Life in 35mm (cont.)

I picked up some more devel­oped film today, which fea­tured some shots of recent week­end trips with the guy. Also, I’ve been work­ing with Spe­cial Ed Sum­mer school pro­grams through­out the city. It’s been inter­est­ing, I must say. Prior to last week, I hadn’t done Pre-K work in quite some time; I for­got how wild those kids can be (I even got bit, and a giant Lego to the groin). This week I returned to the mid­dle school world. Meh.

Oh, and I’m going to see No Doubt next week. Hella Good, yo!

A Diff Bay

Went to the Mon­terey Bay Aquar­ium, which was cool and all, but the huge pop­u­la­tion of annoy­ing tourists (we were just reg­u­lar tourists, hehe) with out-of-control chil­dren made it dif­fi­cult to enjoy the beauty of it. I wish peo­ple respected the “NO FLASH” rule when shoot­ing pho­tos of ani­mals; I’m sure they’re most-likely already freaked out enough that they’re locked in lit­tle boxes. I also wish Mon­terey had bet­ter food, too. But hey, I did see, prob­a­bly the cutest thing ever: a sleep­ing Otter. *giddy*

Oh, and today is my Mother’s 53rd birth­day. Happy Birth­day, Heidi.

:D :D :D

I think I need recon­struc­tive surgery now, to fix my face after smil­ing so hard. What a day bright­ener! Thanks Beb.

Summer So Far: Film, Travel, Dude

Dude…I got some film developed:

Peo­ples,

The spirit of Sum­mer is alive in the city by the Bay. Though it seems hecka foggy 75% of the time, there is that 25% of warm Sun that emerges, push­ing us to run wild in the streets, lie in the park watch­ing cotton-clouds swim by through the blue, and drink tall cans wher­ever the hell we feel. It’s nice feel­ing this good. I kick-started my Sum­mer in Vegas with the now-boyfriend (wait, whaaaa?) and then went on a quick trip to South­ern Cal­i­for­nia to attend adult Sum­mer camp at the Michelsen Com­pound. I’m still amazed at how much fun and trou­ble we got into within the small hell-hole that is Cov­ina (it’s very bitter-sweet, you know this). Who wants to skate more pools? I need to learn some tricks!

Any­hoo, I hope you’re all well. Big ups to Matthew for the fresh, new EM look. Let’s get cray-cray in the blo­gos­phere! I want to know what is up!

Xoxo,

Mikeo

P.S. Let this get you pumped:
