Last night was kind of a late night, phil and I decided to go out and take some photos.  We drove around and were having a bit of trouble finding the right kind of place at the time.  We decided this old park we used to go visit actually had a few lights, and a decent sized soccer field with some bleachers.  The park was supposed to close at 11pm, but we ended up going at around 1am.  Close to the end of our little photo session a guy came out of nowhere with his dog, and that was a little frightening. 

After this we hit up the top of the maple grove transit parking garage to check out the cars driving by on the freeway.  

Tomorrow I'm assisting a shoot for Gregg Segal.  Some dairy farm is sponsoring a runner here, and we're doing the cover for Runner's World.  

ummm

I just fell out of my bed and nearly landed on my Macbook Pro.  That would have sucked pretty bad, but we're all safe on the home front now.  

Off to buy a charger for my cell phone!  

I challenge myself to take a cool picture between hear and wal mart.  Wal mart is about....... half a mile away from where I live.  

now, do I take my car or a scooter.....

cute day

yesterday phil and i hit up ikea and mall of america.  both of which are a guaranteed good time.  got some stuff for his house in eau claire at ikea and then headed to the mall.  basically we just walked around for hours looking at graphic design, trying to figure out some stuff for a logo.  The amount of design out there is insane, but we learned a lot of good things for some stuff we've got coming up.

All I ended up buying at MOA were two magazines.  AP magazine (had my first photo in AP, pretty stoked) and National Geographic.  bummer though, NG likes to have multiple covers, so I had already bought this one.  Oh well, some really amazing photography in it.  

Today I applied for a community college, so I'll be able to get in just fine.  I'm going to do a two year transfer program, that way I can transfer out sometime and get a bachelors degree in something.  Then later in the day I hung out and watched Project Runway.  I feel kind of lame admitting that, but it's really entertaining to watch.

For the record, Sigur Ros is the most inspirational group of musicians I have ever heard.  I could seriously just put their cd Takk on my ipod and listen for years.  Tonight I caught part of their DVD over at phil's and wow.. it's really amazing.  Iceland seems to have some of the most beautiful countryside, and it's crazy how few people live there.

Tomorrow = first band practice.  Virtues here we come!

woops.

i just spent a weekend in wilmar, mn, at sonshine music festival.  it's christian based with some of the biggest christian musicians out there.  ranging from august burns red to third day to as i lay dying to newsboys.  it was a great time, and just added a few things to my good memories bank.

so tomorrow i'm applying at college, applying for MORE jobs, coaching another soccer game and hitting up tea garden for a good old smoothie and having a business meeting about a clothing line.  i need to get some more promo shoots in here.  

warped tour is soon and i am far from excited for it.  to be honest, if i don't get a photo pass, i doubt i'll attend.  there are a lot of good acts this year, but after being at cornerstone and sonshine, warped tour is going to be a frustrating experience, but hey maybe it'll be fun.    

alright

new blogspot.  what up.

today I've scheduled:

Job interview

College interview

and I'm trying to set up a meeting to get back into karate.

Tonight my friend phil and I are coaching his little brother's soccer game.  All I know is they're going to win their first game of the season tonight.  

I want to use this blog mainly for photography and everything, but I haven't taken any photos today, and all the old stuff is on my flickr.  I'll work on getting a shot up here tonight, maybe from the soccer game or something.  Catch you cowboys on the flipside!
