I haven't been on this website for some time now. I'm almost done with school and can't wait to enter grad school. I'm also transitioning out of waiting tables and entering the freelance world. Pirates 4 this summer.....can't wait. Now I can also get back to photography. I'll be heading to chicago on the 27 of may so if any of you have ideas of cool places i should check out or cool people to snap photos of let me know

update....Incubus = Badass.....

Update. OK...went to houston and ran into a few familiar faces...well never knew them but recognized them from SG. The bar scene in H-Town is very confusing. Now back home and getting ready to upload pics from the trip. Only bad thing is.....I left the camera in Raw so now i'm stuck with these huge files .

I need to blog more....ok Smiley in a nutshell ---------

One final this week and I'm done.
Happy about next semesters classes
Happy to see all my friends again during the holidays
All around happy

*Funny Story*
Went to a lesbian bar by accident stayed for an hour and never felt so out of place.
Story
I've never felt so lost, happy, confused, joyful, and wierd all at the same time. So the perks of These Guys: I love hanging out with them, they all bring to the table, funny as hell, all around good guys. Now this is where things go strange for me.

In order for one of These Guys to have a good chance hooking up with his female friend, the other Three Guys tag along for the ride.

"There are four of us Guys for those not sure"

So start at The Mix....head to Nolan and 37 South then bring it back around to I-10 and Hilderbrand...finishing at Cypress and San Pedro making it an all around 15 min non stop ride just to end up in the same area from the start.

Ok, so wasting gas no problem. Ok this chick that is hooking up with This Guy has friends. Thing look better for the rest of us Three Guys.

"Now to make sure your following along I'm part of the Three Guys."

So we head into The City and there is a cover charge. Ok. No problem 5 bucks to help out our friend... it's all good. Feeling good about helping out one of the bros we head in. As we enter the smiles on our faces grow larger with every step as we cannot help but feeling that we've been set up. I always thought my first gay bar experience would happen due to the fact that I'm utterly drunk and being dragged along. 3 out of the 4 of us are sober including me. So we step into this gay/lesbian, female, demographically black oriented bar. I cannot stop laughing the entire time there and one of the Three Guys feels threatened for his life since he is the only minority there.... White. Good thing we only have 40 minutes before the bar closes so we stick it out. The Three Guys are in the vicinity of the female friends while This Guy branches off to seal the deal with this girl he's talking to. As us Three Guys stand sipping on our drinks we notice that this chicks friends are pretty interested in each other. Soooo we stay wise and let them get their thing on.

All hope is lost

At least This Guy is getting somewhere with his Target Chick.

Bar closes

Ok now to the apartment so This Guy can get further with his Target Chick. Lets cut to the chase. So This Guy finds out that his Target Chick experimented awhile back and is completely straight now.

COME ON.....STRAIGHT NOW??? NOT TO PUT A DAMPER ON HIS PARADE BUT IF YOUR CURIOUS ONCE YOULL BE CURIOUS OR OPEN AGAIN.

So we split the apartment, time is now 6:30 a.m. and we decide to go to IHOP. Drive all the way back to Broadway to enjoy some Bacon, egg, Cheeseburgers. Delicious.

What can I say, These Guys. Never a dull moment.

Ok.....So This Sunday *dramatic music build up* "THE SKATALITES"

This past weekend I went to Corpus Christi for a field trip......um yeah....a twenty-one year old college student still going on field trips. I thought it was awesome except for the fact that I expected the University to charter us, not have us drive ourselves. Well here are some snap shots







To my surprise I drove home the same night and about 5 min from town one of my students called me. These kids are so smart... they were building a DIY steadycam.

Since we have a small school budget I thought it was awesome that they thought outside the box.

This is one of them and our experimenting with hand held flash firing.


So my Good Friend Ben and his chica Ana are getting closer to their due date...





I'm not sure on the full name but I believe it's along the line of Ella____Pena

Getting ready to start school. I'm still going full speed with the outside hobbies. Finding it harder to do photography, gigging, and hanging with friends when I have to focus on school and keeping my job. Damn that truck payment. Oh well.... This past month I re-resurrected the most diabolical burger known to man. The Luther
Happy Birthday Nick
Thank You TV and Thank You Boondocks.

Finally the end of summer has come and to those who work in the service industry know our pain. Money's going to be tight around the restaurant over the next two months. Anyways we had our Employee Party and my blues band got to play. These were taken after the party at "I don't know yet" bar




I hate her secretly....
