I finally developed this roll of BW from the photo shoot of nina. It was hard to choose which ones to print, she looks stunning in all of them. I have two new favorites. My photo class is officially ended.....very sad.
I cannot believe I got a B in my drawing class. I almost wanted to tell my teacher "ARE YOU CRAZY!" when one misses 4 classes and fails to turn in 2 assignments and to quote my teacher does "most poorly" on their final project, a B is just not deserving. Seriously (and I loved my final project, how insulting) But instead, I told myself to shut up and take what you can get and just don't tell the girl over there who is crying over her C, just walk away. And that's how it went. My teacher is very different! But aren't we all. I am just glad its over!
RBC and camping last weekend. Double the fun! I got a picture of a bug in the scary shower. Crescent City is a very relaxed build compared to Oviedo; very chilled.
April went by so fast! It's crazy now with only 2 meetings a week how easy it is to not talk to people from your own hall for such a long time and so much can happen in what feels like no time at all.
My mom is having a Live Art Night in June. How classy. Unfortunately, the date interferes with the Kamine out west adventure which I was going to join them on. I'm off to bed. Goodnight star, goodnight moon, goodnight you.

Schumannananan is the name
I was making myself a lunch for tomorrow and sometimes you just run out ways to make the usual sandwich interesting. However, I did get some free slightly old spinich, kale and other various sorts of greens. So I sauted these baby greens with kelp powder and chili powder and garlic! It was so good and I still have a huge pot of kale. As I was pouring out the water I boiled the kale in, I was thinking... I bet the old boiled water now has most of the nutrients. Considering the leaves are much smaller and smushed, I bet that boiling water just zaps all the nutrients out with their size. It was hard to throw the actually nutrient enhanced water away, so I saved a cup of it and will try gulping it down tomorrow morning!
My dad made a truly Schumann concoction. He poured orange juice, tons of chlorophyl and water together. He hardly even thought about. I didn't know he liked the chlorophyl stuff too. I tried and added apple juice. It was pretty tasty! I would say it was very close to those fancy naked juices

too soon
It is so sad my photo class is almost over. I am going to miss it so much. We only had to do 3 portfolios this semester and its not enough!

what a jolly day
The flu/cold/virus/monoksfhihfiaba?... Such A BUMMER. At first I was so scared I was getting Ben's mono, but I feel a lot better today so I think I am clear. It was a very boring, painful, and sore weekend glad its over.
You have the power to make any uneventful day quite significant- Just enjoy one of 5 Guys burgers and fries juicy, deliciously mouth watering hamburgers. Personally I feel the fries are unnecessary. They are too good to be true and under 5 dollars! Make sure you put jalepenos on it, unless your allergic. It really compliments the meat. And don't forget the pickles!! I think that is actually where the juicy part comes from, there a vital condiment. Seriously, its been way too long since I've had one, almost a year to be precise.
I bought some larger paper to just print some of my favorite photos on. Big paper is nothing short of phenomenal. This is just the next size up from a 8 by 11 too. So much detail and precision. I printed a few of Ava with paint on her face that I took from the beginning of last semester. I think I might try to sell some. If I sell one for 20 bucks it will pay for the paper!!! YES

what's next
The guest bedroom rocks! It has piles of pillows and like 3 of them are these soft down ones. Picasso is enjoying the company of Gidget. He is quite the social cat. I think He just needs a change of environment to spice up his life everyone once in a while. Keep him on his toes.
I started painting my room today. I love big daunting projects that seem way to big for one person to do, because when there done its awesome! Plus a little distraction from the present is refreshing. So it's a bigger project than I thought. The Dreamsicle Pink on the walls now is actually high gloss, so it won't ever come off and is washable. Therefore.. a primer is needed or else the new paint won't stick. So says the Home Depot paint specialist. Hey well turns out my dad has a big bucket of primer looking stuff sitting in the middle of the backyard... I guess I can't be too mad at him for letting all the air out of my car tires at 2 in the morning... free primer. Painting is hard work! It took me like 3 hours just to get the walls primed! Tomorrow its Torquoise and Lily pad pink. It was hard not to pick the bright loud versions of these colors, I got the cooler more soothing versions of them. I am excited.
I love my Chinese call. Its this family of pleasant nodders. There always a little rushed and attention deficit, but still listen and nod politely. Untill Mahgee gets out, the little white dog with no eyes visible eyes that is, then they just start shouting at the poor little dog who just wants to play, but the shouting is in Chinese so its all good. Everytime the same thing. Mahgee gets out. they scream. it doesn't come. 5 minutes later the Mahgee gets picked up by its leg and dragged back in. Someday maybe they too will see this cycle of events that proceed our conversations and realize that the dog never listens.
Satan has made the world such a scary place. Its hard to understand why some choose to be part of it. We all deal with problems so differently, but hiding from them is the strangest way to cope. No matter what all things will be revealed; what's the point of buying time out from reality. Why hide? Its such a weak and malleable thing to do.
I love Andrew Bird. He has some really sleepy songs, but the violin is so pretty. I like the Soldier On album best.

sunny days are coming
What a bizarre day. Awkward silences have never been my forte, but lack of communication- indefinitely worse. It can drive someone crazy! up a wall, down the street and straight to China. Are you scared of me or something!
Florida warmed up this morning. Strange bits of cold we've had. The service group was surprisingly limited today. Just the three of us. I'm guessing its just a cool down from the track campaign. The cool breeze on a sunny day was superb.
Picked up my cello today and shaky fingers need to be worked! thats all.

no its superman!!
No just a bird. Today was kind of a boring day. I like a good old hang out around the house day everyone once and while. Memorial was very nice; I love getting to say hi to faces you haven't seen in a while. My mom got in a car accident on the way. She's fine, she handled it like a pro. She was most concerned with getting her elderly passengers to the memorial. She frantically made phone calls to arrange to have at least two seats saved for the older ladies. But the poor corolla got rear ended. I guess it could totally be worse, but the I<3mycat sticker.......smashed. My mom was actually pretty sad about that. There will have to be another trip to St. Augustine to get another one of those from that oh so famous City Cat Country Cat store! It feels like this track campaign went by so fast. I feel like I hardly got to invite any of my calls. But I am excited that on older lady call said she is coming to the special talk. But I have a slight feeling she just wants to meet my family and she knows the go to the kingdom hall. She really sweet and whatever motivates you.
I miss having Avril here. I was looking at these two kids who looked a lot a like, one a foot smaller than the other, whispering to each other during the meeting and it reminded me so much of me and avril. The Schumann row has shrunk drastically! Just me and Nina now. It's strange not being the big family making all the noise, however, I do appreciate being treated like an individual. Whereas before it was always Schumann family. I feel like such an adult! Driving myself to meetings and then not having to sit with your family, because they go to different meetings. I like having freedom, but sometimes I think it would be nice to have some parent telling you what to do. Like curfew, for example, I really enjoyed thinking I have to go home I have a driving curfew! There are definitely ups and downs to both sides. On the other side, the idea of a parent telling you have you to go to school for a certain amount of time seems so absurd! I like the concept of making personal decision on what you will do because you know its right and not because your told. But sometimes you need that push from someone.
So Picasso was actually active today. He was playing with a ball. Like some kind of dog or something- says nina.
What do you think you are cat! Lately he has seemed so bored. Like right now he is just staring at the wall. I gotta go give him some playing . see yea!
