forum I will be practicing one of the best therapy methods.  From this point forward, I want to always find time to recollect dreams, experiences, and memories to help me work towards resolving certain challenging factors in my life (anything from insomnia to bleak and snowing Rochester Spring - seriously though - snow in April, what the hell?).

Even just writing these few resolutions makes me feel a bit lighter (but it could be the tequila and orange juice... I needed a little boost before finishing this jagged impressionistic flower drawing for class tomorrow morning... I know, no excuses...).

Anyhow, I'm just going to practice some stream of conscious Blah Blah Blah, and work shit out.  In the meanwhile though - Water and Sleep!

Will upload photos and more tomorrow dear Bloggy Blog.
