It's been quite awhile since I've posted an update, been busy busy! And then...well...lazy lazy! ^_^
The Summer 1 quarter came to an end earlier this month, so my focus has been on finishing up some big projects for finals week. Pretty hectic! But I now have an up and running website!! My first ever!
It was quite the learning experience, I can tell ya that much, HA! I'm pretty computer savvy, but am lacking in the know-how with what it takes to get a website up. A few friends have been awesome enough to help me along the way, and I'm greatly appreciative! **you know who you are**
I also finished up the big cupcake project with my group. Which turned out fantastically! We received a lot of positive feedback. I've been told numerous times, that I should open "Petite Treats" for real! HA! If only I had a passion for baking. I'm fairly burnt out on cupcakes right now, LOL! I ended up baking a batch just to take photos...and of course, ate them all. They were quite tasty. Then I had to bake another batch a couple weeks after for the big presentation. Safe to say, I don't wanna see another cupcake for awhile ;o)
After finals, I had a full week off, so I took advantage for fun stuff. I allowed for some well deserved "lazy time" ;o) playing my PS3 (who says chicks can't play video games!), and also some time with my family. I've slacked on spending time with the nieces and nephew with being busy with school stuff, so I was missing them terribly. I absolutely HAD to see them <3 Went to a few baseball/softball games of theirs too. Initially I wanted to take my week off and head back up to Oregon *sigh* Not in the cards this year. So hoping for next year!!
The Summer 2 quarter started this week though. Hard to say how my courses are going to go...it's early yet. Sounds like I'll actually need to study for some exams though, LOL! Something I've yet to do at my University. I guess it was bound to change at some point. I'll be interning too, I'm waiting for things to start up with that. I'm also in a Photography course, which is sounding the most exciting class for the entire quarter. Today was the first day of that class, and we all went out and snapped some shots of random things from different perspectives. I started out walking around on my own, not knowing what to take photos of. It was all new to me, I'm so use to just point and shooting. It was around 100 degrees outside too, so the fun of it was nearly unbearable, lol. At one point, I ended up near this little lake behind the college where I sat and took a photo of some kind of weed. Another classmate came and sat next to me and talked about how she wanted to walk over to the train station, but was nervous. So we went together =) I debated saving some of my pics for a separate post, but heck...I'll just end the entry with a few of them. I didn't take very many, and only a couple turned out interesting. Like I said, I didn't know what kinds of things to take photos of. After seeing everybody present, I now feel a bit more inspired for future outings. So hopefully I'll be able to share my progression here. Posting my "favs" for the time being...and the rest I'll upload to my Flickr:
